MEFERI MP4000D 4-Inch Desktop Barcode Label Printer
- Description
The MEFERI MP4000D is a 4-inch desktop label printer for warehouses, logistics and retail, printing barcode, shipping and product labels by both direct thermal and thermal transfer. It prints at 152mm per second, holds large 5-inch label rolls and 300m ribbons, and speaks ZPL, EPL, TSPL and DPL, so it can replace most Zebra-style desktop printers without changing your label templates.
Dispatch: made to order and shipped within 3 to 4 weeks. Buying several printers? Request a volume quote.
Two printing methods in one printer
Direct thermal prints without a ribbon, which is the quickest and cheapest option for shipping labels, picking labels and anything that only needs to last weeks. Thermal transfer uses a wax, wax-resin or resin ribbon for labels that need to last: product labels, asset tags, shelf and bin labels, and labels exposed to heat, light or handling.
Being able to do both means one printer covers your dispatch desk and your longer-life labelling.
Fast, high-capacity printing
- Prints at up to 152mm (6 inches) per second at 203dpi
- Labels from 25mm to 110mm wide, including standard 4 x 6 inch shipping labels
- Holds label rolls up to 127mm diameter, with an optional external roll holder for larger rolls
- Takes ribbons up to 300m long, so fewer ribbon changes
- 128MB memory for label templates, fonts and large print jobs
Works with your existing labels and software
The MP4000D supports the four main label printer languages: ZPL, EPL, TSPL and DPL. In practice this means it can usually print labels designed for Zebra, Datamax and TSC printers, and works with warehouse, ERP and shipping systems that already send labels in these formats. Drivers are available for Windows, and it also supports Linux and Android, as well as BarTender label software.
Connectivity
USB, Ethernet and serial ports come as standard, so it can be shared across a network. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth modules can be added for wireless printing, including from Android handhelds such as the MEFERI ME63.
Optional accessories
- Label dispenser (peeler) for print-and-apply work
- Cutter for tags, receipts and continuous media
- External label roll holder for large rolls
- Wi-Fi and Bluetooth modules

Frequently asked questions
Can it print 4 x 6 shipping labels?
Yes. It takes labels up to 110mm wide, so standard 4 x 6 inch (102 x 152mm) shipping labels from Royal Mail, DPD, Evri, Amazon and most carrier platforms print without a ribbon in direct thermal mode.
Will it work with labels made for a Zebra printer?
In most cases, yes. It supports ZPL and EPL, the languages Zebra printers use, so systems that send ZPL labels can usually print to it directly. We recommend a test print with your own system when setting up.
Do I need ribbons?
Only for thermal transfer printing. For shipping and short-life labels, use direct thermal labels with no ribbon. For long-life product and asset labels, use a ribbon with standard thermal transfer labels.
Can I order several printers?
Yes. Request a quote for volume pricing, with peelers, cutters, wireless modules and starter label stock if needed.
