Zebra TLP 3842 Barcode Label Printer
Part #: 3842-10301-0001 | SKU: ZEB8840

The TLP 3842's 300 dpi printhead enables high quality, crisp, clear printing in applications requiring data such as two-dimensional barcodes, fine text or composite graphics. 300 dpi resolution printing also ensures that very small labels, such as those used on laboratory vials or items of jewelry, are easy to read and scan. The TLP 3842 offers versatile connectivity and easy integration. Equipped with serial, parallel and USB interfaces as well as offering the optional internal ZebraNet PrintServer II, the TLP 3842 can quickly and easily be networked into any environment. The TLP 3842 benefits from the same practical design characteristics as the rest of the 2800 series, such as OpenACCESS for convenient and easy media loading and a dual-walled construction for extra durability.
