Key Features

Compact Design

Multiple Communication Methods

The ZD series offers a variety of communication methods, some standard and others optional. This ensures easy integration into your current operation and the ability to integrate further as your facility grows.

• • • RS-232 auto-sensing serial interface
    • DB-9 (standard)
    • USB V2.0, bi-directional (standard)
    • Centronics Parallel (standard)
    • Ethernet- 10/100 internal (standard)
    • Wireless- Dual radio 802.11a/b/g/n

Media Compatibility

The ZD series offers print width capacities of up to 4.09 inches, consistent with standard ISBT 128 blank label sizes making it a perfect fit for blood labelling applications! With a maximum print width of just over 4 inches (the largest ISBT label size) and a moveable label sensor to accommodate smaller media sizes you can ensure your blood labels will always be compatible with your ZD series printer.. All models in this series also feature a moveable sensor to accommodate smaller media widths and a variety of print marking systems.

Optional Cutter and Peeler

All three models offer the option to add an additional peeler for label dispensing. This optional peel-and-present feature increases application speeds and reduces effort required in the labelling process. Some facilities prefer to utilise a printer with a cutter instead, which is available on both the ZD 420 and ZD 620.

Interface Options

Between the three models a range of interface options are available, from the incredibly minimalistic single button and single LED light interface that comes standard on the 220 and the 420, to the 10 button interface on the 620 that additionally features a small LCD screen. The range of options allows you to choose which interface will be the most useful in your facility.

Why is the ZD-Series a Good Fit for Blood Banks?

The ZD series is a range of fairly standard desktop printers with varying features and benefits allowing your facility to pick and choose which features will most benefit your facility.

With its small size and ability to print high image quality and durable ISBT 128 thermal transfer labels the Zebra ZD is well suited for blood banks and collection centers. This printer also features multiple USB ports to accommodate an added scanner for verification and easy reprinting as needed.
