Zebra 10017573 Concise Descriptor

Overview

The Zebra 10017573 is a 2-inch by 1.25-inch direct thermal (DT) label designed for use with Zebra thermal transfer printers. This specific media, the 8000D coated paper, features a permanent adhesive suitable for general-purpose labeling applications where durability and clear print are required. Each roll contains 330 labels and is built around a standard 0.75-inch core, making it compatible with a wide range of Zebra desktop printers. This media is engineered to provide crisp, legible print for inventory tracking, product identification, and shipping labels.

Compatibility

This label stock is specifically designed for Zebra desktop thermal transfer printers that utilize direct thermal printing. It is compatible with printers requiring a 0.75-inch core diameter and a 2-inch width media. Examples include the Zebra ZD410, ZD420, ZD500, ZD620, and GC420d series printers, among others that accept this media size and core diameter.

Installation Notes

For optimal print quality and to prevent damage to the printhead, ensure the printer's media guides are adjusted to fit the 2-inch width of the label roll snugly without excessive pressure. Use only with direct thermal printers; thermal transfer printing requires a ribbon, which is not used with this DT media. Store unused rolls in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight to preserve adhesive tack and printability.
