The perfect industrial thermal transfer printer for medium to heavy duty applications.
POS PLAZA supplies the GoDEX ZX1200Xi in Australia with the Godex consumables, upgrade kits and spare parts that go with it, including print heads and platen rollers, so a worn part does not mean replacing the printer. It carries a 24 Months Return to Base manufacturer's warranty, which excludes consumable parts, meaning the thermal print head and the platen roller. For help choosing between resolutions, or between direct thermal and thermal transfer, call us on 1300 115 808.
Why choose the GoDEX ZX1200Xi
Large intuitive touch screen
Large intuitive touch screen LCD allows the user to be in control.
Three USB host ports
Three USB host ports standard allows integration with several input and storage devices devices at one time
High performance printer designed
High performance printer designed for high volume applications
Resolution
Prints at 203 dpi (8 dots/mm), which sets how fine the text, the barcodes and any logo on the label can be.
Print speed
Rated at Up to 14 IPS (356mm/s), so a run of labels clears the printer rather than queueing behind it.
Label width
Takes a print width of 4.09" (104 mm), which governs the largest label this printer can fill edge to edge.
Where it fits
Labels that have to last
Thermal transfer uses a ribbon, so the print does not fade with heat or light the way a direct thermal label does. That is what you want on asset tags, chemical labels and anything stored for months.
Short life labels
Direct thermal needs no ribbon at all, which makes it the cheaper way to run shipping labels, pick tickets and anything read within weeks rather than years.
Fitting an existing system
With the standard Godex languages emulation it can usually take the label formats your current software already sends, which matters more than the hardware when you are replacing a printer.

Before you order
Measure your label
The print width in the specifications is the hard limit. Check your label stock against it, and check the core size your rolls are wound on, before the printer arrives.
Check the software
This printer speaks the Godex languages. If you are replacing an existing printer, those emulations are usually what lets your current label formats keep working.
Think about the consumables
The label and ribbon cost outruns the printer cost quickly. Tell us what you are printing and we will quote the stock alongside the hardware.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does it need a ribbon?
Only in thermal transfer mode. This printer does both: direct thermal needs no ribbon and prints onto heat sensitive label stock, while thermal transfer uses a ribbon to lay ink onto the label. Direct thermal is cheaper to run and fades over months, thermal transfer costs more per label and lasts. Choose per job, the printer does not care.
What does 203 dpi (8 dots/mm) actually mean for my labels?
Resolution is how many dots the head lays down per inch. 203 dpi (8 dots/mm) is the working figure for this model. Higher resolution matters when you are printing small text, fine logos or dense 2D barcodes onto small labels. For plain product and shipping labels the lower resolutions are usually sharper than they need to be already.
How fast is it and how wide can the label be?
Godex rates it at Up to 14 IPS (356mm/s) with a maximum print width of 4.09" (104 mm). The width is the limit on the label itself: anything wider than that cannot be filled edge to edge, so measure your label stock against that figure before ordering.
How does it connect?
As standard it offers USB 2.0 RS-232 ( DB-9) Ethernet (RJ45) IEEE 802.3 10/100 Base-Tx USB Host (x2 Front and x1 Rear). Tell us how the printer will sit on your network when you order and we will confirm you have the right build.
Is label design software included?
Godex supplies its GoLabel design software at no extra cost, which is enough to lay out and print labels without buying a third party package. If you already use a labelling or ERP system you will more likely drive the printer from that instead, through the language emulations listed in the specifications.
What warranty does it carry?
A 24 Months Return to Base manufacturer's warranty. Return to base means a faulty unit comes back to us for assessment and repair or replacement rather than an engineer attending site. Consumable parts are excluded, which on a thermal printer means the thermal print head and the platen roller. Both are wear items with a working life measured in printed metres rather than in years, so they are replaced on a service schedule rather than claimed, and POS PLAZA stocks both for this range.
Can I see a sample label before I commit?
Call us on 1300 115 808. Choosing between resolutions and between direct thermal and thermal transfer is much easier against a printed sample of your own artwork than against a specification sheet.
