Would this printer work with metal paper?

Yes the thermal transfer printers will print metal foil type labels that are mate finish foil or glossy foil finish.

can you print good weather proof labels with this printer. Like the ones used on cars in wrecking yards

Yes, but that comes down to more of the material of the label and the type of ribbon you are using. You will want a synthetic or film label and a resin only type ribbon (not wax) to stand a chance for it to face the weather. Another option would be to print out the label and then put a sealer over it.

In the product description -- halfway down the page -- it is called a TTP-245 -- but at the top of the page, it is called a TTP-247. ... Which one?

Good morning Richard,It is a TSC TTP 247.Thank you

Yes it comes with a Windows label software for creating and saving your labels to your PC or laptop.
