Zebra’s Eltron Desktop barcode printer family offers direct thermal and thermal transfer models for 2 and 4 inch wide printing - each with distinctive characteristics to ensure that your specific application is fully satisfied. These Desktop series barcode printers integrate easily into a variety of mid-to-low volume printing applications including:

• Shipping/Receiving
• Warehouse shelf labeling and inventory control
• Healthcare specimen labeling and patient tracking
• Retail product marking, shelf labeling, and coupon and receipt printing
• Transportation/Logistics
• E-commerce postage

Zebra barcode printers are available in combined direct thermal and thermal transfer models:

• Direct Thermal - is a less expensive method of printing labels that requires only one label roll because the printhead burns the image directly onto the labels. However, the labels can be easily damaged by heat or pressure.
• Thermal Transfer - produces the highest quality labels. This method requires one label roll and one film or ribbon roll because the print head first burns the image onto the film, and the film is then pressed onto the labels. Thermal transfer also supports direct thermal printing, so it is a good idea to purchase this if unsure of which technology is required in your environment.

Free software included: With each purchase of an Zebra Eltron barcode printer, a license is provided for the use of IDAutomation's Free Barcode Font and the Free Barcode Label Design Application. Generally, these free products may only be used by non-profit organizations. However, when this printer is purchased from IDAutomation, a license is granted without this limitation according to the license agreement. The software may be downloaded once the purchase is completed.
