Zebra Printhead ZE500, 8 dots/mm (203dpi)

Zebra ZE500-4 Replacement Printhead — keep one on the shelf or swap it out today

The printhead is the most wear-prone part of any label printer. When it starts leaving faint streaks on labels — or stops printing altogether — your labelling line or checkout operation comes to a standstill. This genuine Zebra replacement printhead for the ZE500-4 keeps downtime short: swap it yourself or have it changed for you, and the printer is back in action.

Resolution is 203 dpi (8 dots/mm) — identical to the factory-fitted head. Print quality stays as sharp as the day the printer was new: barcodes scan cleanly, addresses read clearly, and product codes come out crisp.

Fits both ZE500-4 variants

This printhead fits both the right-hand (RH) and left-hand (LH) versions of the ZE500-4. You don't need to order separately for each variant — one spare part covers both installation orientations.

Why keep a spare on the shelf?

• ·Printheads wear down with normal use — it's a predictable maintenance need, not a fault or a surprise
• ·A genuine Zebra part ensures print quality stays within Zebra's own tolerances
• ·Replacement is a quick job when you're not waiting for a part to arrive
• ·Looking after the ZE500-4 protects your investment: it's a long-lived industrial printer worth maintaining properly
