Cinta para impresora Zebra Wax 2100 5,16" x 131 mm, núcleo 25 mm, longitud 450 m

Thermal transfer Zebra Wax 2100 ribbon sized 5.16" x 131 mm with a 25 mm core and 450 m length is formulated for reliable printing on paper labels and tags. The wax-based ribbon delivers clear, high-density images for barcodes, text and simple graphics while requiring lower printhead energy, which supports high-speed printing up to 12 inches per second. This ribbon is compatible with Zebra printers that accept the 5.16" x 131 mm format and is recommended for a range of coated and uncoated label media.

Advantages

The wax formulation provides good print quality on standard paper labels, producing sharp barcodes and legible text with consistent density. Low printhead energy requirements reduce wear and enable reliable image transfer at higher print speeds. The long 450 m roll length decreases the frequency of ribbon changes, improving uptime for continuous printing tasks. Optimized performance on both coated and uncoated materials ensures versatility across common labeling applications.

How to use

Install the ribbon into a compatible Zebra thermal transfer printer following the printer manufacturer’s loading instructions for 25 mm core ribbons. Align the ribbon and labels to ensure even tension and proper ribbon-to-media contact. Select thermal transfer printing mode and adjust printhead energy and speed according to the chosen media type to achieve optimal print density. Print a test label and, if necessary, fine-tune darkness and speed settings to balance print quality and throughput.

Recommendations

Use with recommended media such as Zebra 8000T series, PolyPro 4000T and Z-Perform/Z-Select label stocks for best adhesion and print quality. For long-term barcode readability avoid exposure to abrasive surfaces, solvents and prolonged outdoor conditions; choose a resin or wax-resin ribbon if greater scratch or chemical resistance is required. Store unopened rolls in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and install with clean printheads to prolong printhead life.
