Frequently Asked Questions

The Zebra ZT600 Series is a line of industrial thermal printers that both print and encode RFID labels in a single pass. The series comprises two models — the 4-inch ZT610 and the 6-inch ZT620 — each built on an all-metal frame with a bi-fold metal media cover, side-loading supplies path and a thin film printhead with E3 Element Energy Equalizer for print quality.

Both models support thermal transfer and direct thermal printing and are designed for manufacturing and transportation and logistics environments where dust, debris, moisture and temperature extremes would disable a lighter printer. RFID encoding is delivered by an integrated encoder that can be ordered from the factory or installed later in the field.

Print width and speed are the main differences. The Zebra ZT610 prints up to 4.09 in. (104 mm) wide at up to 14 ips (356 mm/sec), while the ZT620 prints up to 6.6 in. (168 mm) wide at up to 12 ips (305 mm/sec). Resolution options are 203 dpi standard and 300 dpi optional on both models, with 600 dpi available on the ZT610 only.

Media handling differs accordingly: the ZT610 accepts media from 1.00 in. (25.4 mm) to 4.5 in. (114 mm) in tear/cutter mode, the ZT620 from 2.00 in. (51 mm) to 7.0 in. (178 mm). The ZT620 is also wider and heavier at 13.44 in. (341.45 mm) and 57.4 lbs (26 kg), versus 10.56 in. (268.2 mm) and 50 lbs (22.7 kg) for the ZT610. Choose the ZT620 for wide labels such as pallet and shipping placards, and the ZT610 for standard 4-inch label work or when 600 dpi is required.

Yes. The Zebra ZT600 Series RFID encoder is user-upgradeable in the field and available on both the 4-inch ZT610 and 6-inch ZT620 models. Zebra states the field upgrade takes about five minutes, so a printer purchased without RFID can be converted as tracking requirements evolve rather than replaced.

This makes the ZT600 Series a hedge against uncertain RFID timelines: deploy the printers now for barcode label work, then add encoding when a customer mandate or internal item-level tracking program arrives.

The Zebra ZT600 Series supports tags compatible with UHF EPC Gen 2 V2, ISO/IEC 18000-63 and RAIN RFID protocols. It supports industry-standard, multi-vendor chip-based serialization and block permalocking of user memory compatible with ATA Spec 2000, and includes RFID job-monitoring tools for tracking encoding performance.

Adaptive Encoding Technology automatically selects the optimum encode settings for the media loaded, which removes the need for complex inlay placement guides and simplifies RFID calibration. Zebra's RFID technology is certified on six continents, supporting multinational supply chain deployments.

The Zebra ZT600 Series can encode inlays spaced at a pitch of 0.6 in. (16 mm) or narrower on most RFID inlays — tighter than competing printer/encoders accommodate. Because the inlays sit closer together, label converters use less material per roll, which lowers the cost per label.

Tighter spacing also means more labels per roll, so operators change media rolls less often and printer throughput increases. On high-volume item-level tagging programs, the media saving typically outweighs the hardware cost difference.

Standard connectivity on the Zebra ZT600 Series includes USB 2.0 high-speed, RS-232 Serial, Gigabit Ethernet, USB Host and Bluetooth 4.0. Optional additions include parallel, 802.11ac wireless, an applicator port, IPv6 (via an external dongle on the parallel port) and BTLE. Two open communication slots accept internal cards for future protocols or failover connections.

Zebra Link-OS provides real-time visibility and control of printers on-site or remotely, with cloud-accessible apps for setup, management and troubleshooting. Web View allows browser-based control via ZPL II, and printers with ZebraNet print servers send email alerts to minimize downtime. Firmware supports ZPL and ZPL II, XML-enabled printing and the optional ZBI 2.0 programming language for stand-alone applications.

Zebra ZT610R RFID Printer Model Overview

The ZT610 is an industrial RFID printer with a 4-inch print width and a field-upgradeable RFID encoder. It is designed for applications that require high-volume RFID printing.

Key Features:
  • Field-upgradeable RFID encoder
  • Adaptive Encoding Technology simplifies RFID setup and optimizes encoding
  • Fast print speeds of up to 14 inches per second
  • Highly visible color display with easy-to-use icon menu
  • Link-OS software for easy printer management and maintenance


To stay ahead in today’s highly competitive manufacturing or transportation & logistics industries, you need technology solutions that will grow with your business. ZT610 Series printers combine industrial durability and user-friendly features with future-proof adaptability—including a factory- or field-installable RFID encoder—to meet your evolving needs for years to come. Gain greater visibility of your printing systems with Link-OS applications and managed Operational & Asset Visibility Services (OVS/AVS), plus the ability to deepen your insight into your entire business with advanced RFID printing and encoding.


Get unparalleled visibility and control with Link-OS

At Zebra, we believe printers should be as intuitive, user-friendly and integrated as the smartphones and other devices that keep us connected outside of work. With Link-OS, they are. This unique software platform gives you unprecedented, real-time visibility and control of your printing systems, on-site or remotely, with cloud-accessible applications that simplify everything from setup to management to troubleshooting.


Expand your view with industry-leading tracking technology

It only takes five minutes to upgrade the ZT610 and ZT620 to RFID encoding in the field. Once RFID-enabled, these printers are engineered to accurately and efficiently print and encode labels for today’s most advanced item-level tracking applications. Adaptive encoding enables media flexibility and simple RFID calibration, eliminating complex placement guides. An intuitive menu further reduces setup time. And Zebra’s RFID technology is certified on six continents, providing operational visibility and business insight across complex, multinational supply chains.


Get 24/7 reliability, even in the harshest environments

Built to deliver outstanding print quality under the most challenging industrial conditions, ZT600 Series printers virtually eliminate operational downtime due to printer failure. Their durable, all-metal designs hold up against extreme temperatures, dust, debris, moisture and worse. Guided instructions and feedback eliminate common errors and reduce manual adjustments for highly consistent printing. And high-quality print mechanisms and internal components deliver superior print quality and speed across the widest range of applications. A field-installable, full-width, guillotine-style cutter with catch tray is ideal for apparel tag applications.


Reduce RFID Media Costs

Tags are spaced incredibly close together, with a distance (pitch) of 0.6"/16 mm or narrower on most RFID inlays—smaller than what other printer/ encoders can accommodate. By spacing inlays closer, label converters use less material, which reduces your cost per label, requires fewer media roll changes and gives you faster printer/encoder throughput.


Customize your configuration with flexible connectivity

System setup, integration and updates are a snap with virtually every modern connectivity option. Standard connectivity includes Serial, USB, Gb Ethernet, USB Host and Bluetooth® with optional Parallel, 802.11a/c, Applicator Port, IPv6 and BTLE capabilities. You also get two open media slots for non-standard connectivity options, design failover connections and provisioning for future protocols.


Increase your efficiency with a user-friendly design

Every detail of the ZT600 Series was designed to put time back in your day. An intuitive LCD interface simplifies daily use. Color-illuminated media and ribbon paths streamline routine maintenance. Adjustable media width and pressure toggles easily accommodate more applications. And onboard sensors, diagnostics and help resources empower you to manage issues without having to call in support.


ZT600 SERIES – THE INDUSTRIAL BRAWN AND NEXT-GEN BRAINS TO MEET EVERY CHALLENGE HEAD-ON.
