ZM400 vs. S4M

•Both the ZM400 and the S4M printer are reliable, metal printers ideally suited for many applications, including product ID, receiving, shipping and compliance labeling.

•While both printers offer setup via an LCD display, the display on the ZM400 is larger, easier to read and offers Asian language support.

•The S4M printer has a lower duty cycle than the ZM400, but much higher than that of a LP/TLP 2844. The S4M is the ideal printer for applications that need more than a desktop yet don’t need the horsepower of a ZM400.

•The ZM400 printer offers significantly faster print speeds and thus faster throughput for batch printing and other high speed applications.

•The ZM400 printer offers greater application flexibility with regard to Media handling and resolution, supporting options such liner take-up, full media rewind, cutter and 600 dpi.
