Q1: What is the ZD421 Thermal Transfer Cartridge model?
The ZD421 is Zebra’s advanced 4-inch desktop printer, building on the success of the GK Series and ZD420. This version uses a ribbon cartridge for thermal transfer printing, which makes ribbon loading foolproof, fast, and clean.
✅ Q2: How does the cartridge version differ from standard thermal transfer?
The ribbon cartridge model eliminates the hassle of manually threading ribbons. Users just drop in the cartridge, which aligns automatically, reducing user error and downtime.
✅ Q3: What is the print resolution?
This model prints at 203 dpi, delivering clear, durable text, barcodes, and graphics for labels that need to withstand more than direct thermal labels.
✅ Q4: What connectivity does this ZD421 support?
This configuration includes:
✔️ USB
✔️ USB Host (for scanners or keyboards)
✔️ BTLE5 (Bluetooth Low Energy for quick pairing and Print Touch)
✔️ Modular Connectivity Slot for adding optional field-upgradeable interfaces, like Ethernet or wireless, in the future.
✅ Q5: What does “Swiss Font” mean?
The Swiss Font option provides high-quality scalable TrueType fonts for crisp, professional label text and international language support.
✅ Q6: What tools make setup and use easier?
The ZD421 includes Zebra’s Print DNA software suite, setup wizards, NFC Print Touch for pairing and quick help, and robust remote management tools so you can configure printers onsite or remotely.
✅ Q7: What do the LED icons show?
The ZD421 has five LED status icons and a 3-button user interface, so operators can check status and troubleshoot easily without needing to read complicated codes.
