As several people have already mentioned, Zebra printers are excellent, particularly if you plan on generating your own output (as noted above). While not Linux, we currently generate our own output from an iSeries for various label media across several different zebra printer models.
Their reliablity and operation is rock solid and hassle free (just ensure you select a printer that is best suited for the media you are using). The ZPL programming reference guide that they make available I found to be quite comprehensive and fairly easy to understand.
Ultimately there may be another printer more suited to the task you are doing but my experience with Zebra Printers has been a positive one.
