Description
Discontinued: Zebra ended sales of the ZXP Series 9 on 17 June 2024, and service and support end on 18 June 2029. Zebra has not announced a direct replacement model.
The Zebra ZXP Series 9 is a retransfer ID card printer known for photo-quality, over-the-edge printing on CR-80 cards, including uneven smart cards. Banks, government departments, universities and corporate security teams still rely on it for high-security credentials.
Support for existing ZXP Series 9 users
Technowave can keep your printers in service with repairs, printhead and cleaning support, and genuine Zebra i Series ribbons, transfer film, laminates and cards while they remain available. We also support CardStudio and ZMotif SDK integrations already in use.
