A newer-generation 2-inch desktop label printer that prints durable, long-life labels using thermal transfer ribbon, with USB, USB Host and Bluetooth connectivity and a modular slot to add Ethernet or Wi-Fi later.
The Zebra ZD411 is a newer-generation 2-inch desktop label printer built for businesses that need small, hard-wearing labels they can rely on for years. This is the thermal transfer model, which prints using a ribbon to produce durable, long-life labels that resist fading, heat and abrasion, making it ideal for narrow labels that have to last.
It prints crisp text, barcodes and logos at 203 dpi and at speeds of up to 152mm per second (6 ips), across labels up to 56mm (2.20 in.) wide. Zebra's OpenAccess design makes loading media quick and jam-free, while dual media sensors handle a wide range of narrow label and tag stock. It speaks both ZPL and EPL, so it drops straight into existing Zebra label formats and barcode software.
Connectivity is built in with USB, USB Host and Bluetooth (BTLE5), plus a modular connectivity slot so you can add Ethernet or Wi-Fi later as your needs change. As a thermal transfer printer it uses a ribbon plus label stock, and it also runs direct thermal media when you need it. It is built on Zebra's Link-OS platform with Print DNA and PrintSecure, ships with an APAC cord bundle, is ENERGY STAR qualified, and is backed by a 24 Months Return to Base warranty.

The ZD411 is Zebra's newer-generation replacement for the popular ZD410, bringing a refreshed 2-inch desktop platform with Print DNA and PrintSecure. This page is the thermal transfer version, which uses a ribbon to produce hard-wearing, long-life labels. A direct thermal ZD411 also exists for jobs where running cost matters more than longevity: it needs no ribbon and is cheaper to run, but its labels are only short-to-medium life. Both share the same 2-inch format, 203 dpi resolution, 6 ips speed and Print DNA software, so the choice comes down to label durability. Choose the thermal transfer ZD411 for durable labels such as asset, inventory and specimen labels, or the direct thermal ZD411 for low-cost short-life labels. If you need wider labels, Zebra's 4-inch ZD420 and ZD421 desktop printers are the step up.
