The Zebra 2100 is a resin-enhanced wax ribbon designed for operations that need reliable, high-clarity output at volume. Running at 156mm wide on a 450m roll, it handles both normal and rotated barcodes cleanly across coated and uncoated paper labels, tags, and a range of matte synthetic materials — the kind of ribbon that earns its place in a warehouse or logistics environment without requiring constant attention.
What sets the 2100 apart from standard wax ribbons is its abrasion resistance, which matters when labels are handled repeatedly or scanned frequently. Its low printhead energy requirements support print speeds up to 305mm/sec (12ips), which means throughput stays high without sacrificing definition. For shipping operations, inventory tracking, or retail ticketing at scale, that combination of speed and durability is exactly what the application demands.
It's best suited to paper-based substrates in environments with minimal chemical or heavy abrasion exposure. Manufacturer Part Number: 02100BK15645.
