Zebra LP2844 / TLP2844 are being discontinued

The most popular and most recognised desktop label printer is finally being discontinued. This great piece of kit has served businesses and industries tirelessly for over a decade or so, and many of us don’t wish to see it go.

However, there are exciting new printers on the horizon! The Zebra LP2844 and TLP2844 are being phased out and replaced by the Zebra G-Series desktop printers (GK420d and GK420t).

The new G-Series direct thermal and thermal transfer models are easily integrated into the workplace and offer more benefits than their predecessors with a faster print speed of up to 6” (152mm) per second rather than the 4” (102mm) p/s and a greater memory size so it can buffer larger designs to print quicker. They also have greater connectivity options with the option of 10/100 Ethernet, wireless and/or Bluetooth.

As the G-Series come with EPL and ZPL programming languages they are fully software compatible with all previous models as well as being fully backwards compatible with all labels and ribbons used by the 28 Series.
