Dont Compromise on Quality
With a durable metal frame, the ZT231 is ideal for light industrial environments. Print crisp text and barcodes with optional 300 dpi resolution. Advance your label throughput with industry-leading print speeds up to 12 ips at 203 dpi. Be confident knowing youre backed by Zebra, the #1 leader in barcode printing.

Get More Done with Greater Visibility
The ZT231 includes an all-new architecture to process more jobs at once and evolve with emerging technologies. Onboard analytics and printhead element out detection help you plan maintenance in advance. And, the easy tool-less platen and print head removal makes maintenance easy.

Small Footprint, Big Access
To help you make the most of your workspace, weve engineered the ZT231 with a space-saving, compact design and bi-fold door that reduces the height needed to open your printer. Take the trouble out of media loading with an intuitive design and color-coded cues. Adjustable sensors offer greater media flexibility and the large ribbon roll capacity lets you change media less frequently.
