Compatibility

This 05555GS06407 ribbon is designed for use with Zebra thermal transfer printers that support 64mm print widths and feature a 12mm core spindle. It is compatible with specific models within the Zebra ZT200 Series (e.g., ZT220, ZT230) and Zebra GK/GX Series (e.g., GK420t, GX420t, GX430t) printers, provided they are configured for 64mm media width and use the 12mm core size. Always verify your printer's media specifications before ordering.

Installation Notes

Install the ribbon according to your specific Zebra printer model's user manual. Ensure the ribbon is loaded correctly, with the ink side facing the label media. The ribbon must be the same width or wider than the label media to prevent printhead damage. For optimal print quality and ribbon life, ensure the printhead is clean and the ribbon is tensioned correctly on the 12mm core.
