Product Description Designed for light-industrial and moderate-volume workflows, the ZT231 supports both direct thermal and thermal transfer printing configurations. It combines fast output, clear barcode reproduction and a space-conscious footprint with a large color touchscreen that helps operators check status, change settings and resolve common issues.
