Key Features That Make TTP-244 Pro Stand Out
Dual Thermal & Thermal Transfer Technology
Unique dual-mode capability allows both direct thermal printing (without ribbon) and thermal transfer printing (with ribbon) using the same printer. Maximum flexibility for different labeling applications.
Professional 203 DPI Resolution
Crystal-clear barcode and text printing at 203 dots per inch ensures perfect scannability. Barcodes scan reliably on first attempt, reducing errors and improving workflow efficiency.
Industrial 5 IPS Print Speed
Fast 5 inches per second printing speed processes high-volume labeling tasks quickly. Print hundreds of labels per hour without bottlenecks in your operation.
Complete Professional Capabilities
- Dual thermal modes: Direct thermal and thermal transfer
- 203 DPI resolution: Professional barcode quality
- 5 IPS print speed: High-volume productivity
- 4.25″ print width: Wide label support up to 4.25 inches
- USB, Serial, Parallel: Multiple connectivity options
Wide Label Compatibility
Supports label widths from 1 to 4.25 inches and lengths from 0.5 to 39 inches. Compatible with various label materials including paper, polyester, polypropylene, and specialty materials.
Rugged Industrial Construction
Built for demanding environments with durable metal frame and high-quality components. The robust print mechanism is rated for millions of labels, ensuring long-term reliability.
Large Roll Capacity
Accommodates label rolls up to 5″ diameter, reducing the frequency of roll changes during production. Fewer interruptions mean better productivity and efficiency.
Easy Media Loading
Simple drop-in label and ribbon loading with clear pathway markings. Intuitive design minimizes training time and reduces loading errors that cause waste.
Benefits of Dual-Mode Barcode Printing
Choose the Right Mode for Each Application
Use direct thermal mode for short-term labels (shipping, receipts) without ribbon costs. Switch to thermal transfer mode for durable labels (products, assets) requiring longevity.
Reduce Label Costs
Direct thermal mode eliminates ribbon costs for temporary applications. Thermal transfer mode uses inexpensive wax ribbon for most applications, significantly cheaper than laser or inkjet.
Ensure Barcode Scannability
203 DPI resolution creates crisp, high-contrast barcodes that scan reliably with any scanner. Reduce errors and improve productivity with first-scan success rates.
Achieve Professional Results
Thermal printing produces smudge-proof, water-resistant labels that maintain professional appearance. No bleeding, fading, or quality degradation like inkjet alternatives.
Perfect for Every Industry
Warehouses & Distribution Centers
Print shipping labels, packing slips, and bin location labels efficiently. The barcode label printer handles high-volume distribution operations with industrial reliability.
Retail & Product Labeling
Create professional product labels, price tags, and shelf labels with barcodes. Thermal transfer mode ensures labels remain crisp throughout product lifecycle.
Healthcare & Laboratory
Print patient wristbands, specimen labels, and medication labels with scannable barcodes. Reliable printing supports critical healthcare identification and tracking.
Manufacturing & Assembly
Generate work-in-process labels, component identification, and quality control labels. Durable thermal transfer labels withstand manufacturing environments.
Asset Management & IT
Create asset tags, equipment labels, and inventory tracking labels. Long-lasting thermal transfer labels endure years of handling and environmental exposure.
Shipping & Logistics
Print shipping labels, tracking barcodes, and customs documentation. Fast 5 IPS speed handles high-volume shipping operations without bottlenecks.

Why TTP-244 Pro Beats the Competition
True Dual-Mode Capability
While basic printers offer only one thermal mode, the TTP-244 Pro supports both direct thermal and thermal transfer, providing complete labeling flexibility.
Industrial-Grade Construction
Budget label printers use plastic mechanisms that fail under heavy use. The TTP-244 Pro features metal frame construction for years of reliable operation.
Professional 203 DPI Resolution
Many cheap printers claim 203 DPI but deliver poor quality. TSC’s genuine 203 DPI ensures crisp, scannable barcodes that meet GS1 standards.
Proven TSC Reliability
TSC is a global leader in barcode printing technology. The TTP-244 Pro benefits from decades of engineering excellence and worldwide support infrastructure.
Better Value Than Zebra
The TTP-244 Pro delivers Zebra-compatible performance at a fraction of the cost. TPLE emulation ensures software compatibility without the premium price.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What’s the difference between thermal and thermal transfer?
A: Direct thermal prints on heat-sensitive paper without ribbon (good for short-term labels). Thermal transfer uses ribbon to create durable labels resistant to fading, heat, and moisture.
Q: Can I print on colored labels?
A: Yes! Thermal transfer mode works on colored label stock. Direct thermal mode requires special thermal paper (typically white or light colored).
Q: What barcode types does it support?
A: All standard 1D barcodes (Code 39, Code 128, UPC, EAN, etc.) and 2D barcodes (QR Code, Data Matrix, PDF417). Compatible with all major barcode standards.
Q: Do I need special software?
A: No! The printer works with any label design software, or use the included BarTender Lite software for label design.
Q: How long do thermal transfer labels last?
A: With proper ribbon selection, thermal transfer labels can last 5-10+ years outdoors and indefinitely indoors without fading or degradation.
Q: Is it compatible with Zebra label software?
A: Yes! The TPLE (Eltron) emulation ensures compatibility with software designed for Zebra/Eltron printers without modifications.
Q: Can it print on receipt paper?
A: Yes! It can print on continuous thermal paper in direct thermal mode, though it’s optimized for label printing rather than long receipts.
Q: What ribbon types should I use?
A: Wax ribbon for paper labels (most economical), wax-resin for durability, or resin ribbon for synthetic materials and extreme conditions.
Care and Maintenance
Keeping Your TTP-244 Pro in Peak Condition
Print Head Cleaning: Clean the print head every 5 ribbon rolls using isopropyl alcohol cleaning pens. Regular cleaning maintains print quality and extends head life.
Platen Roller Cleaning: Clean the rubber platen roller monthly to remove adhesive residue. Clean rollers prevent feeding issues and maintain consistent print quality.
Sensor Calibration: Recalibrate sensors when changing label types or if printing accuracy degrades. Automatic calibration takes seconds and ensures perfect registration.
Storage: Store labels and ribbons in cool, dry conditions. Excessive heat or humidity can affect print quality and material performance.
