repair costs, by selecting a Zebra OneCare™ service agreement.
A cost-eective means of planning and budgeting your annual
maintenance expenditures, your agreement ensures that trained
Zebra technicians will bring your printer back to factory specifications.
Zebra oers a variety of plans to fit your budget and business needs.
Genuine Zebra Supplies
Ensure consistent print quality, reduce downtime and increase
productivity in your printing process with Genuine Zebra™ supplies.
We manufacture each supplies product with the exact same materials
every time so you always get crisp, readable and scannable output
without needing to adjust the printer darkness setting between rolls.
ZebraLink Software Suite
The ZebraLink™ suite of software and tools makes it simple to design,
manage and adapt a barcode printing application tailored to meet your
unique business needs.
Encased Design Withstands Harsh Environments
Engineered without the need for cooling fans, the ZE500 Series’
external cabinet is impervious to prevent debris and water from
entering the print engine. This added protection enables the printer to
perform in dusty environments or where wash-down and water may be
splashed around.
Smart Design and Features Give You
Added Control and Capabilities
Featuring a broad range of connectivity, the ZE500 Series includes
standard Serial, Parallel, USB and wired Ethernet—along with optional
wireless capabilities—making it easy to integrate into your network.
Easy to Set Up
The large, graphical display with simple five-button menu can be rotated
or remotely located up to two meters with an optional kit, so it is easily
accessible even for unusual mounting orientations. The applicator IO is
the same for 5V and 24V—just simply switch jumpers to convert.
Immediate Access to Support
An integrated QR Code gives you quick access to support and helpful
how-to videos on topics ranging from changing the ribbon or drive
system to changing the printhead and more.
Customize Print Quality Settings
Maximize print and image quality with the easy-to-use outboard cam
system that adjusts the printhead to the platen roller on all three
dierent axes—no matter what media is in use. And, two printhead
toggles help maximize pressure dispensation across the printhead so
you can dial in even further on print quality.
Simple to Maintain and Service
Easily remove all three platen, pinch and peel rollers in minutes from
the front of the print engine without the need to remove the ZE500 print
engine from the print-and-apply system. Captured fasteners eliminate
lost hardware, and the pinch and peel rollers are now the same part to
eliminate confusion and misinstallation.
Quickly access internal components via a hinged cage system that
swings open wide for fast, simple maintenance. The innovative,
extended-life modular drive system is engineered to be easily removed
via only three screws and can be used as a spare module or rebuilt on a
bench top. Change belts or alter resolution from 203 dpi to 300 dpi or
vice versa in minutes. No need to shut down your operations for simple
changes or maintenance.
