Size – High Performance
The 2824 ultra-compact printers incorporate proven
design features needed in today’s demanding
label printing applications. A five-inch media roll
capacity and clear media window optimize productivity
while a maximum print speed of
four inches per second enables fast job processing.
The LP/TLP 2824 feature Zebra’s OpenACCESS™
design for easy label loading, while dual-walled construction
offers durability unprecedented for a desktop printer.
And your customers have a variety of connectivity
choices including serial, parallel, USB, internal
or external ZebraNet®
PrintServer II, and cash drawer kicker interfaces.
The LP/TLP 2824 are perfect for low-volume printing
needs in business and professional offices including:
• Retail point of sale, shelf labeling, and
product marking
• Healthcare specimen labeling and patient tracking
• Inventory and asset management
• Small office/Home office mailing, shipping,
and file folder labeling
