Zebra ZD411 Barcode Printer

Description:

The Zebra ZD411 Desktop Direct Thermal Printer is a compact and versatile printing solution designed to meet the needs of various businesses and industries. With its advanced features and user-friendly design, this printer delivers reliable performance and exceptional print quality for a wide range of applications.

Features:

Core functionalities:

• Printing Method: Utilizes thermal transfer printing, requiring ribbons for producing high-quality, durable labels that resist fading, moisture, and chemicals (ribbons not included).
• Print Speed: Delivers a print speed of up to 6 inches (152 mm) per second at 203 dpi resolution, making it faster than the ZD410 for handling moderate to higher printing volumes. A 300 dpi option might be available on some models, but print speed would be slightly slower.
• Print Resolution: Offers two resolution options:
  • 203 dpi (dots per inch): Ideal for clear and legible printing of barcodes, text, and basic graphics. This is the standard resolution on most ZD411 models.
  • 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:

• Compact Footprint: Maintains 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 2.36 inches (60 mm) and an outer diameter of up to 300 meters (984 feet) for ribbons. This larger ribbon capacity minimizes media changes. Wider media capacities might be available on some models.

Usability and Interface:

• Enhanced Interface: Integrates a user-friendly control panel with a 3-button design and intuitive icons for navigation, configuration, and monitoring printer status. This is an improvement over the single-button interface found on the ZD410.
• Optional LCD Display (on some models): An optional LCD display provides a more visual interface for configuration and monitoring printer status.

Connectivity Options (depending on the model):

• Expanded Options: Offers a wider range of connection options compared to the ZD410, providing more flexibility for integrating into your network:
  • Standard USB 2.0 port for direct connection to a computer.
  • Optional Ethernet port for network printing.
  • Optional Wi-Fi® or Bluetooth® connectivity (on some models): Enables wireless printing for more placement flexibility.
  • Modular Connectivity Slot: Allows for field-installation of optional connectivity modules like Ethernet or Serial ports, providing further customization based on your needs.
  • Serial RS-232 port (availability might vary by model) for compatibility with older devices.

Memory:

• Increased Storage: Provides 256 MB Flash memory and 128 MB SDRAM memory, offering more space compared to the ZD410 for storing fonts, graphics, downloaded formats, and custom configurations.

Advanced Features:

• Print DNA Software Suite (Basic): Includes Zebra's Print DNA suite with basic tools for label design and printer management.
• Link-OS® Enabled: Supports Zebra's Link-OS operating system, allowing for basic and remote printer management through a web interface or mobile app (on compatible devices). This provides more control over monitoring and configuration compared to the ZD410's Link-OS Basic.
• 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 helps with accurate label positioning based on black marks on the liner material.
