One Versatile Printer for All Your Applications — Today and in the Future
The ZQ100 Series is one of the only printers in this price class that can print it all — receipts and labels. You get the flexibility to standardize on one printer that can meet all your mobile printing needs. Purchasing and management are simplified — and with only one model, training requirements are reduced. And with Zebra Certified Supplies, you get validated and tested media your workers can count on for dependable high quality.
You get the flexibility to choose the right media width for your application. Out of the box, the ZQ100 Series can print - 80mm/3.14in. (ZQ120) or 58mm/2.28in. (ZQ112) With media spacers, the ZQ100 Series can print - 76.2mm/3in., 58mm/2.28in. or 50.8mm/2in. (ZQ120), or 50.8mm/2in., 40mm/1.57in., 30mm/1.18in. (ZQ112).
Workers can now print more receipts and labels per roll, which means more efficiency and fewer rolls to carry.
All the Right Connections for On-the-Go Workers
Get the easiest in-vehicle charging solution outside the four walls with the ZQ100 Series — just plug the optional USB charger into the cigarette lighter. And if a charger isn’t handy, workers can use their personal mobile phone USB charger.
Support for Bluetooth 4.1 Classic and Low Energy (BLE) enables the fastest communication between the host mobile device and the ZQ100 Series, delivering dependably fast printing. And improved power efficiency extends the battery cycle of the host mobile device.

With integrated NFC, pairing the ZQ100 Series to the Android mobile device of your choice couldn’t be easier. Whether your workers are using an NFC-enabled Zebra or non-Zebra Android mobile device, or their own NFC-enabled mobile devices, just one tap will establish the connection to the ZQ100 Series. No more time spent troubleshooting pairing problems, improving mobile worker and IT support staff productivity.
Built for Business — Durable and Easy to Use
Today’s workers expect the ultimate in simplicity when it comes to mobile devices. And with the black and white OLED display, they’ll get it. At a glance, users can see settings, including media status, Bluetooth connectivity status and print darkness, and take whatever action is needed to maximize uptime and print quality.
Your workers can count on power every minute of every shift. If the battery runs low, workers can just pop in a fully charged spare battery — no need to take the printer out of service to charge.
The ZQ100 Series is thoughtfully designed for one-handed operation. Regardless of whether workers are printing a receipt or label, checking printer settings or changing media, one hand is always free to handle packages, open gates or greet customers, improving productivity and the customer experience.
When it comes to ‘wearability’, the ZQ100 Series is specially designed for comfort. It’s lightweight — the printer and battery weigh less than a pound (ZQ112=235g / ZQ120=420g). And the low profile makes it easy to move through the tightest of spaces without bumping into walls, fixtures, other workers or customers.
All-Day Every-day Business Durability
The ZQ100 Series is designed to handle the inevitable drops, exposure to the elements and more. You can expect reliable operation, even if the printer is dropped on concrete or used in dusty areas. Add the soft case optional accessory and the ZQ100 Series can handle rain, snow and spills. You can use the ZQ100 Series indoors and outdoors — it’s designed to operate at below freezing temperatures and in extreme heat. The result? You get the printer uptime you need to improve workforce productivity and reduce total cost of ownership
