[Koha] Thermal barcode printer

[Andreas Roussos]

Hi,

We are using the Zebra GK420t printer with the Ethernet interface
option. It is a thermal transfer printer that can also do direct
thermal printing. As we wanted our barcode and spine labels to be
of good quality and also stand the test of time, we did a bit of
experimenting and we now use the Zebra 5095 resin transfer ribbon
in black colour which produces very good results. As for media,
we use custom-made labels (50x25 mm, 2mm gap) in rolls of 1,000.
To print the labels we just open up a PDF file in Acrobat Reader
and send it to the printer. I work at a Library of approx. 30,000
books and we print a few hundred labels per month at most -- this
printer can handle much more I reckon.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,
Andreas Roussos
