Zebra Z-Ultimate 3000T Polyester Labels — 12.7 x 25.4 mm, 12 x 9,449

The Zebra Z-Ultimate 3000T 880328-012 is 12 rolls of 9,449 12.7 x 25.4 mm gloss white polyester thermal-transfer labels for Zebra industrial printers, made for labels that have to survive heat, abrasion, moisture and chemicals.
It is genuine Zebra media: the facestock, adhesive and liner are matched to Zebra resin ribbons, so you get sharp small text and barcodes that stay readable through handling, cleaning and temperature cycling. Typical jobs are asset tags, rating plates, sterile-services labels, PCB and electronics labels, parts exposed to water, friction or chemicals.
Before you order: This is thermal-transfer stock for Zebra industrial printers and needs a resin ribbon. Check that your printer is in the listed models (Zebra PAX 110, S Series 105/160, TLP 2746, Xi Series 90/96/140/R110, Z Series Z4Mplus/Z6M) or send us the model and we will confirm.
What's in the Box
- 12 rolls of Zebra Z-Ultimate 3000T labels, 12.7 x 25.4 mm, 9,449 labels per roll
- Labels supplied on a glassine liner, wound for Zebra industrial printers
- No ribbon, no printer and no core adapter included
What It Means in Practice
- Each label is 12.7 x 25.4 mm (0.50 x 1.00 in): set this size in the driver or ZebraDesigner before the first print, then run media calibration
- This is thermal-transfer stock: the image comes from the ribbon, so you need a resin ribbon loaded — Zebra 4800, 5095 or 5100 resin ribbon (5100 for harsh chemicals)
- A polyester facestock with a permanent acrylic adhesive is meant to stay on the item: it does not peel off cleanly once cured
- Service range -40 °C to +150 °C; apply at or above 2 °C on a clean, dry surface for full adhesion
- Typical use: asset tags, rating plates, sterile-services labels, PCB and electronics labels, parts exposed to water, friction or chemicals
What Will Not Work
- Direct-thermal-only printers (no ribbon) — this material will not image without a ribbon
- Wax ribbons — they will not give the scratch and chemical resistance this polyester is chosen for; use resin
- Current Zebra desktop printers (GK, GX, ZD series) that take only small-core rolls: this roll is an industrial format
- Inkjet or laser printers — these are roll labels for thermal printers only

Frequently Asked Questions
Which ribbon should I use with Z-Ultimate 3000T?
Zebra lists Zebra 4800, 5095 or 5100 resin ribbon (5100 for harsh chemicals). A resin ribbon is what gives the print its smear, scratch and chemical resistance on this material.
Will these labels fit my printer?
They are listed for Zebra PAX 110, S Series 105/160, TLP 2746, Xi Series 90/96/140/R110, Z Series Z4Mplus/Z6M. If your model is not in that list, send us the model and we will check roll width, core and media path before you order.
Can I remove the labels later?
No — the adhesive is permanent. For temporary marking you need a removable-adhesive label, which we can source.
How should I store unused rolls?
Zebra rates the unapplied material for 1 year at 21 °C / 50% RH; keep rolls in the original packaging, away from heat and sunlight.
Singular Expert Insight · Buyer's Guide
Zebra Z-Ultimate 3000T is a durable-label choice: you pay for polyester and a permanent adhesive because the label has to outlive paper. The two things that decide success are the ribbon (resin, not wax) and the roll format (desktop vs industrial). If you are building a full labelling setup, see our range of
labels and label-printer supplies.
✓ Buy it if you need 12.7 x 25.4 mm permanent, durable labels on a Zebra industrial thermal-transfer printer with a resin ribbon.
✕ Skip it if your printer is direct-thermal only, or you need removable or paper labels for short-life shipping use.
→ Also consider Zebra 5095 or 5100 resin ribbons in the matching width, and paper Z-Select or Z-Perform labels for short-life jobs.
