with barcode scannerhigh-speedBluetooth

Overview
Compact label printer designed for narrow-width labels (up to 60 mm). Supports direct thermal printing at 300 dpi and accepts label rolls up to 102 mm diameter, suitable for POS, kiosk and industrial labeling applications.

Key Points

• Installation in limited spaces
• Reduced label running costs with linerless support
• Versatile media compatibility and multi-interface connectivity

Installation in limited spaces
Front paper exit and front-opening paper replacement enable installation under shelves or in tight counters. Compact footprint (98 x 185 x 145.5 mm) while accommodating roll diameters up to 102 mm, reducing roll changes.

Contribution to reduced running costs of label paper
Supports linerless labels to lower material waste and costs; paper-saving margin reduction function available. Higher print resolution (300 dpi vs conventional 203 dpi) allows dense information on small labels for barcode, text and logos.

One printer for a wide range of use
Compatible with linerless (strong/weak adhesive), die-cut, full-surface labels and receipt paper. Adjustable paper holder accepts roll widths from 25 to 60 mm without extra guides. Interfaces vary by model and include USB-C, USB-A, Ethernet, Bluetooth® and Wireless LAN for flexible integration.

Other Features

• High-speed printing up to 180 mm/s (58 mm strong-adhesive linerless configuration) with instant start — suitable for continuous die-cut label runs
• Easy setup via Star Quick Setup Utility (iOS/Android) and label creation tools: Label Builder and One Touch Label
• SDKs and drivers (StarPRNT, StarXpand, CloudPRNT) for integration with various OS and remote printing workflows
• Sustainability: linerless reduces material waste and CO2 from liner incineration; compact packaging and partial use of biomass plastic in bags
