Genuine Zebra OEM 300 DPI thermal replacement printhead kit for 220Xi4 high-performance industrial label printers. Designed for direct thermal and thermal transfer wide-format media processing. Ensures factory-calibrated dot alignment and consistent thermal transfer across an 8.5-inch print width.
The Zebra 220Xi4 300 DPI Thermal Printhead Kit (part number P1004239) is an authentic OEM grand-format high-resolution replacement assembly engineered specifically for the flagship Zebra 220Xi4 industrial printer platform. Representing the maximum print width available in the Xi4 portfolio, this hardware component is dedicated to high-duty 24/7 industrial manufacturing where full 8.5-inch wide web printing is required—such as chemical drum GHS master labeling, pallet identification placards, broad automotive container tracking, and wide paper/textile roll ticketing.
Featuring an expansive active print swathe width of 8.5 inches (216 mm) and a native resolution of 300 DPI (11.8 dots/mm) with 2,560 individually addressable heating elements, this thin-film ceramic micro-resistor line array operates in perfect synchronicity with Zebra's proprietary E³® (Element Energy Equalizer™) advanced dynamic pulse-control logic. Its hardened glass-passivated glaze layer is engineered to withstand abrasive friction from industrial wax, premium wax/resin, and harsh full-resin thermal transfer ribbons as well as direct thermal synthetic facestocks at sustained production speeds up to 6 inches per second (152 mm/s).
Constructed on a heavy-gauge, grand-format cast-aluminum heatsink spine, the assembly ensures rapid, uniform thermal equilibrium across the entire 8.5-inch span, eliminating dot blooming, thermal runaway, and edge fading during massive label batch runs. Each printhead kit is supplied as a 100% genuine factory-sealed OEM component, pre-balanced to exact factory resistance specifications to guarantee direct drop-in field installation without manual burn-voltage trimming.
Always verify the exact part number and printer native resolution (220Xi4 300 DPI vs. 203 DPI vs. 170Xi4/ZT620) on the existing printhead or printer configuration label before ordering.
| Reference | Description |
|---|---|
| P1004239 (Current) | Original OEM 300 DPI grand-format (8.5-inch) thermal printhead kit specifically engineered for the Zebra 220Xi4 platform |
| P1004238 (203 DPI Variant) | Standard 203 DPI alternative for Zebra 220Xi4; requires drive gear/pulley conversion kit if changing resolution |
| G22001M (Legacy 220XiIII Plus) | 300 DPI printhead for earlier-generation 220XiIII Plus / 220XiIII; different connector routing and bracket grounding alignment |
| P1004237 (170Xi4 Series) | 6.6-inch (168 mm) 300 DPI printhead for narrower Zebra 170Xi4 chassis; completely different mechanical length and dot count |
Notice: Part number P1004239 is dedicated exclusively to the Zebra 220Xi4 (8.5-inch, 300 DPI configuration). It cannot be fitted into 203 DPI 220Xi4 printers without an official 300 DPI resolution drive conversion kit (pulleys, belts) and firmware configuration adjustments. It is strictly incompatible with narrower chassis models (110Xi4, 140Xi4, 170Xi4), older legacy 220XiIII Plus units (G22001M), or other industrial printer lines due to differing heatsink mounting points and cable geometries.
