ZM400 vs. Stripe S600
While the S600 printer is
made entirely of plastic,
the ZM400 printer is
more robust containing
a metal frame and case
ideally suited for many
applications, including
product ID, receiving,
shipping, and
compliance labeling.
The ZM400 printer
offers a larger selection
of connectivity options
than the S600, including
internal Ethernet and
wireless.
The ZM400 printer has
a much faster print
speed and duty cycle
than the S600.
The footprint of the
ZM400 printer, while
slighter larger than the
S600 is still small
enough to be a good fit
for certain space
constrained
environments such as
mobile carts.
The ZM400 printer’s
LCD and quick change
platen offer quicker
setup time and easy
maintenance resulting in
more time to print labels
and be productive.
