Product Overview
The IP300/600 (Item No. BL15114949) is classified on this page as a LAB printer, positioned as a cryogenic label printer for laboratories, research institutions, medical facilities and biological sample banks. The page gallery shows the IP300 and IP600 side by side in one photo, captioned "thermal-transfer printer"; the two units share the same body design and are both benchtop models.
The specifications section lists the applications as laboratory label printing and biological sample bank identification management, the matching ribbon field states "includes matching cryogenic ribbon", and the packaging quantity is 1 set/box. Thermal transfer is a common printing method for cryogenic label applications: the content is transferred onto the face stock via ribbon, making it more resistant to abrasion when later exposed to condensation and repeated freeze–thaw cycles.
Note: although the gallery shows both models together, the specifications section uses a generic template for printer kits and does not separately list differences such as print width or speed for the IP300 and IP600. Please confirm the actual delivered model and included contents with customer service before ordering.
Key Features
Dual
Two models shown together on one page (page gallery photo)
The IP300 and IP600 are displayed side by side in the same entry, so you can compare the appearance of both during selection; the page does not list specification differences between them, so request datasheets from customer service for confirmation.
TT
Thermal-transfer printing (page gallery caption)
The gallery captions both models as "thermal-transfer printer". The content is transferred onto the face stock via ribbon; abrasion and freeze–thaw resistance depend on the "face stock + ribbon" combination, not on the printer model itself.
Bench
Benchtop body for fixed indoor locations
Both units in the gallery photo are benchtop models, suitable for centralized label output at a fixed location in the laboratory.
Kit
Complete kit with matching cryogenic ribbon
The specifications section states "Matching ribbon: includes matching cryogenic ribbon" and packaging quantity 1 set/box, so the printer and ribbon combination is ready out of the box.

Typical Applications
Biological sample bank identification management (as stated on page)
The page lists biological sample bank identification management as an application; labels for sample accession, aliquoting and retrieval are all output from the labeling station, keeping ID and batch formats consistent across the bank.
Routine laboratory labeling
Print and apply labels for reagents, consumables and equipment on demand, avoiding handwritten labels fading or peeling off in low-temperature environments.
Label output for cryogenic consumable workflows
This printer outputs labels with cryogenic ribbon and is used with cryogenic face stocks such as LN₂ labels and self-laminating labels on this site; the temperature zone a label can ultimately enter depends on the label material's temperature rating.
Separation of labeling and label application
Label production is centralized at the device, while label application is carried out by each workstation, minimizing the time gap between records and physical labels.
FAQ
Q: What is the difference between the IP300 and IP600?
A: The page gallery shows both models together, but the specifications section does not separately list differences such as print width or speed. We recommend contacting customer service for datasheets on both models before ordering, and selecting based on print width and volume.
Q: Does this entry include one unit or two?
A: The specifications section lists packaging quantity as 1 set/box; the gallery shows the IP300 and IP600 together. The actual delivered model and included contents are subject to confirmation with customer service before ordering.
Q: Why does the specifications section list M611 / EOS2/3 / MACH4S?
A: This field is a generic template for printer kits; it lists the range of compatible models and does not mean this product includes multiple devices. See the notes on this page for details.
Q: Can the printed labels go directly into liquid nitrogen?
A: Whether a label can enter liquid nitrogen depends on the temperature rating of the label material and ribbon, not on the printer model; when selecting materials, refer to the temperature rating of the corresponding label product. All label categories on this site can be filtered by temperature zone.
Q: How does this differ from the i7100, i7500, BBP12 and M611?
A: These are all BRADY printer entries on this site: the i7100 is an industrial fixed-workstation model, the i7500 is a desktop centralized labeling model, the BBP12 is a compact desktop model, and the M611 is a mobile on-site labeling model; the IP300/600 is offered as a dual-model entry for side-by-side comparison during selection.
Selection & Usage Guide
1
Confirm the delivered configuration first
The gallery for this entry shows two models together; before ordering, confirm the delivered model, quantity and included accessories with customer service, then proceed with procurement.
2
Work back from the temperature zone to the consumables
First determine the sample storage temperature zone (LN₂, ULT freezer, refrigerated), then select the label material with the corresponding temperature rating, and confirm that the ribbon matches the face stock.
3
Verify by proofing before going live
Run one freeze–thaw verification with the actual container and actual temperature zone to confirm firm adhesion, no edge lifting and scannable barcodes.
4
Register and manage the fixed combination
Record the verified "printer + label + ribbon" combination as the laboratory standard configuration, and reorder the same combination for restocking.
Recommended Consumables
- LN₂ labels: for long-term cryogenic storage of samples in LN₂ dewars; select by container type and temperature rating.
- Self-laminating labels: a transparent tail covers the printed area while leaving a viewing window for the liquid level, suitable for containers that require both content protection and direct liquid-level reading.
- Cryogenic ribbon: purchase as a set in the same temperature rating as the face stock; it directly determines the legibility of printed content after freeze–thaw.
- Size coverage: labels on this site range from micro dots to large carton labels; select by tube diameter and information volume.
- Restocking rhythm: the device is a one-time investment, while labels and ribbons are consumed in batches; once the combination is fixed, restock uniformly.
Note: The specifications section on this page is a generic template for printer kits and does not state the print resolution, print width, interfaces or included accessory list for the IP300 and IP600 individually, nor does the page list specification differences between the two models. Please confirm with customer service and request datasheets before ordering. Whether a label can enter LN₂ cryogenic storage or autoclaving depends on the temperature rating of the label material and ribbon; do not judge by printer model. The page gallery contains promotional text and watermark information; appearance and accessories are subject to actual delivery.
Page note: The field "Printer: M611 / EOS2/3 / MACH4S laboratory label printer" in the specifications section is a generic category field; it lists the range of compatible models for printer kits and does not mean this product includes multiple devices. This product is named IP300/600, and the gallery shows both models together; the specific delivered configuration is subject to confirmation with customer service before ordering.
