Zebra Thermal Printhead Life

The printhead is the most critical component of your printer and one of the most delicate. Most print
quality problems are a direct result of improper care of the printhead. A consumable that wears over
time, much like the brakes on your car, it requires proper installation and ongoing maintenance to
ensure a long life of service for your printer.

Maximizing printhead life is important to users of thermal printing technology because it reduces
printhead replacement costs and increases productivity. However, with proper installation, ongoing
careful attention and maintenance, you can maximize the life of a printhead.

Below are photographs of three printheads. The fi rst printhead is brand new. The second has printed
over one million linear inches of thermal transfer labels and has been properly maintained. The third
printhead has printed far fewer labels, but without proper care and maintenance, signs of abrasion
and contamination buildup are evident.
