Key Advantages

The Zebra TLP 2844-Z offers precise and consistent printing quality suitable for barcode labeling. Its compact size allows for easy integration into office spaces with limited room. The printer supports both direct thermal and thermal transfer methods, increasing material flexibility. It provides straightforward setup and user-friendly operation, reducing training time. Memory capacity supports storing multiple fonts and graphics for diverse labeling needs. The device’s durable construction ensures reliable performance in moderate use conditions.

Limitations

One limitation of the TLP 2844-Z is its relatively low print resolution of 203 dpi compared to more modern printers, which may affect the clarity of very detailed images or small fonts. The print speed of up to 4 inches per second may be slower for high-volume industrial requirements. It lacks wireless connectivity options such as Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, which limits networking flexibility. The print width is limited to 2.2 inches, restricting label size options for some applications. The device uses older interface standards, which may require adapters or additional hardware. Replacement parts and consumables might be harder to find due to the model's age.
