Zebra ZT620 thermal printer with dead printhead elements

WHAT DOES A TYPICAL REPAIR LOOK LIKE?

The most common problems are print quality related, the parts that carry out the printing in a thermal printer are consumable(thermal printhead and platen roller); They have a lifetime and aren’t expected to last forever.

Let’s say you have a 203dpi Zebra ZT410/ZT411 Industrial thermal printer with lots of crisp vertical white lines running through the print, you would need a printhead replacement we would usually recommend replacing the platen roller at this point too.

You are 20 miles away, this repair would cost you: £390 for the official printhead, £50 for the platen roller and £90 for the installation. A total cost of £530 excluding VAT.

That’s less than half of a new standard configuration ZT411 which is £1100 excluding VAT. We could save you even more money on the repair if you are willing to try OEM compatible printheads.
