Review: Zebra GK420D Direct Thermal Printer

By James Oliver


Without a doubt, the Zebra Gk4200D is the best all around printer out of the G-Series. It delivers the finest in class so far as speed and performance. This model is feature-rich, trusty, durable, and flexible to fit just about any low to mid volume printing application and budget. The Zebra GK420D Direct Thermal Printer is ideal for the following:

- Price marking
- Gift registry
- Discount and receipt printing
- Chemist prescription labeling
- Sample labeling
- Patient tracking
- Light economic work in process and product labeling
- Visitor ID
- Evidence tracking
- Parking passes
- Boarding passes
- Bag tags
- Ski lift tickets and more

You can print wider labels and more with compact desktop label printers that fit all of your wants. These flexible direct thermal label printers are perfect for your applications.

The Zebra GK420D monochrome desktop direct thermal label printer comes fitted out with Ethernet and USB ports, prints 5" per second in black at 203 dpi, and can frequently be used to print labels, tags, bills, or other media up to 4.09" wide. Direct heat printers use heat rather than ink and are often smaller, quieter, faster, and more energy efficient than dot-matrix printers. The GK420d has a maximum print speed of 5" per second at 203 dpi (dots per in.) and prints labels up to 39" long. The 32-bit processor mixed with the 8 MB of SDRAM memory and 4 MB of flash memory offers fast first label printing with extensive media graphics. The Ethernet port enables the printer to be attached to a wired PC network (Ethernet cord sold singly). A USB port and an included USB cable provide connectivity to a P. C. or another gadget. EPL and ZPL coding languages are standard.

The GK420d printer's double-walled casing is made from ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene), which helps resist impact. An open-access design helps media loading. A reflective sensor grants the printer to identify the gaps, holes, notches, or black marks between labels to print the labels exactly. A transmissive sensor enables it to detect when a roll of media has run out. The auto-detectable power adapter can accept AC power between 100 and 240 volts. This printer is acceptable for use with black bar, black mark, continuous, continuing receipt, die-cut, fanfold, opening, notched, perforated, receipt, roll-fed, tag, or tag stock media (all sold singly). The maximum outside diameter for rolls is 5".
