<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;mso-fareast-language:EN-US">I was glad our experience with the Zebra Thermal Printer, especially the writing of procedures to make it work well, served you well. I’ll be happy to share this document with anyone
else who has a similar Zebra printer.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;mso-fareast-language:EN-US">But I also wanted to point out, if I haven’t done so already in the past, that we had a very similar experience as you did with one of our two Datamax; one worked perfectly from
the start and the other never did. We actually did get the printhead replace under the warranty but it did not change anything, and by the time we had diagnosed the problem again, the warranty had run out. The only thing we can do with it is print 1-inch wide
microscopic slide labels. Only 1 inch out of the 4-inch printhead width works decently.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;mso-fareast-language:EN-US">My impression, after trying to make it work with two different printhead, is that the current regulation was defective. I am not an electronic engineer but that was my best guess.
And from what I hear, what ever the problem, it is not uncommon. It looks like every other thermal printer has serious challenges (and I would not exclude Zebra or any other make).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D">Oh, we tried that too. It improved the print quality, but never fully got rid of the lines. I don’t exaggerate when I say we worked on the issue for weeks (maybe even months), on
the phone with Datamax, and we tried several different fixes. We cleaned the print head, we tried switching ribbons, loaded and unloaded multiple times, adjusted the print speed, darkness/density, etc. I think we tried every fix down their flow chart until
the “defective printhead” box was reached, but because I let the ticket sit for a few weeks and it got closed, and by then we were out of warranty, we were told we’d have to pay for the replacement and shipping of the printer to their tech division. At that
point we were on the wrong end of the fiscal year and all out of money. It was an ongoing issue that was never resolved, but they had the loophole of having automatically closed the support ticket because I failed to keep it open.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D">We had an I-Class Datamax O’Neill printer until recently. I’m afraid it never worked quite right. It’s a long story, but we didn’t purchase it from Alpha Systems (we are a State
of NJ agency and our purchasing regulations are as big a pain in the neck as you can imagine, and then some). Anyway, it kept printing (or rather, “not printing” or blanking) a couple vertical lines on each label. Customer Support tried to help out, but were
convinced the issue was the ribbon was wrinkled when I loaded it—not so. One time, after months of trying, I got busy with other projects and they closed the support ticket. I called again and was informed it was probably a defective print head but I was now
out of manufacturer’s warranty. We learned to live with the blank lines and spaced the labels as best we could, since at that point there wasn’t much we could do.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D">Fast forward to last year, when the printer was old enough to request a replacement, and we found out Datamax-O’Neill was bought out by Honeywell, and the I-Class printer was no
longer an option. We searched and ended up with two candidates, the Honeywell PX4E and the Zebra ZT411.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D">We decided to give the Zebra ZT411 a try. There were growing pains at first, the biggest of them all finding out the SDR3 and SDR5 ribbons are spun in the opposite direction than
the way the Zebra ZT411 takes/loads the ribbon roll, but we have been printing very good labels for the last couple weeks--after finding out we could order the ribbon spun the way the Zebra takes it from Alpha Systems thanks to</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt">

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D">Granted, we have been using it only for a few weeks, but Jean-Marc has been using a Zebra for a while, now. We at the NJSM are happier with it than we were with the Datamax I-class,
which never worked properly for us. I realize this is a bad experience that doesn’t reflect the overall quality of that model, but I still feel their customer support/warranty didn’t treat us fairly, even if I did drop the ball by letting the issue sit for
a few weeks.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt">I would not be so quick to write them off so quickly. We have an old model Datamax that has been a workhorse for us for about 10 years. Not a day of problems in that time and e have been very
happy with the longevity of the labels produced. I suspect this may be growing pains with new printer models (it did take us some time to find the “sweet spot” for the Datamax to print good quality labels at first) or bad manufacturing on the part of Honeywell
and/or GoDEX. It may also be a bad combination of ribbon and media as his is important for good print quality. We have also been using the attached ribbon and media supplied by Alpha Systems, who have been the go to for museum solution thermal transfer printer
needs. They have now started supplying and recommending the CAB Squix printers as attached since Datamax went off the market. Does anyone have any experience with these? Are they more reliable, easier to set up and operate?</span><span lang="EN-US"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

using this medium; it curls on the edges after some time in ethanol. Frequently, the cutter will cut the label before it finished printing it, and then will print the second half of the label and then claim that it is jammed (when it isn’t). I have wasted
so much of that pricy Tyvek paper. When I turn the printer off, half of the settings aren’t saved, so I just have to leave the printer on all the time unless I want to spend 30 minutes figuring out what all the settings were before.</span><span lang="EN-US"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">I would like to know if anyone has experience using the following thermal label printer for collections stored in ethanol: HONEYWELL, PX940 PRINTER, VERIFIER W/PERPETUAL LIC., FULL TOUCH DISPLAY,
UNIVERSAL FW, ETH, USB, SERIAL, LOW POWER BLUETOOTH, RIBBON INK IN/OUT, MEDIA CORE 3 INCH, DT AND TT, 300 DPI, US POWER CORD. </span><span lang="EN-US"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">Our efforts to purchase a Datamax or CAB/Squix were unsuccessful last year because of supply issues so we purchased a Honeywell option. We returned it to Honeywell in January because it was defective
and we have now been offered the option to replace it with a slightly different model, the HONEYWELL, PX940 PRINTER, VERIFIER W/PERPETUAL LIC.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">I am also curious if anyone knows of a museum service available to have thermal labels printed by an external organization using the appropriate media and SDR ribbon? I don’t want to run the risk
of “Alphabet soup” in the jars of ethanol caused but incorrect ribbon. We need to deal with a large backlog of labels to be printed that have been accumulating over the past 2 years. As always, I really appreciate your advice.</span><span lang="EN-US"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
