Zebra ZD220 Barcode Printer

Description:

The ZEBRA ZD220 Desktop Thermal Label Printer is a compact, reliable, and easy-to-use solution for small businesses and offices seeking high-quality label printing. Designed with efficiency and simplicity in mind, this printer is ideal for a variety of applications, including retail, healthcare, manufacturing, and logistics.

Features:

Printing Performance:

• Print Method: Offers two options:
  • Thermal Transfer: Utilizes a ribbon to produce high-resolution, durable labels that resist fading, moisture, and chemicals (ribbons not included). This method is ideal for applications requiring long-lasting labels, such as in manufacturing, logistics, and healthcare.
  • Direct Thermal: Uses heat-sensitive labels for faster printing at a lower cost. This method is suitable for short-term labels that don't require extreme durability, such as shipping labels or receipts.
• Print Speed: Delivers a print speed of up to 4 inches (102 mm) per second at 203 dpi resolution, making it efficient for handling moderate printing volumes.
• Print Resolution: Offers a standard resolution of 203 dpi (dots per inch), which is suitable for clear and legible printing of barcodes, text, and basic graphics.

Durability and Design:

• Compact Design: Features a space-saving design with a durable double-walled construction, ideal for desktops with limited space.
• Media Capacity: Accommodates labels with a maximum print width of 4.09 inches (104 mm) and an outer diameter of up to 5 inches (127 mm). This capacity is sufficient for most standard-sized desktop label printing applications.
• OpenACCESS™ Design: Zebra's OpenACCESS design allows for easy loading of ribbons and labels, minimizing downtime during media changes.

Usability and User Interface:

• Simple Interface: Equipped with a single LED indicator and a single button for feed/pause, making it very user-friendly for basic printing tasks.
• Optional LCD Display (on some models): Some models offer an optional LCD display for a more intuitive interface, allowing for configuration and monitoring printer status.

Connectivity Options:

• Standard Connectivity: Provides options for connecting the printer to your device:
  • USB 2.0 port for direct connection to a computer. This is the most common connection method for the ZD220.
• Optional Connectivity (depending on the model): Some models might offer additional connectivity options like:
  • Ethernet port for network printing, enabling multiple devices to share the printer on a local area network.
  • Serial RS-232 port for compatibility with older devices. (availability might vary)

Memory:

• Ample Storage: Comes standard with 128 MB Flash memory and 128 MB SDRAM memory, providing sufficient space for storing fonts, graphics, downloaded formats, and basic customizations.

Advanced Features:

• Print DNA Software (Basic): Includes Zebra's Print DNA software with basic features for label design and printer management.
• Link-OS® Basic Enabled: This Zebra operating system allows for basic printer management and monitoring through a web interface or mobile app (on compatible devices).
• Media Sensors: Equipped with sensors to automatically detect label types and adjust settings for optimal printing.
• Head-Up Sensor: Detects when the printhead is open to prevent accidental damage.
• Movable Black Mark Sensor: This sensor (limited range) helps with accurate label positioning based on black marks on the liner material.
