You need a reliable printer that delivers quality performance, now and for years to come. It needs to offer key features and be easy to setup, operate, manage and maintain - onsite or remotely. It needs to be secure, whether it is integrated onto your network or not, to prevent downtime and costly cyberattacks. You need it. Zebra delivers it, for more than 50 years.
Intuitive and powerful operation
The ZD421 offers advanced features that make it stand apart. It includes a more intuitive user interface, powerful architecture and field-upgradeable wireless kit. It also has new media guide and media handling designs that make daily operation even easier.
Backwards compatible with virtually any existing printer
Deploy your ZD421 into your existing printer fleet with confidence. Use the same label formats and applications you're using today. It supports both EPL and ZPL printer languages, and can emulate languages normally associated with other printer brands using Zebra's Print DNA tool, Virtual Devices.
Connect it your way
Integrate your ZD421 onto your existing wired and wireless networks, or connect it directly to any PC. Every ZD421 comes standard with USB and USB Host, and offers optional Ethernet, Serial and dual wireless radio with fast 802.11ac Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.1. Print from any Windows, Android or iOS device. Get your ZD421 up and running with Zebra's printer setup mobile app using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE).
Operate with ease and see status at-a-glance
Take the guesswork out of printer status with the ZD421's five LED icons to instantly see what's needed to keep your printers up and running, from replenishing media to resolving printer issues. The advanced three-button user interface replaces the typical single-button/single-light interface common in desktop printers to offer added functionality and control. And, color-coded touch points guide you through media-handling tasks for speedy media changes.
