DNA suite of applications, utilities and developer tools - powered
by the Link-OS®
operating system - which provides healthcare IT departments with a
better printing experience through stronger security, easier integration
and simplified remote management.
KEY FACTS
/p>
-
Both the ZQ600-Healthcare label printer and the ZD510-HC wristband
printer are purpose-built for healthcare using specially engineered
plastics designed to withstand an array of disinfectant solutions
often used during device wipe-downs.
-
The ZQ600-Healthcare and ZD510-HC printers include the latest Wi-Fi
and security capabilities to enable stable and safeguarded connections.
-
Print
Touch is a tag feature using Near Field Communication (NFC)
that enables instant pairing with Android (News - Alert)-based mobile devices, as
well as a webpage and app launching feature that facilitates
access to troubleshooting and product support.
-
With the PrintSecure
feature, hospitals can increase security by simplifying printer
configuration to block unwanted access.
KEY FACTS - ZQ600-Healthcare
-
The ZQ600-Healthcare mobile printer is designed for high-volume
specimen labeling at the point-of-care and helps reduce patient lab
diagnostic errors while also allowing nurses to spend more time at the
bedside.
-
The small, lightweight format allows it to be easily carried on a
clinician's belt clip or placed on a cart. It also features an
easy-to-read color display that can clearly identify signal alerts,
printer status and errors to quickly resolve issues.
-
Its high-capacity battery works with Zebra's patented Power Smart
Print technology (PSPT), which maximizes battery efficiency by
calculating and delivering the exact amount of power required for
hospital staff to print during their entire shift.
-
It also includes the industry's only instant wake over Wi-Fi feature,
which automatically wakes up the printer if it goes into sleep mode
when idle and enables clinicians to instantly print labels.
-
Zebra's IQ
Color Specimen Collection Labels automate the identification of
STAT specimens, eliminating the manual process of marking the label
with a marker which reduces errors and speeds up operations. The
labels meet the Clinical Laboratory Standard Institute's (CLSI)
specimen collection label format standard.
KEY FACTS - ZD510-HC
-
The new ZD510-HC direct thermal wristband printer is ideal for
producing high-grade wristbands used for positive patient
identification and works with leading admission, discharge and
transfer systems.
-
Its innovative cartridge technology enables fast-loading of wristband
cartridges and includes a smart chip that automatically configures
printer settings and identifies adult and pediatric-sized wristbands.
This virtually eliminates training and significantly increases staff
efficiency. The printer is also backwards-compatible with existing
Zebra wristband cartridges.
-
Zebra's Z-Band®
Wristbands contain an antimicrobial coating and are up to six
times more durable than leading thermal healthcare wristbands when
exposed to common solvents used in hospitals. Z-Band wristbands are
available in a variety of colors and sizes to meet different patient
identification needs.
