Description

Simple USB connection with no network setup

The PT-H500 connects to a computer with a USB 2.0 cable, so there is no Wi-Fi setup and no network passwords to deal with. It is a simple, dependable option when labels are printed from one computer. Thermal printing creates the image with heat, so there is no ink to dry out and no toner to run low.

Who this label printer is for

Offices and reception desks that label folders, shelves and cabinets from one computer; small stockrooms and workshops that need consistent black-printed labels; and anyone who prefers a cable connection to a wireless one. Check the tape type and width in advance, because the manufacturer does not list them.
