ZQ600/ZQ600 plus healthcare series accessories and supplies
The ZQ600/ZQ600 Plus Healthcare Series offers all the accessories you need, from power and charging to carrying and protection options, cables and more.
Single-bay Ethernet Cradle
4-bay Ethernet Cradle
Connect ZQ600/ZQ600 Plus printers to your wired Ethernet network via the ZQ600 Series Ethernet cradle to enable easy remote management—helping to ensure each printer is operating optimally and ready for use. The Ethernet cradle can communicate over 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps networks using auto-sense.
The single-bay ZQ600 Series Ethernet cradle also charges the battery while it is in the printer, while the 4-bay version (with optional wall mount kit) charges four printers at a time. The 4-bay version includes an internal Ethernet switch and second Ethernet port, so you can link and manage four 4-bay Ethernet cradles (a total of 16 printers) from one port.
The printer remains fully functional so you can print while it is in either cradle. The cradle’s LED lights indicate DC power and Ethernet-link status.
Remote printer management over your Ethernet allows:
- Battery management for monitoring battery health. Knowing each battery’s lifespan stage simplifies central management of your spare-battery pool.
- Firmware management for updating printer firmware, eliminating the need for IT staff to travel to the local user site, or for the printer to be sent back to a central location for updating.
- Print management for updating templates, fonts and graphics in order to print new label formats.
- Device management for updating startup (e.g., config. sys), WML (front panel) or HTML (browser) files to enhance or change configuration and status collection.
- Network management for updating encryption keys or certificate files to maintain the highest level of security.
- Problem resolution and troubleshooting local printer issues that may otherwise require the printer to be sent in for repair.
- Ability to manage Bluetooth printers, which traditionally have been off-network.
