TSC Printronix Auto ID launches affordable new desktop and mobile printers specifically for healthcare environments

To support staff in busy healthcare settings like laboratories, hospitals, care homes, pharmacies and GP practices, TSC Printronix Auto ID has just launched healthcare variants of its TH DH Series of desktop printers and the Alpha-30LHC mobile printer, all encased in easy-to-clean, antimicrobial plastic. The devices will print barcode labels for tasks like specimen and pharmacy labelling as well as patient identification/tracking to improve operational efficiency.

The TH DH Series desktop printers are available in robust 2-inch and 4-inch versions, with 203 dpi or 300 dpi print options in each. Encased in bright white antibacterial enclosures, these rugged devices can print up to 7,000† labels a day. Effortless to integrate and use, and with enhanced security, these devices will produce high-quality labels on a wide variety of media, including linerless.

For affordable, on-the-go printing in healthcare environments, TSC Printronix Auto ID has also just added the Alpha-30LHC mobile printer to its popular Alpha Series 3-inch range. Encased in a robust, disinfectant-ready, grey and white plastic, the Alpha-30LHC is lightweight, comfortable, can print labels on demand and is rugged enough to withstand multiple drops of up to 2.5 metres.

“Our mobile, desktop and industrial barcode label printers are used in healthcare and pharmaceutical settings all around the world but these are our first devices to be specifically manufactured in wipeable, antibacterial plastic to reduce the spread of germs,” says Bob Vines, UK, Ireland & Nordics country manager for TSC Printronix Auto ID. “They can withstand a number of different disinfectants, chemicals and cleaning solutions, and the TH DH versions have a sealed membrane button.“

Integration and deployment of the TH DH Series is seamless, label templates remain the same even when switching from other printer brands. Remote real-time monitoring and management, and self-diagnostic TPH Care make for fast trouble- shooting and maximum uptime. Enhanced security helps protect networks from cyber-attacks and downtime.

The Alpha-30LHC uses USB, MFi Bluetooth® or dual-band Wi-Fi to easily connect to a mobile computer or smartphone and offers fast roaming as well as enterprise-level security to ensure reliable and safe operation.

In line with TSC’s commitment to sustainability and reducing environmental impact, the TH DH Series and Alpha-30HLC can both print on linerless media, which, apart from benefits like printing labels of any length, helps reduce waste and supports sustainability objectives. Both the packaging and printers‘ plastic casings on the TH DH Series are 100% recyclable, and over 90% of the devices‘ components are recyclable too. These printers casings are also made from 30% recycled plastic.

To accompany all its range of Alpha mobile printers, TSC also used today to launch some new accessories, including battery eliminators and power supplies, as well as power adaptors, media holders, battery packs and vehicle mount release kits for forklifts. It also launched an affordable, USB-connected desktop printer, the DH220E.
