Zebra GT800 Barcode Printer in City

Description:

The Zebra GT800 thermal transfer/direct thermal desktop printer offers a wide range of advanced functionality to meet a variety of low- to medium-volume printing applications. The GT800 printer supports both 300 meter and 74-metre ribbon capacities without the need to change settings for different ribbon lengths. Users easily select the appropriate length for the task at hand.

Features:

Printing Performance:

• Print Method: Offers two printing methods:
  • Thermal Transfer: Utilizes a ribbon to produce high-resolution, durable labels that resist fading, moisture, and chemicals, ideal for applications in manufacturing, logistics, and healthcare. (Ribbons not included)
  • Direct Thermal: Uses heat-sensitive labels for faster printing at a lower cost, suitable for short-term labels that don't require extreme durability.
• Print Speed: Delivers a print speed of up to 5 inches (127 mm) per second, making it efficient for handling moderate printing volumes. Printing speed might be slightly slower at higher resolutions.
• Print Resolution: Offers two resolution options for different levels of detail:
  • 203 dpi (dots per inch): Ideal for printing clear and legible barcodes, text, and basic graphics on a wide range of labels.
  • 300 dpi (optional): Available on some models, this higher resolution allows for sharper details and smaller barcodes, suitable for applications requiring intricate graphics or high-density information.

Durability and Design:

• Industrial-Grade Construction: Features a robust design with a double-wall clamshell case, ensuring reliable performance in demanding environments like warehouses, factories, and retail stores.

• Media Capacity: Accommodates labels with a maximum print width of 4.1 inches (104 mm) and an outer diameter of up to 300 meters (984 feet). This large ribbon capacity minimizes media changes and keeps printing operations running smoothly.

• Clear View Window: Allows for easy monitoring of media levels.

Usability and User Interface:

• Intuitive Interface: Equipped with a user-friendly control panel featuring buttons and LED indicators for navigation, configuration, and monitoring printer status. Some models might have an optional LCD display for a more visual interface.

Connectivity Options:

• Versatile Connectivity: Provides multiple interfaces for flexible network integration and device connections:
  • Ethernet port (optional on some models) for network printing, enabling multiple devices to share the printer on a local area network.
  • USB 2.0 port for direct connection to a computer.
  • Serial RS-232 port for compatibility with older devices. (Optional on some models)
  • Parallel port (optional on some models) for legacy systems.

Memory:

• Ample Storage: Comes standard with sufficient memory capacity (exact specifications might vary depending on the model) for fonts, graphics, downloaded formats, and custom applications. This ensures smooth operation and storage of necessary printing elements.

Advanced Features (depending on the model):

• Zebra Programming Languages: Supports a variety of Zebra programming languages, including ZPL and EPL, for customizing label formats and integrating with existing barcode software.
• Media Sensors: Equipped with sensors to automatically detect label types and adjust settings for optimal printing.
• Black Mark Sensor: This sensor detects black marks on the liner material for precise label registration.
• Ribbon Handling: Utilizes a ribbon with an end-sensor to avoid printing errors due to ribbon shortage.

Additional Enhancements (depending on the model):

• Factory-Installed Cutter: Some models come with a built-in cutter for automatic on-demand label separation, improving workflow efficiency.
• Peel-off Dispenser (optional): Enables automatic peeling of labels after printing, further streamlining the labeling process.
