Overview

The Zebra S4M Stripe S4M00-2001-0200T is an industrial thermal printer designed primarily for medium-duty printing applications. It supports direct thermal and thermal transfer printing technologies, enhancing versatility for various label and barcode printing needs.

The device features a 203 dpi (dots per inch) print resolution, which balances print quality and speed effectively for office labeling and shipping tasks. Its print speed can reach up to 5 inches per second, optimizing throughput for high-volume printing environments.

Equipped with a 4-inch print width capacity, the S4M Stripe model accommodates a broad spectrum of label sizes and types. The printer incorporates a robust metal frame construction with a clamshell design for easy media loading and maintenance. Connectivity-wise, it includes serial, parallel, and USB interfaces, with optional network capabilities available through additional modules.

Its firmware supports various barcode symbologies, including 1D and 2D barcodes, making it suitable for retail, manufacturing, and logistics industries. The printer also features adjustable media sensors and a peel-off option for label separation in manual or semi-automatic operations.

Additionally, the printer supports expandable memory through CompactFlash slots and allows for firmware updates to keep pace with evolving printing requirements. It runs on Zebra’s proprietary programming language, ensuring compatibility with existing Zebra software ecosystems.

The S4M Stripe model strikes a balance between performance, reliability, and ease of use for organizations requiring compact yet durable industrial printers.

Key Advantages

The Zebra S4M Stripe offers a versatile print technology supporting both thermal transfer and direct thermal modes, suitable for diverse labeling needs.

Its 203 dpi print resolution delivers clear and professional printing results ideal for barcode and label readability.

The printer supports a fast print speed of up to 5 inches per second, enhancing productivity in busy office settings.

A solid metal frame and clamshell design improve durability and simplify media loading, reducing downtime.

Multi-connectivity options including serial, parallel, and USB interfaces provide flexibility for integration into various system configurations.

Firmware and memory expansion capabilities allow the printer to adapt to evolving business requirements and complex printing tasks.

Limitations

The 203 dpi resolution may not suffice for applications demanding ultra-fine print detail or high-density barcodes.

The print speed, while adequate for medium volume, can be limiting compared to more advanced industrial printers intended for high-volume production.

Network connectivity is not standard and may require optional modules, increasing total system cost and complexity.

The printer's size and weight make it less suitable for mobile or space-constrained environments.

Its proprietary programming language may require specialized training or adaptation for some IT staff and third-party software.

Being a legacy model, driver and firmware updates may be limited, potentially affecting compatibility with modern operating systems.
