INNOVATIVE FEATURES FOR THE LOWEST TCO
Zebra Print DNA – transforming printers from the inside
Print DNA is the genetic code that injects business-catalytic
capabilities into our Link-OS printers through its unique combination
of innovative applications, utilities and developer tools. The result
is a superior printing experience through better performance,
simplified remote manageability and easier integration. And it is easy
to configure your printers to use secure connections, block unwanted
access and ensure your data and infrastructure are protected.
Add new features right on site for superior future-proofing
If you need new communication or media handling options in the
future, no problem — the printer you buy today can support tomorrow’s
needs. The modular, field upgradable design allows you to add serial
or Ethernet connectivity, 300 dpi support, plus a peeler or a cutter,
right on site — no need to send the ZD420-HC to a service depot.
Safeguard prescription forms with optional locking features
The locking media cabinet prevents the ZD420-HC from being
opened, blocking unauthorized access to high value media, such as
blank prescription forms. For further security, a Kensington® lock slot
enables you to attach the printer to a desk or table. Locking features
are available on ZD420d-HC only.
Lower your costs with a high capacity ribbon
Intelligent dual-ribbon handling allows the ZD420t-HC to accept either
74 m/244 ft. or high capacity 300 m/984 ft. ribbons. The 300 m ribbon
reduces ribbon changes by 75 percent for fewer workflow disruptions.
And since the high capacity ribbon costs less per meter than the
standard ribbon, you’ll also save on the cost of supplies.
Tidier and safer installations
When you choose the optional power supply accessory, the power
supply and all but one power cord are hidden from view, improving
aesthetics as well as worker and patient safety.
Consistently exceptional Zebra Certified Supplies
Printing supplies can impact everything from printhead lifespan to
operational eciency. That’s why we design, produce and rigorously
pretest our own line of thermal printing supplies to ensure consistent,
optimized performance in your Zebra printer — and peace of mind
for you. For industry-leading quality, service and thermal printing
expertise, choose Zebra Certified Supplies.
Protect your investment with an aordable service plan
Without a service plan, a single repair can cost more than the printer
and can take weeks to complete — but comprehensive service plans
are too costly, oering excessive coverage your desktop printers
simply don’t need. Now, Zebra OneCare SV provides the right level
of service at the right price, providing two years of coverage for
normal wear and tear, double the standard warranty coverage,
priority turnaround times at the depot and more — all for a tiny
fraction of the cost of a single repair.
