Replaces Zebra TLP 3642/TLP 3742
Bringing high-resolution printing to limited workspace
The space-saving TLP 3842 desktop printer, for print widths up
to four inches, adds high-resolution print capability to Zebra’s
popular and proven Desktop 2800™ series. The TLP 3842’s
300-dpi printhead enables high-quality, crisp, clear printing of
two-dimensional bar codes, fine text, and composite graphics—
ensuring high-density data on very small labels is easy to read
and highly scannable.
Flexible Connectivity
Equipped with serial, parallel, and USB interfaces, Zebra’s 3842
offers versatile connectivity and integration. Additionally, with
the optional internal ZebraNet® PrintServer II, the TLP 3842 can
be quickly and easily networked into an Ethernet environment
without requiring a dedicated PC connection.
Easy-to-Use, Sturdy Design
The 3842 benefits from the practical design characteristics of
the Desktop 2800 series, such as OpenACCESS™ for quick, foolproof
media loading; and dual-walled, high-impact construction
for extra durability in busy work environments.
The TLP 3842's 300 dpi printhead enables high quality, crisp, clear
printing in applications requiring data such as 2D barcodes, fine text or
composite graphics. 300 dpi resolution printing also ensures that very
small labels, such as those used on lab vials or jewelry, are easy to
read and scan. The 3842 offers versatile connectivity and easy
integration. Equipped with serial, parallel and USB interfaces the
TLP 3842 can quickly and easily be networked into any environment.
The TLP 3842 integrates easily into
small-label and lower-volume
printing applications including:
• Healthcare laboratory vial or
prescription bottle labeling;
RSS-14 reduced space symbology
supports unit-of-use bar coding
• Electronics labeling for circuit
boards and small components
• Specialty retail applications such
as small tags for jewelry items
