App summary

With Zebra’s Printer Setup Utility, configuring your Zebra DNA printers to optimize performance is easy – no specialized knowledge required.

To use, tap the printer you wish to configure. Your printer and device will instantly begin communicating via Bluetooth. Then follow the simple setup wizards that walk you through how to set specific printing parameters – such as calibration, media type, ribbon, printer language and print quality – to optimize performance. If your Android device does not support Tap and Pair via NFC, the app can discover your printer via Bluetooth and network, or connect to it via USB.

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!
Normally, Bluetooth printers are not easily managed – particularly when they are used in the field by a mobile workforce. Zebra’s Printer Setup Utility makes Bluetooth printers manageable via the Cloud by allowing the app to retrieve files from your Cloud storage provider and then transfer these files to the printers for configuration and printer OS updates. This simplifies the management of Bluetooth printers, dramatically improving both printer ROI and the productivity of a mobile workforce.

Help is just a tap away - use the "Zebra Assist" feature to send your printer's configuration directly to Zebra's support team.

    Makes things so much easier to manage the printers!! 💯💯💯

    Doesn't support anything. Simple coding they should be able to print to any zebra printer. Zebras getting outdated. Time to move on.

    Does not work with older models despite Zebra site directing to this software under their support page for the unit. Stupid and false.
