Key Advantages

The ZM600's robust metal enclosure ensures longevity under heavy usage conditions. High print resolution options (up to 300 dpi) guarantee sharp and precise barcode and text quality. Its modular design facilitates straightforward maintenance and quick replacement of parts. Multiple connectivity options allow seamless integration into diverse network environments. The printer supports a wide range of media formats and sizes, increasing operational versatility. Additionally, its compatibility with Zebra Link-OS enhances remote device monitoring and firmware upgrades.

Limitations

As a mature model, the ZM600 lacks some of the latest wireless connectivity features such as Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. The device is relatively heavy and bulky, leading to less portability and requiring dedicated space. Print speed, while adequate, may be slower compared to newer generation industrial printers. It requires specific Zebra thermal transfer ribbons, restricting media flexibility to some extent. The interface and menu system can be less user-friendly compared to more modern printers. Finally, newer models offer improved energy efficiency, which the ZM600 does not incorporate extensively.
