3. Functions and effects

1. Main functions

High-precision barcode printing: supports one-dimensional code (Code 128, Code 39, UPC), two-dimensional code (QR Code, Data Matrix), etc.

Batch printing: can print a large number of labels continuously, suitable for logistics and warehouse management.

Automatic calibration: intelligent sensor automatically detects label gaps to reduce waste.

Remote management: monitor printer status and update firmware through Zebra Link-OS.

2. Application scenarios (functions)

Logistics and transportation: express delivery bills, freight labels, warehouse management.

Manufacturing: product identification, asset tracking, assembly line labels.

Retail: price tags, promotional barcodes, membership card printing.

Medical industry: drug labels, sample tracking, medical record management.

IV. Working principle

ZT200 uses thermal transfer (Thermal Transfer) or direct thermal (Direct Thermal) printing technology:

Thermal transfer mode (ribbon required)

The print head heats the ribbon and the ink is transferred to the label, which is suitable for long-term and durable labels (such as outdoor and chemical labels).

Thermal mode (ribbon not required)

The print head directly heats the thermal paper to change color, which is suitable for short-term labels (such as express bills, receipts).

Printing process:

Computer/terminal sends print command → 2. Printer receives data → 3. Print head heats the medium → 4. Sensor locates the label → 5. Printing is completed and output.

V. よくあるエラーと解決策

エラーコード/現象 考えられる原因 解決策

Red light is always on Consumables are installed incorrectly Check whether the label and ribbon are installed correctly.

PAPER OUT Labels are used up or the sensor is dirty Refill labels; clean the sensor with alcohol.

RIBBON OUT Ribbon is exhausted or not detected Replace the ribbon; check whether the ribbon sensor is aligned.

HEAD OVERHEAT Print head is overheated Pause printing and restart after cooling.

PRINT HEAD OPEN Print head is not closed Check whether the print head is locked.

Blurred/missing print Dirty or uneven pressure on the print head Clean the print head; adjust the pressure bar.

Communication failure Loose data cable/driver problem Check USB/network connection; reinstall the driver.

Ribbon wrinkles Uneven ribbon tension Reinstall the ribbon and adjust the tension knob.

VI. Maintenance and optimization suggestions

Regular cleaning: Clean the print head, roller and sensor with alcohol cotton (once a week).

Use original consumables: avoid inferior ribbons/labels damaging the print head.

Firmware upgrade: visit Zebra's official website to download the latest firmware to improve stability.

Proper storage: avoid high temperature and humid environments to extend the life of the printer.

まとめ

Zebra ZT200 is a cost-effective industrial-grade barcode printer suitable for medium and high-load printing needs. It has the advantages of high speed, durability, and easy maintenance. Through proper use and regular maintenance, the failure rate can be greatly reduced to ensure long-term stable operation.
