About the Zebra ET4010B
The Zebra ET4010B is a 10 in. all-in-one desktop certified under the ENERGY STAR program for computers.
The certified configuration includes a Qualcomm Kryo Silver processor (8 cores, up to 2.9 GHz), 6 GB of memory, and SSD storage. Retail configurations of the same model can differ, so check the system information on your unit.
Hardware listed in the certification record includes a 10 in. display (1 megapixels) and a 36 W external power adapter.
Its typical energy consumption (TEC) is 13.4 kWh per year, 41% below the ENERGY STAR limit of 22.8 kWh for its configuration. Measured idle power is 2.7 W, and sleep draws 1.2 W. The TEC figure is lower than 99% of the 105 All-in-One Desktop models in our database.

Safety information
- Use the 36 W power adapter supplied with the computer, or a replacement from the manufacturer with the same voltage and an equal or higher wattage rating. Inspect the cord regularly and replace it if the insulation is damaged.
- Lift an all-in-one by the base and frame, not by the screen. Keep the stand on a stable surface so the unit cannot tip when the display is tilted.
- Keep liquids away from the keyboard and vents. If liquid is spilled, shut down immediately, unplug the power and let the computer dry completely before restarting.
Setup
- Unpack and inspect
Remove all packaging, protective film and cardboard inserts. Keep the box and receipt until you are sure the computer works correctly.
- Choose a location
Place the computer on a stable surface or the floor with at least 4 in. (10 cm) of clearance around the vents. Avoid enclosed desk cabinets and carpet, which restrict airflow and collect dust.
- Connect peripherals and network
Connect the keyboard, mouse and any USB devices. For the most reliable connection, plug an Ethernet cable into the network port. Then connect the power cord.
- Complete operating system setup
Complete the operating system setup and install all available software, driver and firmware updates.
- Update firmware and drivers
Use the manufacturer's update utility or support page to install the latest BIOS/UEFI firmware and chipset drivers. Keep the computer plugged in during firmware updates.
- Set up backups
Turn on cloud sync or connect an external drive and schedule automatic backups before you store important files on the computer.
Using your computer
Sleep and power settings
As shipped, the Zebra ET4010B turns off its display after 5 minutes of inactivity and goes to sleep after 5 minutes. Keeping these timers short is the easiest way to save energy. Measured sleep power is 1.2 W, compared with 2.7 W when idle with the screen on.
Performance
With 6 GB of memory, close unused apps and browser tabs to keep the system responsive. Solid-state storage needs no defragmenting; leave 10–20% of the drive free so it can maintain performance.
Networking
Wired Ethernet is supported. Energy Efficient Ethernet (IEEE 802.3az) lowers link power during quiet periods when the switch also supports it. Wake-on-LAN from sleep is disabled as shipped; IT departments use it to wake computers remotely for overnight updates.
Care and maintenance
| When | What to do |
|---|---|
| Weekly | Restart the computer to apply pending updates and clear memory; confirm that backups completed. |
| Monthly | Install operating system and application updates. Wipe the screen, keyboard and mouse with a soft, slightly damp microfiber cloth (power off first). |
| Every 3–6 months | With the computer shut down and unplugged, clear dust from the front and rear vents. |
| Every 6–12 months | Check for BIOS/UEFI firmware updates from the manufacturer and review storage health and free space. |
Troubleshooting
Start with the simple checks below. For beep codes, diagnostic lights or error messages specific to this model, use the manufacturer's built-in diagnostics and support documentation.
| Problem | Possible cause | What to try |
|---|---|---|
| Will not turn on | Power cord or outlet; power strip switched off. | Check the outlet and power strip, reseat the power cord, then hold the power button for 15 seconds and try again. |
| Runs hot or the fan is loud | Dust-clogged vents; blocked airflow; heavy background task. | Clean the vents, keep 4 in. of clearance around the case, and check the battery and app-usage screen in Settings for apps using a lot of power. |
| Slow performance | Too many background apps; storage nearly full; pending updates. | Close or disable unneeded startup items, free up storage space, install updates and restart. |
| Will not wake from sleep | Software or firmware issue; accessory preventing wake. | Press the power button briefly; update chipset, graphics and firmware; disconnect USB devices to test. |
| Wi-Fi drops or is slow | Weak signal; outdated software; router issue. | Move closer to the router, update the network driver, and restart the router. |
Energy use and running costs
The Zebra ET4010B has a typical energy consumption (TEC) of 13.4 kWh per year, about $2.28 a year at $0.17 per kWh. TEC combines the measured off, sleep and idle power with ENERGY STAR's standard assumptions about how many hours a year a desktop spends in each state. It does not include time under heavy load such as gaming, rendering or video export, which can draw several times the idle figure.
| Power state | Measured power |
|---|---|
| Short idle (on, screen on, nothing running) | 2.7 W |
| Long idle (display off) | 1.6 W |
| Sleep | 1.2 W |
| Off (plugged in) | 0.2 W |
Sleep settings matter: leaving the computer on and idle for the 16 hours a day you are not using it adds about 15.8 kWh ($2.68) a year, versus 7.01 kWh ($1.19) if it sleeps during those hours.
