Key Advantages

The ZebraNet TLP2824 boasts a compact design, making it ideal for tight office spaces. It offers direct thermal printing, which reduces consumable costs by eliminating the need for ink ribbons. The printer supports a variety of label types including continuous, die-cut, and black mark media. Its user-friendly interface and easy media loading mechanism reduce downtime and improve operational efficiency. The device’s multiple connectivity options enhance compatibility with existing office hardware. Additionally, the reliable printing mechanism ensures consistent output for barcode and label applications.

Limitations

One limitation of the TLP2824 is its relatively low print resolution of 203 dpi, which may not meet requirements for extremely detailed graphics or very small barcodes. It only supports direct thermal printing, lacking thermal transfer capabilities for longer-lasting labels. The maximum print width is limited to 2.2 inches, restricting its use for wider labels. The connectivity ports are legacy serial and parallel interfaces without modern USB or network options, which may pose integration challenges. It does not have built-in memory or advanced features found in newer models, limiting customization. Additionally, since this model is discontinued, obtaining spare parts and accessories can be difficult.
