Zebra GK420D Label Rack Printer Review

By James Oliver


When it comes to the G-Series of printers, the Zebra GK420D is the best. It delivers the best in class as far as speed and performance. This model is feature-rich, trusty, durable, and flexible to fit nearly any low to mid volume printing application and budget. Check out some of the many uses for the Zebra GK420D thermal printer:

- Price marking
- Gift registry
- Discount and receipt printing
- Drugstore prescription labeling
- Specimen labeling
- Patient tracking
- Light economic work in process and product labeling
- Visitor ID
- Evidence tracking
- Parking passes
- Boarding passes
- Bag tags
- Ski lift tickets and more

You can print wider labels and more with compact desktop label printers that fit all of your needs. These flexible direct thermal label printers are ideal for your applications.

The Zebra GK420D monochrome desktop direct thermal label printer comes outfitted with Ethernet and USB ports, prints 5" per second in black at 203 dpi, and can be used to print labels, tags, receipts, or other media up to 4.09" wide. Direct heat printers use heat instead of ink and are often smaller, quieter, faster, and more energy-efficient than dot-matrix printers. The GK420d has a maximum print speed of 5" per second at 203 dpi (dots per inch) and prints labels up to 39" long. The 32-bit processor mixed with the 8 MB of SDRAM memory and 4 MB of flash memory offers fast first label printing with intensive media graphics. The Ethernet port enables the printer to be connected to a wired computer network (Ethernet twine sold separately). A USB port and an included USB wire provide connectivity to a PC or another gadget. EPL and ZPL coding languages are standard.

The GK420d printer's double-walled casing is made of ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene), which helps resist impact. An open-access design facilitates media loading. A reflective sensor grants the printer to spot the openings, holes, notches, or black marks between labels to print the labels exactly. A transmissive sensor enables it to recognize when a roll of media has run out. The auto-detectable power adapter can accept AC power between 100 and 240 volts. This printer is acceptable for use with black bar, black mark, continuous, continuing invoice, die-cut, fanfold, gap, notched, perforated, bill, roll-fed, tag, or tag stock media (all sold separately). The maximum outside diameter for rolls is 5".
