The Godex RT230i is a compact 2" desktop label printer built for sharper, higher-resolution output than its 203 DPI sibling, the RT200i — making it a strong fit for smaller barcodes, dense text, or detailed graphics on retail, healthcare, and industrial labels where clarity at small sizes matters most.
Its clam-shell design keeps label and ribbon changes quick and tool-free, while a color LCD panel and one-touch calibration button minimize setup time between jobs. Ethernet, Serial, USB, and USB host ports give you the flexibility to run it tethered to a PC or standalone from external memory.
The RT230i supports EZPL, GEPL, and GZPL printer languages with auto-switching and ships with free GoLabel design software, so existing label templates and barcode workflows carry over with minimal rework. Available through Cancard with quoting, delivery, and service support across Canada and the US.
