With Zebra’s Printer Setup Utility, configuring your Zebra Print DNA printers to optimize performance is easy – no specialized knowledge required. The app can find and connect to Zebra Print DNA printers communicating via a network or Bluetooth. Follow the simple wizards to set specific parameters including connectivity, calibration, media type, printer language and print quality – to optimize performance. With the Security Assessment Wizard feature, assess your Zebra printer security posture, compare your settings against security best practices and make changes based on your conditions to increase protection. Bluetooth Printers are now manageable, even in the field! Traditionally, Bluetooth printers are not easily managed – particularly when the printers are used in the field by a mobile workforce. Zebra’s Printer Setup utility makes Bluetooth printers manageable via the Cloud by allowing you to retrieve files from your Cloud storage provider and then transfer these files to your printers for faster configuration and easier software updates. This simplifies the management of your Bluetooth printers, dramatically improving your return on investment and increasing the productivity of your mobile workforce. Help is just a tap away - use the "Zebra Assist" feature to send your printers configuration directly to Zebra's support team.
