TSC TTP Series Desktop Barcode Printers (TTP-247 / TTP-345)
The TTP-247 thermal transfer desktop barcode printer delivers high performance at an affordable price. Based on the design of its best-selling predecessor, the TTP-245 Plus, the TTP-247 runs at an impressive 7 inches per second, printing up to 4 inches wide at 203 dpi resolution.
The TTP-345 is the high-resolution model in the series, offering 300 dpi printing at 5 inches per second — ideal for smaller text, dense barcodes, or fine graphic detail. Both models offer 8MB of SDRAM and 4MB of onboard Flash memory, expandable with gigabytes of additional storage via an onboard SD card reader.
Key Features
- High print speed: 7 ips on the TTP-247 (203 dpi)
- High-resolution printing: 300 dpi on the TTP-345, for small text and dense barcodes
- Expandable storage via onboard SD card reader (up to 4GB)

- Durable, reliable construction built for daily production use
Applications
Shipping and receiving, compliance labeling, asset tracking, inventory control, document management, shelf labeling, product marking, specimen labeling, and patient tracking — across manufacturing, retail, and healthcare settings. The TTP-247 has notably been used in agricultural weight-measurement applications, such as banana farm labeling.
