Compact 2-inch label and receipt printing with 300 dpi detail.

The Star Micronics mC-Label2 is a front-loading, front-exit direct-thermal printer for labels, linerless media, receipts, and continuous rolls. Its compact footprint, 300 dpi resolution, and adjustable 25 mm to 60 mm media path fit foodservice, retail, healthcare, and other small-format labeling workflows.

Choose an all-media cutter model for linerless, die-cut, continuous, and receipt stock, or an LBL tear-bar model for die-cut labels and receipts. Wired Ci models provide USB-C, USB-A, and Ethernet connectivity, while CWBi X4 models add Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for more flexible countertop placement.

Cutter, tear-bar, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth features depend on the selected configuration. Media compatibility also varies by all-media cutter versus LBL tear-bar models.

Flexible Media by Model

Choose the right cut and media path for the job

Current MCL21 cutter models support removable linerless, permanent linerless, die-cut, continuous, and receipt media. Current MCL21 LBL models are the tighter-fit choice for die-cut labels and thermal receipts, using a tear bar instead of the full cutter assembly.

Connected for Modern Labeling

USB-C, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth where needed

All current configurations support Star's cloud and tablet-friendly workflows with USB-C power delivery support, Ethernet, CloudPRNT Next, and SteadyLAN. CWBi X4 models add Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for tablet-based counters and mobile-friendly labeling stations.

Front-Access Serviceability

Built for quick media changes and guided maintenance

Front loading and front exit help the mC-Label2 fit under counters and against walls while keeping media swaps easy. Tool-free replacement parts, color-coded service points, maintenance alerts, and QR-linked guidance help reduce downtime in busier labeling environments.

Cloud and One-Touch Labeling

Stored templates and remote management support

One Touch Label lets users store and print up to three static labels directly from the printer, while StarIO.Online and Star Micronics Cloud Services support centralized template control and cloud-connected workflows across multi-station deployments.
