Product Details

The TSC PEX-2640L and PEX-2640R Industrial Barcode Printers represent the ultimate solution for extra-wide format labeling applications, offering an unprecedented 8.2-inch maximum print width that accommodates the largest standard label formats used in industrial, warehouse, manufacturing, and logistics operations. These printers are specifically engineered for applications where standard 6-inch printers cannot meet labeling requirements, providing the extra width needed for comprehensive data presentation, multiple barcode placement, extensive text information, and large graphics on a single label.

The PEX-2640L model, with its 203 dpi resolution and 10 inches per second maximum speed, is optimized for high-volume production environments where throughput and efficiency are paramount. This model excels in applications requiring rapid printing of extra-wide labels for shipping, pallet identification, warehouse management, and industrial inventory control. The combination of wide format capability and high-speed performance makes the PEX-2640L ideal for operations processing large quantities of oversized labels without compromising productivity.

The PEX-2640R model delivers premium 300 dpi resolution for applications demanding superior print quality across the extra-wide format. This high-resolution capability is particularly valuable for labels containing detailed graphics, small text elements, high-density 2D barcodes, and professional branding elements that require exceptional clarity and precision. The 300 dpi resolution ensures that even the finest details remain sharp and readable across the entire 8.2-inch print width, making this model ideal for premium product labeling, pharmaceutical applications, electronics manufacturing, and any application where print quality is critical.

These extra-wide format printers excel in these demanding industrial applications:

Pallet & Shipping Labeling: Comprehensive shipping labels, bill of lading documents, pallet identification tags, and freight labels with extensive information, multiple barcodes, and handling instructions across the full 8-inch width.
Warehouse Management: Oversized bin location labels, rack identification tags, storage location markers, and inventory control labels with detailed information and visual identification elements for large warehouse operations.
Manufacturing & Production: Large format product identification labels, assembly instructions, quality control documentation, and production tracking labels containing comprehensive technical data and compliance information.
Retail & Distribution: Extra-wide shelf edge labels, promotional signage, price markers, and product information tags for retail environments requiring maximum visibility and information density.
Pharmaceutical & Healthcare: Large format batch labels, medical device packaging, compliance documentation, and pharmaceutical labels with extensive regulatory information, multi-language text, and detailed graphics.
Automotive & Industrial Parts: Oversized part identification labels, serial number plates, compliance markings, and technical specification labels for large components and industrial equipment.
Construction & Building Materials: Large format labels for building materials, construction components, safety information, and installation instructions requiring maximum label space.
Food & Beverage Industry: Extra-wide packaging labels with comprehensive nutritional information, ingredient lists, preparation instructions, and regulatory compliance data.

The industrial-grade construction of both models ensures reliable performance in demanding 24/7 production environments. Heavy-duty metal components, robust mechanical systems, and industrial-grade printheads provide the durability needed for continuous operation in warehouse, manufacturing, and logistics settings. The printers' substantial build quality accommodates the larger mechanical components required for 8-inch label handling while maintaining the precision essential for consistent print quality.

Advanced media handling capabilities are specifically designed for extra-wide label formats. The printers accommodate label widths from 2.0 to 8.3 inches, providing exceptional flexibility for various labeling requirements. The integrated high-precision sensor array ensures accurate media detection and perfect label positioning across the entire width, maintaining registration accuracy essential for professional labeling results. Large 8-inch maximum roll diameter capacity minimizes media change frequency, supporting extended production runs without interruption.

Comprehensive connectivity options facilitate seamless integration into existing industrial networks and enterprise systems. Standard USB 2.0, Serial RS-232, and Ethernet 10/100 interfaces provide flexible connection options, while optional wireless 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth capabilities enable mobile and flexible deployment scenarios. The enhanced memory configuration (32MB Flash, 16MB SDRAM) supports complex label designs with multiple high-resolution graphics, extensive fonts, and sophisticated data elements while maintaining rapid processing speeds.

Dual printing capability (direct thermal and thermal transfer) provides exceptional flexibility for various labeling requirements. Both printing methods deliver excellent results across the extra-wide format, with thermal transfer providing maximum durability for labels requiring extended outdoor exposure, chemical resistance, abrasion tolerance, and long-term legibility in harsh environmental conditions.

Energy-efficient operation combined with industrial-grade performance makes these printers environmentally responsible choices for high-volume labeling operations. Sophisticated power management systems optimize energy consumption while maintaining the thermal consistency essential for quality printing across the wide format, contributing to reduced operational costs and environmental impact.

Maintenance and serviceability are designed with industrial operations in mind. Modular components, easy-access service points, and comprehensive diagnostic capabilities simplify routine maintenance and reduce downtime. The industrial-grade printheads feature extended lifespans optimized for continuous operation in demanding environments.
