The TSC DH220LN (DH220LN-A001-0002) is a 2-inch direct thermal desktop label printer from TSC's DH-L generation, printing at 203 dpi and up to 203 mm/s (8 ips) with a max. print width of 54 mm. A 3.5" colour touch display makes setup and status checks quick. A built-in HF RFID encoder (13.56 MHz) writes ISO 15693, ISO 14443A and NFC tags while it prints. It takes label rolls up to 165 mm (6.5") OD and media 10–60 mm wide, speaks TSPL-EZD with automatic EPL, ZPL and DPL emulation and connects via USB 2.0, RS-232, 10/100 Ethernet and a USB host port. Supplied with power supply, EU power cord and USB cable – ready to print, no ribbon needed.
