Z6Mplus

Form follows function in this simple-to-operate Z6MplusT die-cast metal thermal printer. Available in both 203 dpi (8 dots/mm) and 300 dpi (12 dots/mm), the Z6Mplus offers the same Z SeriesT ruggedness, but now with more performance in a wide-width format. Or, take advantage of the Z4Mplus direct-connect printing solution for XML with the XML-enabled printing option. Z4Mplus with XML-enabled printing eliminates middleware and associated costs.

Upgradeable to grow with changing needs, the Z6Mplus is ideal for shipping and receiving, compliance labeling, and brand protection for commercial or small business needs. With an internal Ethernet option, super-fast external memory options, industry leading throughput, Zebra Printer Management, and complex multi-language font support, the Z6Mplus is an unbeatable commercial wide web printer.
