Zebra Durawax 2100 Thermal Ribbon Black, 106mm, 450m, 25mm core, resin-enhanced wax, 305mm/s

The Zebra 2100 Wax Ribbons family offers a range of resin‑enhanced and high‑performance wax thermal transfer ribbons engineered for reliable, high‑throughput barcode and label printing. Designed for Zebra midrange and high‑end flat‑head printers, these ribbons deliver consistent, dark black print on coated and uncoated paper labels, tags and many matte synthetic materials, with improved abrasion resistance versus standard wax. Available in multiple widths, core sizes and roll formats, the 2100 series supports fast production environments across retail, warehousing, logistics and office labeling workflows while helping to reduce changeovers and protect printhead life through low printhead energy requirements and printer‑friendly winding formats.

Key Features

• Resin‑Enhanced Wax: Combines wax efficiency with improved abrasion resistance to keep barcodes legible in everyday handling.
• High Throughput: Supports high print speeds (examples: up to 14 ips and 12 ips; some variants rated to 305 mm/s) to maintain production and shipping workflows.
• Broad Media Compatibility: Produces clean, scannable output on coated and uncoated paper labels, tags and select matte plastics/synthetic materials.
• Printer‑Friendly Design: Engineered for flat‑head Zebra printers with low printhead energy requirements and common CSO/outside winding for easy loading.
• Multiple Formats for Inventory Efficiency: Offered in long 450 m rolls (and shorter sample rolls) with core options and case pack quantities to reduce downtime and simplify replenishment.
