The new TD-2D range, which replaces the TD-2 series of devices, comprises 11 new two-inch thermal label printers, and includes models with the ability to print on linerless labels for the first time. Two new models in the range are linerless compatible, the TD-2320DFC and TD-2350DFC. By removing the non-recyclable backing paper typically used to deliver the labels, businesses are able to reduce waste and improve productivity, saving time by going straight from print to application. TD-2D devices aren’t one-size-fits-all and can be easily customised, giving partners the opportunity to shape bespoke models for customers’ needs. Available accessories include an auto cutter for variable label lengths from continuous printing, as well as a peeler to simplify label backing removal and streamline operations. A battery pack and carry handle is also available to support on-the-go operations. Users can create and print labels from a 3.5” colour touch screen and keyboard, eliminating the need to connect to laptops and external tablets. This feature is available for the TD-2D DSA models, offering customers a standalone solution and the option to create shortcuts to frequently printed labels. All models have also been upgraded to the USB type-C, and the TD-2350D, TD‑2350DSA and TD-2350DFC are Wi-Fi and Bluetooth compatible. Simon Brennan, Senior Business Manager – Specialist Printing Solutions at Brother UK said: “The new range delivers on the full suite of features customers expect from our TD-2s. We’ve also seen increasing demand for linerless labelling and our upgraded range taps into this, to help businesses seeking to enhance productivity, make sustainability gains, reduce waste, and improve health and safety.’’ www.brother.co.uk SRP-380plus 3-inch Thermal POS Printer
