Brother TD-Series Networked Direct Thermal Label Printer
Brother TD-4420DN Desktop Label Printer
The networked TD in this range, and a direct thermal engine — no ribbon and no ink to run out. The TD-4420DN prints wristband, continuous, die-cut, fan-fold, perforated and tag media from 19 mm up to 118 mm wide, at up to 203.2 mm per second and 203 dpi, adding USB and network connectivity over its TD-4410D sibling.
Quick Glance
Key Features
203.2 mm/sec on labels up to 118 mm wide
The TD-4420DN is a 4-inch wide-format engine built for barcode, shipping and identification labels. It prints at up to 203.2 mm per second and 203 dpi across media from 19 mm up to 118 mm wide, the same print engine as the TD-4410D.
Wristbands, tags, die-cut and fan-fold media
One printer handles wristband, continuous, die-cut, fan-fold, perforated and tag stock, so the same machine that prints a shipping label roll can also cut a die-cut label or tear off a fan-fold batch, without switching to a different printer for each media type.
Networked, direct thermal — no ribbon to change
Brother's own page describes this as a direct thermal printer, which needs no ribbon or ink cartridge, and adds USB and network connectivity over its TD-4410D sibling, so it can sit on the network as a shared printer rather than being tethered to a single PC.

Need-to-Know
Two 4-inch desktop printers sharing the same engine, media range and 118 mm width. What changes between them is networking.
- Adds USB and network connectivity over the TD-4410D — check that your workflow actually needs the network port before paying for it, if a single USB-tethered desk is all you need.
- This is a direct thermal printer, as Brother's own page states — no ribbon or ink cartridge is used or needed. Brother does not publish a fade or heat/sunlight rating for this model, so no durability claim is made about printed labels over time.
- The cutter separates labels by die-cutting or tearing off, not by an automatic blade — check the Functions row if a specific cut style matters for your labels.
- Brother's own published specification for this model does not include a full in-box contents list — confirm what ships with your order before you buy.
| Model | Media width | Print speed / resolution | Connectivity |
|---|---|---|---|
| TD-4410D | 19-118 mm | 203.2 mm/sec, 203 dpi | USB |
| TD-4420DN (this page) | 19-118 mm | 203.2 mm/sec, 203 dpi | USB, wired network |
Pick the TD-4420DN when the printer needs to sit on the network and be shared or driven remotely. If a single USB-tethered desk is all you need, the TD-4410D does the same core printing for less.

Frequently Asked Questions
Networking. Brother's own USP bullet for this model lists 'USB, Network connectivity' where the TD-4410D's page lists USB only, and the model name itself carries the 'DN' networked suffix. The print engine, speed, resolution and media range are otherwise the same.
Yes — Brother's own tagline for this model is '203dpi Direct Thermal Barcode, Label and Receipt Printer'. Direct thermal means there is no ribbon or ink cartridge to fit or replace; the print image is created by heat on the label stock itself.
Wristband, continuous, die-cut, fan-fold, perforated and tag media from 19 mm up to 118 mm wide, at a printing width of up to 104.1 mm — one printer for barcode rolls, shipping labels, tags and wristbands.
Brother does not publish a fade rating or light/heat exposure spec for this model, so we cannot state a durability figure here. If long-term label legibility in a hot or sunlit location matters for your application, ask us and we can talk through the trade-offs of direct thermal versus ribbon-based printing.
