ZT231 Label Printer Description
A harsh and demanding environment needs a powerful printer that can withstand broad functionality. The Zebra’s ZT231 label printer is the right solution for light industries with large numbers of activities. This printer offers outstanding functionality and characteristics while maintaining rigorous standards of printing and reliability. It can be used for various industrial needs, such as printing asset labels and shipping, laboratory samples or compliance labelling.
Additionally, it offers a quick impression, high-resolution print quality, and a 4.3-inch colour touch screen that makes it simple to monitor and manage scanning activities. It also provides extra features like RFID, wireless connectivity, and media control capabilities. The ZT231 label printer is built with USB, Serial, 10/100 Ethernet port, and USB Host.
BUILT TO PERFORM. ENGINEERED TO ENDURE
Don’t Compromise on Quality
The ZT231 printer is built with a durable metal frame which makes it ideal for light industrial environments. Take your label throughput to the next-level with the industry-leading printer with print speeds up to 12 ips at 203 dpi. It comes with an optional resolution which prints crisp text and barcodes at 300 dpi resolution.
Simple Operation with Smart Features
Zebra introduces an easy to use 4.3 inches colour touchscreen to the ZT231 printer. This screen helps to reduce training time by making it easier to manage the printer’s operation. You can now access wizards and helpful how-to videos and make changes with the touch of a finger or gloved hand. Use the ZT231's backwards compatibility and Printer Emulations to seamlessly replace other brands on your network without changing label formats or rewriting code.
Small Footprint, Big Access
This version of Zebra’s industrial printer is easy to deploy into workspaces. It is designed to perfectly save enough space with its compact design and bi-fold door that reduces the height needed to open your printer. With an easy layout and colour-coded cues, media loading will be hassle-free. More media flexibility is provided by adjustable sensors, and a large ribbon roll capacity enables less frequent media changes.
Connect Your Way
On the ZT231 printer, you have broad options to connect a variety of standard connectivities, including USB, Serial, Ethernet and USB Host. It comes with a Print Touch tag (NFC) which makes it possible to tap, pair and print with compatible mobile devices, add a second Ethernet port, 802.11ac or an Applicator port.
Get RFID Without Complication
It is incorporated with UHF RFID printing and encoding for greater visibility and tracking. Zebra's adaptive encoding technology, which does away with complicated positioning standards, gives you more media freedom and straightforward RFID calibration.
