Types of Media
The printer can use various types of media ( Table 5 ). Zebra strongly recommends the use of
Zebra-brand supplies for continuous high-quality printing. A wide range of paper,
polypropylene, polyester, and vinyl stock has been specifically engineered to enhance the
printing capabilities of the printer and to prevent premature printhead wear. To purchase
