Zebra ZT231 – Label printing that keeps up with your business

The Zebra ZT231 is a midrange direct thermal label printer built for daily heavy use in small and medium-sized businesses. Whether you run a café printing price labels, a workshop tagging parts, or a retail shop producing shipping labels — this printer gets the job done without constant fiddling.

Print quality your customers will notice

At 300 dpi (12 dots/mm), barcodes scan first time and text stays sharp even at small font sizes. Maximum print width is 104 mm with a media width of 114 mm, so the most common label formats work straight out of the box.

Speed that doesn't slow your day down

With a maximum print speed of 203 mm/s, label output keeps pace even during your busiest moments. No queue builds up at the printer while customers are waiting.

Colour touchscreen — change settings without leaving the counter

The colour touchscreen shows printer status at a glance and lets you adjust settings without connecting a computer. If something needs changing mid-service, you handle it directly on the device — no matter how full the shop floor is.

Connects to the setup you already have

USB, RS232, and Ethernet ports mean the ZT231 fits into your existing setup regardless of how your point-of-sale or stock management is built. Support for EPL, ZPL, and ZPLII ensures broad compatibility with the most widely used systems.
