Description:

The Zebra ZD611 Barcode Printer represents a pinnacle of innovation and reliability in barcode printing technology. Engineered to deliver exceptional performance across various industries, this printer combines advanced features with user-friendly design to streamline printing operations and enhance productivity.

Features:

Printing Performance:

• Printing Method: Offers two options depending on the model:
  • Direct Thermal: Utilizes heat-sensitive labels for faster printing at a lower cost, suitable for short-term labels.
  • Thermal Transfer: Uses ribbons along with labels to produce high-quality, durable labels resistant to fading, moisture, and chemicals (ribbons not included). Ideal for applications requiring long-lasting labels.
• Print Speed: Delivers a print speed of up to 8 inches (203 mm) per second at 203 dpi resolution, making it suitable for handling moderate to high printing volumes. An optional 300 dpi model might be available with a slightly slower print speed.
• Print Resolution: Provides two resolution options for different levels of detail:
  • 203 dpi (dots per inch): Ideal for clear and legible printing of barcodes, text, and basic graphics. This is the standard resolution on most ZD611 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:

• Premium Construction: Features a durable, high-quality build with a compact footprint for space-saving desktop placement.
• Media Capacity: Accommodates labels with a maximum print width of 2.2 inches (56 mm) for 203 dpi resolution and 2.13 inches (54 mm) for 300 dpi resolution. Wider media capacities might be available on some models.

Usability and Interface:

• User-Friendly Controls: Integrates a user-friendly control panel with a color touch screen display (on thermal transfer models only) for intuitive navigation, configuration, and monitoring printer status.

Advanced Connectivity Options (depending on the model):

• Extensive Options: Provides a wider range of connectivity options for integration into various network configurations:
  • Standard USB 2.0 port for direct connection to a computer.
  • Optional Ethernet port for network printing.
  • Optional Wi-Fi® or Bluetooth® connectivity: Enables wireless printing for more placement flexibility. (Availability might vary by model)
  • Serial RS-232 port (availability might vary by model) for compatibility with older devices.
  • Optional Dual Radios: Some models offer advanced options like dual radios with 802.11ac Wi-Fi for faster wireless connections and Bluetooth® 4.1 for mobile device printing.

Memory and Processing Power:

• Enhanced Performance: Offers increased memory and processing power compared to previous ZD400 series models:
  • 512 MB Flash memory provides ample space for storing fonts, graphics, downloaded formats, and custom configurations.
  • 256 MB SDRAM memory ensures smooth operation, especially for complex printing tasks with high-resolution graphics.

Advanced Features:

• Print DNA Software Suite (Basic): Includes Zebra's Print DNA suite with basic tools for label design and printer management. Upgraded versions might be available on some models.
• 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).
• Media Sensors: Equipped with sensors to automatically detect label types and adjust settings for optimal printing.
• Field-installable Media Handling Options: The ZD611 offers greater flexibility by allowing the installation of optional accessories like label feeders and rewinders (sold separately) to accommodate different label roll sizes and applications.
