Print Operations
This section provides general information on media and print handling, font and language support, and the
setup of less common printer configurations.
Thermal Printing
The ZD-Series printers use heat to expose direct thermal media or heat and pressure to melt and transfer
‘ink’ to the media. Extra care should be taken to avoid touching the printhead which gets hot and is
sensitive to electrostatic discharges.
Hot Surface Caution • The printhead becomes hot while printing. To protect from damaging the printhead and risk of
personal injury, avoid touching the printhead. Only use the cleaning pen to perform printhead maintenance.
ESD Caution • The discharge of electrostatic energy that accumulates on the surface of the human body or other
surfaces can damage or destroy the printhead and other electronic components used in this device. You must observe
static-safe procedures when working with the printhead or the electronic components under the top cover.
Determining Your Printer’s Configuration Settings
The ZD410 printer uses the configuration report to provide the printer settings. Operational status
(darkness, speed, media type, etc.), installed printer options (network, interface settings, cutter, etc.) and
printer description information (serial number, model name, firmware version, etc.) are all included on the
configuration report.
See Test Printing with the Configuration Report to print this label.
See Managing the ZPL Printer Configuration to help interpret the configuration report and the associated
programming command and command states it is identifying in the report.
Replacing Supplies
If media (labels, receipt, tags, tickets, etc.) run out while printing, leave the printer power on while reloading
(data loss results if you turn off the printer). After you load a new label, press the Feed button to restart.
