Which printers does this adapter fit?

It is made for HP DesignJet Z Pro series printers. It is not listed for other DesignJet models, so check your printer's spindle before buying.

What does a 2/3-inch core adapter actually do?

It lets a spindle designed for 3-inch core rolls hold media wound on a 2-inch core. That widens the rolls you can load without changing the printer.

Most HP large-format rolls come on 3-inch cores, so you may not need it. It matters when your paper or canvas is wound on a 2-inch core.

No. It only changes how the roll mounts. Print quality depends on the media, printhead and settings.

It is worth it if you already own or plan to buy 2-inch core media. If all your rolls are 3-inch core, you can skip it.
