In today’s electrical industry, precision, efficiency, and durability are not optional but essential. These are the areas wherein the Brother PT-E850TKWLI industrial tube and label printer excels. Equipped with latest technology, this machine delivers superior-grade results whenever you are marking your PVC tubes, warning tags, or labels for hard environments. Its laminated TZe labels are temperature-resistant, water-resistant, fade-resistant, chemical-resistant, and abrasion-resistant, making them ideal for environments where standard labels simply won’t survive. Whether it is for residential wiring, commercial installations, or large-scale industrial projects, it provides durable, easy-to-read labels and ferrules that stand the test of time. This advanced printer also falls under CIV modules, making it a reliable choice for professional and industrial labeling needs.

Twin-Engine Technology - Two Printing Functions in One

One of the biggest innovations of the PT-E850TKWLI is its twin-engine system.

Tube Printing - Compatible with PVC tubes (φ 2 - 8 mm) for creating ferrules that fit perfectly on cables and wiring.
Label Printing - Supports TZe, HGe, and HSe (heat shrink) tapes up to 36 mm wide, with a maximum print resolution of 360 dpi for sharp, clear text and barcodes.

No switching supplies and no downtime required; you can seamlessly alternate between tube and label printing without reloading the machine.

Maximum Printability and Speed

When you’re on-site, time is money. The PT-E850TKWLI delivers:

Tube Printing - Up to 2 lines with a max print height of 6 mm.
Label Printing - Up to 17 lines, 60 mm/sec print speed, and auto/half cut functions for clean, precise edges.
Additional Printable Height - More print space means bigger text and better readability.

To make tube printing even smarter, the printer allows number sequences, repetitive text, or customized input. Data can be fed directly from Excel sheets or programmed through the built-in template, ensuring accuracy and saving time.

For tube cutting, you can also define exact lengths. For example, if a tube needs to be cut every five meters, the PT-E850TKWLI can be programmed to automatically print and cut at those intervals.

Three Ways to Print:

Keyboard Printing - Use the built-in QWERTY keyboard to design labels or tubes directly from the printer.
PC Printing - Design professional layouts using Brother Cable Label Tool (for tubes) or P-touch Editor (for labels), then send them to print.
Mobile Printing - Use the Brother Mobile Cable Label Tool or iPrint & Label app to design and print labels on the go (labels only).

Durability Meets Portability

With a rechargeable Li-ion battery (optional) and built-in WiFi connectivity, you can take the PT-E850TKWLI wherever the job takes you without being tied to a power outlet. Its compact design even lets you place the keyboard directly on top of the printer, saving valuable workspace.

Self-Service Maintenance

Unlike many industrial printers, the PT-E850TKWLI is user-serviceable. You can replace the:

Tube Cutter (PA-TC-001) - Cuts tubes to precise leng
Tube Cleaner - Removes dust and debris for clean prints.
Conveyance Rollers (PA-RL-001/002/003) - Keeps tubes moving smoothly.

This self-maintenance capability reduces downtime and service costs.
