Zebra 10012164 Concise Descriptor

Overview

The Zebra 10012164 is a 4x2 inch (101.6x50.8mm) direct thermal label designed for value-conscious applications where clear, durable marking is essential. This specific media utilizes Z-Perform 2000D, a coated paper stock that offers good print quality and resistance to smudging. The all-temperature adhesive ensures reliable adhesion across a wide range of application temperatures, from cold storage environments to standard room conditions. Each roll contains 2720 labels, and they are supplied in a box of four, streamlining inventory management for high-volume printing operations. This label stock is ideal for general-purpose product identification, shipping labels, and warehouse bin labeling when paired with a compatible Zebra direct thermal printer.

Compatibility

This label media is designed for use with Zebra direct thermal printers that accept 4-inch wide media and feature a 3-inch core. Specific compatible printer families include the Zebra ZT400 Series, ZT500 Series, ZT600 Series, and select desktop printers like the ZD420d and ZD620d. Always verify your printer's media specifications, including core size and maximum roll diameter, to ensure compatibility.

Installation Notes

Ensure the printer's media guides are adjusted to accommodate the 4-inch width of the labels to prevent skewing during printing. For optimal print quality and adhesive performance, apply labels within the specified operating temperature range of the adhesive. The direct thermal printing process requires no ribbon; the image is created by heat applied to the label material itself.
