Zebra 3003071 Printer Label - White

The main advantage is simplicity and cost-effectiveness. Direct thermal printing eliminates the need for ink or toner ribbons, reducing consumables and simplifying printer maintenance.

Yes, the Z-Select 2000D features a permanent, low-temperature adhesive that allows application at temperatures as low as 0°C and ensures adherence in cold environments down to -40°C.

While they offer some resistance to moisture and oils, direct thermal prints are susceptible to fading from UV light and extreme heat. For long-term outdoor use, consider thermal transfer labels with protective coatings.

Die-cut means the labels are precisely cut to their final shape and size, with a backing material that is also cut, making them easy to peel off.

Each roll contains 150 labels, and there are 2400 labels per pack (16 rolls per pack).

No, direct thermal printing produces monochrome (usually black) output based on heat. Color printing requires a different technology like inkjet or thermal transfer with color ribbons.

The adhesive complies with European food regulation EC 1935/2004, EU 10/2011 and BfR Recommendation XXI for direct contact with dry and moist non-fatty foodstuffs, and FDA 175.105 for dry foodstuffs.

Check if the printer is set to direct thermal mode. Clean the print head. Ensure the label roll is correctly loaded and the platen roller is making good contact. Increase the print darkness or decrease print speed in printer settings.

Ensure the surface is clean and dry. Verify the application temperature is within the -40°C to 50°C range. Check if the adhesive has expired (though typically very long-lasting).

Confirm the label roll core diameter (19mm) is compatible with your printer. Recalibrate the printer to the label size.

This is a characteristic of direct thermal labels. If long-term fade resistance is required, consider a thermal transfer label with a different material and ribbon.
