Product Overview

The Star Micronics mC-Label2 MCL21CI LBL (39653590) is a compact desktop direct thermal printer designed for compatible die-cut barcode labels and thermal receipt printing.

Part of Star Micronics' mCollection range, the mC-Label2 combines 300 dpi print resolution, a maximum printing speed of 180 mm/s, wired Ethernet networking, USB-C connectivity and CloudPRNT support.

Its compact, front-loading design is suitable for retail counters, food service preparation areas, hospitality operations, stockrooms and other business environments requiring on-demand label printing.

The MCL21CI LBL features an adjustable media guide for paper widths from 25 mm to 60 mm and supports thermal rolls up to 102 mm in diameter.

Important model distinction: The MCL21CI LBL is the die-cut label and receipt version with a manual tear bar. It does not include an automatic cutter and is not the linerless label configuration.

Customers requiring linerless adhesive labels or an automatic cutter should consider the appropriate standard MCL21 model instead.

Designed for Compact Business Label Printing

The Star mC-Label2 MCL21CI LBL is intended for businesses that require a compact, network-capable label printer.

Potential applications include:

• Retail Product Identification Labels
• Barcode and Inventory Labels
• Food Preparation Identification Labels
• Date and Time Labels
• Shelf and Stockroom Labels
• Order Identification Labels
• Hospitality Labels
• Internal Asset Identification
• Thermal Receipts

Actual suitability depends on the label dimensions, thermal media, software and operating environment.

Retail and Point-of-Sale Applications

Retail businesses may use the MCL21CI LBL for compatible product identification and stock management labels.

Its Ethernet connection allows the printer to be incorporated into supported network-based POS or inventory systems.

Potential uses include:

• Product Barcode Labels
• Stock Identification
• Shelf Labels
• Inventory Management
• Price and Product Information Labels
• Internal Goods Tracking

Compatibility with an existing POS system must be confirmed before purchasing.

Food Service and Hospitality Applications

The mC-Label2 range is designed with compact business environments in mind.

Potential applications for the MCL21CI LBL include:

• Food Preparation Labels
• Ingredient Identification
• Order Identification
• Kitchen Production Labels
• Takeaway Order Labels
• Date and Time Labels

Customers should select label materials suitable for the intended food service environment.

For direct food-contact applications, adhesive requirements, temperature resistance or regulated labeling, the media and complete application must be assessed separately.

300 dpi Direct Thermal Printing

The MCL21CI LBL uses direct thermal printing technology.

It produces printed information by applying heat to compatible thermal paper or labels.

No ink cartridges, toner or thermal transfer ribbons are required.

The 300 dpi resolution is suitable for many compact label layouts requiring fine text, graphics and barcodes.

Actual print quality depends on the selected media, print settings, application and maintenance condition.

Maximum Printing Speed – 180 mm/s

Star Micronics specifies a maximum print speed of 180 mm/s.

Actual printing performance depends on:

• Label Length
• Print Density
• Barcode and Graphic Content
• Software Configuration
• Communication Method
• Thermal Media
• Printer Operating Conditions

Maximum print speed should not be interpreted as a guaranteed production rate.

Die-Cut Labels and Thermal Receipt Paper

The MCL21CI LBL is specifically designed for compatible die-cut labels and thermal receipt paper.

Supported Paper Width: 25–60 mm
Maximum Roll Diameter: 102 mm
Media Thickness: 53–154 µm, depending on paper type

Customers should confirm the required label width, length, gap dimensions, thermal coating and roll specifications.

Linerless sticky labels are not supported by this LBL configuration.

For linerless applications, the appropriate standard MCL21 printer with the correct platen and cutter arrangement should be selected.

Manual Tear Bar – No Automatic Cutter

The MCL21CI LBL uses a manual tear bar for separating printed labels and receipts.

This model does not include the automatic guillotine cutter fitted to certain other mC-Label2 configurations.

Customers who require automatic full or partial cutting should consider the appropriate MCL21CI or MCL21CWBI model rather than the LBL version.

The printer model and part number should always be checked before ordering.

Ethernet Network Connectivity

The MCL21CI LBL includes Ethernet connectivity for compatible wired network printing.

This can support business environments where the printer is connected to a local network and accessed through suitable software.

Before purchasing, confirm:

• Network Infrastructure
• POS or Business Application
• Printer Driver
• Communication Protocol
• Security Requirements
• Host Operating System
• Network Configuration

Ethernet connectivity does not automatically guarantee compatibility with every POS or cloud application.

USB-C Connectivity and Power Delivery

The printer includes a USB-C interface with supported Power Delivery functionality.

This can simplify compatible host-device connections and power arrangements.

Power Delivery functionality depends on the connected equipment, cable and applicable specifications.

Customers should verify host-device compatibility before deployment.

USB-A Peripheral Port

The MCL21CI LBL also provides a USB-A port for supported peripheral devices.

Compatibility depends on the accessory and the relevant Star software environment.

A USB-A peripheral port should not be assumed to provide general-purpose USB host functionality for every device.

CloudPRNT and CloudPRNT Next

The mC-Label2 series supports Star Micronics CloudPRNT technologies.

CloudPRNT enables compatible applications to communicate with supported printers through a cloud-based printing workflow.

CloudPRNT Next provides additional capabilities for supported implementations.

Actual integration requires suitable application software, network configuration and technical verification.

CloudPRNT support does not mean that every web application can print directly without configuration.

Star Software and Developer Resources

The mC-Label2 range is supported by Star Micronics software and development resources, including:

• StarPRNT
• StarXpand SDK
• StarPRNT SDK
• CloudPRNT
• CloudPRNT Next
• Star PassPRNT
• Star Quick Setup Utility
• Star Label Builder
• Star Micronics Cloud Services

Compatibility depends on the selected software, operating system, firmware and interface.

Custom software development and integration are not included in standard hardware supply.

Operating System Compatibility

Star Micronics provides software resources for supported:

• Windows Environments
• macOS
• Linux
• Android
• iOS

The exact connection method and available functions vary by operating system and printer model.

Bluetooth functionality available on the CWBI variants should not be assumed for the MCL21CI LBL.

Customers should verify their specific application and host configuration.

Compact Front-Loading Design

The MCL21CI LBL measures approximately:

Width: 98 mm
Depth: 185 mm
Height: 145.5 mm
Weight: 1.6 kg

Its front-loading paper arrangement is intended to simplify media replacement in space-conscious working environments.

The printer should be installed according to the manufacturer's ventilation, access and environmental requirements.

IP22 Protection Rating

Star Micronics specifies an IP22-rated housing.

IP22 provides limited protection against specified solid objects and vertically dripping water under defined conditions.

It does not mean the printer is waterproof or suitable for washing with water.

The printer should be used and maintained according to the manufacturer's instructions.

The manufacturer's EMEA product information identifies the following standard package contents:

• Star mC-Label2 Printer
• PS65AT-24 Power Supply
