Quick view

The Zebra GC420T is a thermal transfer barcode printer designed for medium-duty printing applications, frequently used in office and industrial environments. It uses thermal transfer and direct thermal printing technologies to provide versatile label printing options. Featuring a 203 dpi (8 dots/mm) print resolution, the GC420T produces clear and durable barcode labels, receipts, and tags. The printer supports a print width of up to 4.16 inches (106 mm) and a maximum print speed of 4 inches per second, offering efficient throughput for label production. Connectivity options include USB and serial ports for flexible integration in varied work setups. Its design incorporates easy media loading and a compact footprint, ideal for limited spaces.

The GC420T is recognized for its reliability and affordability, making it a preferred choice for small to medium-sized business printing needs. Its thermal transfer capability ensures longevity of printed materials, resistant to smudging and environmental factors. Easy setup and user-friendly interface reduce operator training time. The compact design fits conveniently on workstations without occupying much space. Multiple connectivity options enhance compatibility with a variety of systems and software. Additionally, Zebra’s support ecosystem provides access to software and firmware updates that enhance functionality.

While effective, the GC420T is limited to a maximum print resolution of 203 dpi, which may not suffice for very high-detail printing requirements. It lacks modern wireless connectivity options like Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, restricting mobile or remote printing. The printer’s memory is modest, which can limit the complexity of label formats stored internally. It is not suitable for high-volume industrial printing compared to higher-end Zebra models. Media roll capacity is moderate, requiring more frequent changes in high-demand environments. Also, it may have limited color printing capabilities, being primarily monochrome.
