The TLP 3842's 300 dpi printhead enables high quality,
crisp, clear printing for labeling applications that require
data such as two-dimensional barcodes, fine text, or
composite graphics. Producing data on very small labels, for
example laboratory vial labels or jewelry tags, is greatly
enhanced by the high-density 300 dpi print resolution.
Equipped with serial, parallel, and USB interfaces, Zebra's
3842 offers versatile connectivity and integration.
additionally, with the optional internal ZebraNet
PrintServer II, the TLP 3842 can be quickly and easily
networked into an Ethernet environment, without the need for
a dedicated PC connection. The TLP 3842 is used for a
variety of applications, including prescription bottle
labeling, laboratory specimen labeling, electrical
component, and mechanical part labeling.
