The TSC DH220LNHC (DH220LNHC-A001-0012) is a 2-inch healthcare desktop label printer for direct-thermal printing at 203 dpi and up to 203 mm/s (8 ips), with a max. print width of 54 mm. Its white, antibacterial and disinfectant-ready housing with sealed buttons and an IEC 60601-1 medical-grade power supply suit hospitals, laboratories and pharmacies. A 3.5" colour touch display makes setup and status checks quick. A factory-fitted guillotine cutter cuts labels and wristbands to length. A built-in HF RFID encoder (13.56 MHz, ISO/IEC 15693, 14443 A, NFC) encodes RFID labels and wristbands as they print. It holds large label rolls up to 165 mm (6.5") OD, handles labels, tags and patient wristbands 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 USB host. Supplied with power supply, EU power cord and USB cable – ready to print.
