Key Advantages

ZebraNet LP2844 offers reliable direct thermal printing technology that reduces consumables and maintenance. It boasts versatile connectivity options including USB, serial, and parallel interfaces for flexible integration. The printer features a compact design that fits small office spaces without sacrificing performance. Its 32-bit processor and sufficient memory enable smooth and fast label printing of up to 4 ips. It supports multiple label formats and materials including continuous and die-cut labels for diverse applications. Additionally, the device includes an LCD display for easy status monitoring and configuration on the device.

Limitations

The LP2844 is limited to a 203 dpi print resolution, which may not be suitable for high-resolution graphic printing requirements. It does not support color printing, as it only operates with direct thermal monochrome technology. Paper handling is restricted to widths up to 4.09 inches, limiting the size of printable labels. The printer is relatively slow compared to modern thermal printers with speeds maxing out at 4 ips. It lacks wireless connectivity options such as Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, which reduces modern office integration flexibility. Additionally, the device has been discontinued and may have limited availability for replacement parts or technical support.
