Whether you’re on a busy sales floor, in the warehouse, or delivering on-site service, dependable power is essential to maintain productivity and print quality. The HMZ220-Li combines smart energy management with rugged construction to keep your Zebra MZ220/MZ320 printers performing at their best, day after day. This battery is crafted to meet strict quality standards, ensuring compatibility, safety, and consistent performance across a range of operational temperatures and usage patterns. By choosing HMZ220-Li, you invest in a dependable, efficient power source that extends the life of your printer and reduces downtime in high-demand workflows.

• Extended runtime with higher capacity

  The HMZ220-Li delivers an 8% higher capacity than the OEM BT17790-1, translating into longer printing sessions between charges. This means fewer interruptions for field technicians, retail teams, and logistics staff who rely on continuous label, receipt, or ticket printing. A higher-capacity battery reduces the frequency of battery swaps, enabling workers to stay productive in fast-paced environments. The energy-dense cells and smart power management work together to maintain stable performance under heavy printing loads, so you experience consistent print quality even as the battery discharges.

• Designed for Zebra MZ220 and MZ320 series

  Engineered as a direct replacement for Zebra MZ220 and MZ320 printers, the HMZ220-Li ensures seamless compatibility with the printer’s charging circuitry and power management. There’s no need for additional adapters or modifications—just remove the old battery and install the HMZ220-Li. The connector, form factor, and mounting align with OEM specifications, preserving the printer’s balance, weight distribution, and cooling characteristics. This compatibility is critical for maintaining reliable performance, especially in retail and field operations where reliability can impact customer service and workflow efficiency.

• Durable, field-ready construction

  Built to withstand the rigors of day-to-day use, the HMZ220-Li emphasizes durability and safety. It features robust construction designed to resist impacts, vibrations, and temperature swings common in warehouses, delivery routes, and front-line service. Integrated protection circuits guard against overcharge, deep discharge, short circuits, and thermal spikes, protecting both the battery and the Zebra printer’s sensitive electronics. The result is a safer, more dependable energy source that helps prevent unexpected downtime and printer faults during crucial operations.

• Cost-effective and environmentally responsible

  Replacing batteries at the right time can reduce long-term maintenance costs and extend the life of your printer fleet. The HMZ220-Li’s higher capacity means fewer battery replacements and less downtime, increasing overall productivity. Li-ion chemistry delivers high energy density with relatively low self-discharge, contributing to efficient storage and readiness. Choosing a reliable OEM-replacement alternative also minimizes the risk of compatibility issues or damage to printer circuitry, which can incur expensive service charges. In short, this battery is a smart investment for organizations prioritizing uptime and total cost of ownership.

• Easy installation and safe operation

  With a tool-free, plug-and-play installation, the HMZ220-Li makes battery replacement quick and straightforward for busy teams. The design supports a secure, snug fit inside the printer housing, preserving airflow and run-time efficiency. During installation, ensure the printer is powered down and the battery connectors are firmly seated to avoid contact resistance. Once installed, a full charge cycle ensures the battery learns its optimal capacity and delivers reliable performance from the first use. The combination of simple installation and built-in safety features provides peace of mind for operators who need dependable power without lengthy downtime.
