Product Code / MPN: PC42E-TB02200 (Black)
Brand: Honeywell
Bring reliable, heavy-duty printing to your dispatch desk, warehouse floor, or retail stockroom with the Honeywell PC42e-T. This compact desktop label maker is designed for businesses that need to produce crisp courier shipping labels, inventory tracking tags, or price stickers day after day. Its compact footprint means it sits comfortably in tight workspaces while still offering the rugged build needed for daily industrial use.
The PC42e-T supports both thermal transfer printing (using an ink ribbon for long-lasting, smudge-resistant labels) and direct thermal printing (printing directly onto heat-sensitive rolls without ink), allowing you to adapt to any labelling task.
Please Note: This specific manufacturer model number does not include a mains power cord in the box. You will need to supply or purchase a compatible power lead separately.
