Description
End of life. TSC has discontinued the TDP-245 and it is no longer built or supplied as a new unit. It stays listed here because it is still asked for by name and there are a great many of them still working in Indian shops and warehouses. It was a direct thermal desktop that was cheap to run and easy to keep going, which is exactly why so many of them lasted. We still carry printheads, platen rollers and spares for it, and we still service them in house.

If you are replacing one rather than repairing it, the TSC DA220 is the closest thing in the current range, being the same 4 inch direct thermal desktop at 203 dpi. If your TDP-245 has started printing faintly or dropping lines down the label, that is nearly always the printhead or the platen roller, and on this model it is usually still worth repairing.
