TLS 2200® Thermal Labeling System

The TLS2200® Thermal Labeling System is the fastest, easiest and smartest label printer you can get your hands on. This printer weighs only 2.75 lbs and offers thermal transfer print quality, internal memory, barcoding capabilities and much more.

This printer is capable of meeting almost every one's printing needs. It utilizes Brady's smart cell label technology, which means it has the ability to recognize label sizes and required printer setting which automatically eliminates wasted time and materials.

When discussing any applications with your customers you will want to be sure to ask them what type of surface they will be applying these labels to. We have three types of surfaces we use for reference:

  • Smooth (Examples: Uncoated metal, plastic and glass)
  • Textured/Rough (Examples: Textured ABS, cast metal and polycarbonate)
  • Highly textured/Low Surface Energy (Examples: Powder coated, low surface energy ABS, polypropylene)
Circuit Board Labels

The chart below shows which material you want to recommend for each of the surfaces and adhesive types.
