Description

TSC SP-MB240-0028 Media Sensor Assembly

Overview

The TSC SP-MB240-0028 is a media sensor assembly designed to ensure accurate media detection and feeding for TSC MB240 series printers, specifically when using linerless label stock. This component is critical for maintaining print quality and preventing media jams in high-volume printing environments. Its integration allows the printer to correctly identify the start and end of each label, crucial for applications requiring precise label placement and cutting, such as product identification or shipping labels.

Compatibility

This media sensor assembly is engineered for direct compatibility with the TSC MB240 series of direct thermal printers. It is specifically designed to work with linerless media types, ensuring proper functionality with the printer's linerless cutter and tear-off kits. It supports media widths ranging from 20mm to 114mm (0.8-in to 4.5-in), accommodating a broad spectrum of label sizes for various industrial and commercial applications.

Installation Notes

Installation requires opening the printer chassis to access the media path. The assembly connects to the printer's mainboard via a specific connector, detailed in the printer's service manual. Proper alignment is critical for accurate media sensing. The operating environment for the printer itself should be maintained between 5°C and 35°C (41°F to 95°F) with 30% to 75% non-condensing humidity to ensure optimal performance of the sensor and the printer.
