manufacturers, transportation and logistics businesses as well as retail, healthcare and
post. The GC420 provides excellent value performance based on customer-proven mechanical
design.
The Zebra GC420 offers the flexibility to print in either thermal transfer or direct
thermal mode. Additionally, it offers powerful performance and throughput with a 32-bit
processor, co-resident EPL(TM)and ZPL(TM) programming languages and triple connectivity.
Other features include:

- Unicode for global character printing
- ZBI 2.0(TM) for integration, adaption and handling of data or peripherals
The GC420 printers are easy to load and operate and they are also backward compatible
with select Zebra 4-inch printers. These low-maintenance and durable printers reduce
training requirements and operating costs. The new Zebra printers are also built to
withstand rough handling in busy work environments with their dual-walled construction.
