Zebra ZM400 Schematic

The Zebra ZM400 includes additional productivity-enhancing features and modern, flexible network connectivity for easy system integration in most manufacturing, warehousing and business applications. This industrial / commercial barcode printer also delivers efficient 4-inch-wide labeling thanks to its quick throughput and 10 inches-per-second print speed.

Built RFID Ready (upgrade kit for RFID enablement not yet available in North America) and offering a multitude of options including 600-dpi (24 dots/mm) resolution, the ZM400 is upgradeable to grow with changing needs. Plus, design enhancements make this new-generation Z Series printer even easier to operate, load, and maintain.
