These labels feature Z-Select 4000T material with a permanent adhesive, suitable for applications requiring durable, clear identification. Each roll contains 1040 labels, and they are supplied in boxes of six. This specific label stock is engineered for clarity and longevity, ensuring scanned data is accurate and labels remain legible through handling and storage. The 72286 is a consumable item critical for warehouse automation, logistics, and manufacturing workflows where precise labeling is paramount.

Compatibility

This label stock is compatible with Zebra thermal transfer printers that accept 3-inch (76.2mm) core rolls and have a maximum media width of 3.25 inches. It is optimized for use with Zebra's ZT400 Series, ZT500 Series, ZT600 Series, and other industrial printers requiring high-quality thermal transfer labels. Ensure your printer's ribbon compatibility matches the Z-Select 4000T material for optimal print quality and durability.

Installation Notes

For optimal performance, ensure the printer is calibrated for the label size and thickness. Use with a compatible Zebra ribbon (wax/resin or resin recommended for Z-Select 4000T) to achieve smudge-proof, durable prints. The permanent adhesive performs best on clean, dry surfaces at room temperature and will achieve full adhesion within 24 hours. Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures or solvents that could degrade the adhesive or label material.
