Printers
Works with the printers you already have
We don’t sell printers or paper. Pick up labels and stock from your usual supplier — Truss Tape Plus handles calibration and print.
Works with the printers crews already use: Zebra desktop label printers, Brother QL label printers (QL-1100 over USB; QL-820NWB and QL-1110NWB over Ethernet), and any laser printer with Avery sheets. For hang tapes, we recommend the Epson TM-T20IV or TM-T20III Ethernet model (Ethernet is a separate SKU from USB-only units).
Zebra desktop label printers
For die-cut fixture, cable, and position labels. Calibrate once per printer and roll so marks stay honest.
Brother QL
- QL-1100 — USB on the computer running the app.
- QL-820NWB and QL-1110NWB — Ethernet on your local network.
Laser printer + Avery sheets
Print paperwork and sheet labels on stock you already buy. Use the alignment test page when you start mid-sheet.
Epson TM-T20IV / TM-T20III (Ethernet model) — hang tapes
- Connect the printer to your network with an Ethernet cable, and Truss Tape Plus finds it for you.
- Standard 80 mm receipt rolls. Gaff the tape to the truss — it is not adhesive stock.
- A steel tape for day-one calibration: print a short strip, measure it, apply the factor. Per printer and per roll of stock.
IT note: network receipt printers often listen on TCP port 9100. Truss Tape Plus discovers printers on your network; you should not need to type an IP address for normal setup.
Built for 1:1 with per-printer calibration and an on-tape verification ruler.
