Selecting the Correct Label or Ribbon for Your Zebra® Printer
While there are thousands of labels and ribbons for Zebra Printers, there are some basic things to keep in mind. Desktop models, such as the LP or TLP Series Printers must use a 1" core. If you have a printer that model that starts with "LP" (such as LP2844) you use a Direct Thermal Label. These labels always have a 1" core with an outside diameter from 4"-5". Labels for this printer can be found on our Core 1"-OD 4" OR Core 1"-OD 5" pages If you're printer starts with a "TLP" (such as TLP2824) you can use either a direct thermal label or thermal transfer label. Check inside your printer and see if there is a ribbon near the print head. If there is ribbon order thermal transfer labels found on Core 1"-OD 4" OR Core 1" - OD 5" pages. Tabletop printers use a 3" core label roll with an 8" outside diameter. Tabletop printers can print or either direct thermal labels or thermal transfer labels (depending on how your printer is setup). Again, if you're not sure, open the printer up and look for a ribbon near the print head. (ot is on 2 spools and looks like black cellophane). If you see a ribbon, choose your label size from any of the labels listed on our 3" core -8" OD page. If your tabeltop printer does not have a ribbon, select your label size from this page
