- Zebra ZD421T - any model in that series USB, WiFi, Ethernet, Bluetooth.
- Thermal model (T) is what we recommend. The ink holds up better. The "D" model is a direct print and uses labels with pre-ink, not the ribbons. This ink does not hold up well in heat.
- Zebra GK420t - any model in that series (USB only and one has Ethernet port).
Note: The ZD421T is replacing the existing ZD420. ZD421T is the latest model that we recommend. The GK420T is the older model but it is still available to purchase. We will continue to support existing clients with the GK420T model.
