TSC Auto ID printer receives award
TSC Auto ID’s MB241 Series linerless printer has won a Red Dot Design Award: Product Design 2025 in the Industrial Equipment, Machinery, and Automation category.
“We are thrilled the MB241 Series linerless printer has been singled out by one of the world’s most prestigious industrial design award programs,” says Michelle Hu, director of product management at TSC Auto ID. “From the start, our vision for the MB241 series linerless was to innovate an industrial printer that enables organisations to be more productive and environmentally responsible.”
The MB241 Series is one of just a few linerless printers built for industrial use, it supports variable label lengths on one paper roll, accommodates 60% more labels per 8-inch OD roll than traditional printers, and enables more efficient operations, free from liner-peeling and disposal.
The MB241 Series linerless printers address adhesive residue buildup with a design that reduces contact points, enables easy print alignment adjustment, and includes safety features for quick, safe cleaning.
