Understanding Address Label Printers
A dedicated thermal printer designed to produce clear, professional address labels for envelopes, parcels, and mail items. They print without ink or toner using either direct thermal or thermal transfer methods, making them a practical, low-maintenance choice for any mailing operation.
Direct Thermal vs Thermal Transfer
Most models in this range support both print methods. Direct thermal requires no ribbon and suits short-term address labels where longevity is not a requirement. Thermal transfer uses a ribbon for a more durable result, better suited to labels that need to withstand handling over a longer period.
Print Width and Resolution
Available in 2" and 4" print widths. The 4" format covers standard address label sizes, while 2" models suit smaller formats for internal mail and product identification. Resolution options of 203dpi and 300dpi are available, with 300dpi producing sharper text and barcodes.
Connectivity
All models connect via USB as standard, with most also offering RS232 and Ethernet ports for network integration. Select Godex and TSC models include a USB host port, and TSC models print at up to 6 inches per second for faster output in busier mailing environments.
Godex, TSC, and Zebra Printers
Our range covers models from three established manufacturers. Godex printers offer strong value across the RT and G series. TSC printers are a reliable choice for office and light industrial use. Zebra printers are widely used in logistics environments and support EPL and ZPL label formats.
