Looking for a versatile and affordable label printer to help combat supply chain shortages? A printer in the [TSC TE Series][1] lines of printers might be the way to go.

The TE Series of printers is TSC’s entry-level printer model capable of thermal transfer printing. The series is split into two models: the [TE200][2] and [TE300][3]. The main difference between them is print resolution and speed. The TE200 prints at 203dpi and clocks in 6 inches per second while the TE300 prints at 300dpi and 5 inches per second. Both models can accept rolls of label media up to 5 inches in outer diameter and with a half-inch or one-inch inner diameter. Both models can print on Gap labels, black-marked media, fanfold, and continuous media. [If you want a quick tutorial on how to install labels and media, please see this video that TSC produced here.][4]

Related to media loading is calibration. [We’ve produced a video here][5] showing how to calibrate the printer. It’s not the most intuitive calibration process but it’s relatively straightforward compared to some other models on the market. Another thing to highlight was how to move the printer between direct thermal and thermal transfer printing. [That can be found here][6].

The printer come loaded with TSPL-EZD printer language but it can also emulate EPL, ZPL, and DPL printer languages. This means the printer should be supported by any label printing software that would support a Zebra or Honeywell printer, making this model a very convenient alternative if you’re having a hard time getting ahold of some more in-demand items.
