Zebra ZD500 Barcode Label Printer

Introducing Zebra's ZD500 Performance Desktop Printer, a compact and feature packed for performance. Small in size but full of features, the ZD500R is Link-OS-enabled making it simple to integrate and manage. With automatic calibration, you'll enjoy lower media cost, less waste and fewer roll changes. Featuring UHF RFID encoding competencies, the ZD500 is ideal for numerous applications such as retail tagging as well as manufacturing, government and healthcare tracking. Since it is built with the same innovative technology as Zebra's industry-leading RFID printer/encoders, existing applications can be easily adapted for use with the ZD500R. The ZD500R supports leading edge inlays and offers 802.11 a/b/g/n wireless and Bluetooth connectivity.
