Newland HR33 Marlin AI is a handheld 1D and 2D barcode scanner for production, warehouse and packing stations. It succeeds the HR33 Marlin and is a bestseller among Newland scanners. It comes in two models with the same scan engine and the same dimensions: HR33 Marlin AI Corded works over a USB or RS-232 cable, while HR33 Marlin AI Bluetooth connects wirelessly to its cradle and has a swappable battery. 1280 × 800 pixel sensor and AI-Powered Barcode Detection: the scanner reads 1D and 2D codes, including DotCode and Digimarc, from 3 mil density and 15% print contrast. According to the manufacturer it also handles damaged and distorted codes and codes on reflective and curved surfaces. Laser aimer and Acuscan: when several codes sit next to each other on a label, one trigger press reads the one the aimer points at. The operator does not have to cover neighbouring codes by hand or scan twice. Reading range from a few centimetres to over 50 cm: EAN-13 (13 mil) is read from 3.5 to 53.5 cm and Data Matrix (10 mil) from 2 to 24.5 cm. That covers work at a bench, a conveyor and a pallet next to the station. IP52 and 1.8 m drops to concrete: the scanner withstands dust, dripping water and a drop from the hand or the bench. It operates from −20 to 50°C, so also in an unheated hall. 5-year manufacturer warranty: longer than the typical replacement cycle of station equipment, so repair costs over that period are predictable. Lua scripts (Advanced Scripting) and the EasySet tool: scan data can be processed inside the scanner, e.g. cutting out part of a code or adding a prefix, with no changes in the system that receives it. Scan confirmation by beep, LED and vibration: in a noisy hall the operator feels a good read in the hand and does not need to look at the screen. Cable or Bluetooth. The corded model weighs 140 g, is powered from the port and needs no charging, which suits a fixed station. Choose the Bluetooth model (210 g) when the operator walks from the computer to a pallet, machine or rack: the manufacturer states a range of at least 100 m in open space, and the cradle charges the scanner and links it to the computer over USB. Interface. Both models work over USB as a keyboard, a virtual serial port or HID-POS. Only the corded model is also available with an RS-232 cable and power adapter. That is the variant for machine controllers, scales and older devices without a USB port. Stand. The corded model can be ordered with an adjustable stand that moves from upright to flat, on a desk or on a wall. The Bluetooth model always ships with a charging cradle. Battery and shift work. The 2600 mAh battery in the Bluetooth model lasts, according to the manufacturer, at least 15 hours at one scan every 6 seconds and charges in up to 6 hours. It is replaced without tools, and a two-colour indicator warns of a low charge. Working out of range. The Bluetooth model can store scans in memory (at least 16,384 codes) and send them once it is back in range of the cradle. Spare batteries and a four-battery charger are available for the Bluetooth model, useful in multi-shift work. For the corded model you can add an adjustable stand, an RS-232 cable with power adapter or a USB cable. Both models fit a wall mount clip that gives the scanner a fixed place at the station.

Unitech FC80 is a compact fixed-mount barcode scanner for production lines, conveyors and packing stations. It reads 1D and 2D codes on labels as well as DPM codes (Data Matrix and QR) that are laser etched, dot peened or inkjet printed directly on metal and plastic. It sends the result over Ethernet or RS232, including the Profinet, Modbus TCP and EtherNet/IP automation protocols, so it can talk directly to a PLC. It reads automatically, with no operator involved: mounted above a roller conveyor, it captures the code of every item passing under its window. DPM reading: reads Data Matrix and QR codes marked directly on parts, including low-contrast codes on textured and curved surfaces. Parts can be identified throughout the process without a label that could peel off or get damaged. 1920 × 800 pixel sensor, 60 frames per second: the wide field of view (52° horizontal, 23° vertical) helps when parts do not always stop in exactly the same place. Ethernet (TCP/IP, Profinet, Modbus TCP, EtherNet/IP) and RS232: the scanner connects to the plant network and directly to the controller, with no PC in between. The serial port also lets you connect it to older machines. 45 × 47 × 30 mm, 133 g: fits tight spaces next to a conveyor or inside a machine enclosure. It is installed on a dedicated mounting bracket. Trigger and presentation modes: the scanner reads on demand after a trigger signal, or works hands-free and reads a code presented in front of its window. IP54 housing, multiple 1.2 m drops: protected against dust and water splashes. Operates from −10 to 50°C at up to 85% non-condensing humidity. Reads in ambient light up to 100,000 lux: works under strong shop-floor lighting. Connection. Choose Profinet, Modbus TCP or EtherNet/IP when the read should go straight to the line controller. TCP/IP is enough when an application on a PC or server receives the data. RS232 is for machines without a network. The scanner has no USB port. Reading distance. Match it to the code size: 10 mil Data Matrix reads from 5.5 to 27.5 cm, 20 mil Data Matrix from 5 to 56 cm, and 15 mil Code 128 from 5 to 68 cm. Small codes such as 4 mil Code 39 need 6 to 16 cm. Operating mode. Trigger mode suits conveyors where the read has to happen at a defined moment. Presentation mode suits stations where the operator holds a part or carton up to the scanner. Power. The scanner runs on 24 V DC. The manufacturer offers a 24 V / 2.5 A power supply, a 3 m Ethernet cable and 2 m and 3 m RS232 cables.

Newland NVH220 Lophius AI is an industrial 2D handheld scanner for direct part marking (DPM): codes laser-etched or dot-peened on metal, plastic and curved surfaces. It fits production workstations, quality control and warehouses, wherever barcodes are damaged, distorted or printed on shiny surfaces. Both versions share the same housing, image sensor, illumination and ruggedness. They differ in how they connect: NVH220 is corded, while NVH220 Bluetooth has a battery and a docking station. 1280 × 800 image sensor and DPM decoding: reads laser-etched and dot-peened codes as well as damaged or distorted 1D and 2D barcodes (Data Matrix, QR, Micro QR, PDF417, Aztec). It is GS1 Ready, so it handles GS1-128 and GS1 DataMatrix codes on logistics labels. Three illumination types with auto-learning: direct red and blue light plus diffuse white light. A button on top of the housing starts automatic adjustment of brightness and light source to the material: reflective, curved and low-contrast surfaces and colored codes. Cross laser aimer and wide scan angles: ±50° pitch and skew, 360° roll. Operators do not have to line up the part so the code faces the scanner head-on. Close-range reading: EAN-13 from 15 to 220 mm, QR codes (20 mil) up to 225 mm, small 2D codes (10 mil) up to 160 mm. IP64, 1.8 m drops, operation from −20 to 50°C: withstands dust, water splashes and drops at the workstation. ESD protection is ±16 kV air and ±8 kV contact discharge. USB, RS-232 and Ethernet in both versions: connects to a PC, an operator panel or directly to the network (TCP/IP). According to the datasheet, the Bluetooth version also supports the industrial protocols ModbusTCP, Profinet and MELSEC/SLMP, so scans can go to a PLC. Bluetooth 5.0 and a battery for more than two shifts: up to 150 m range in open space, more than 17 hours of continuous use or up to 60,000 scans per charge, 3-hour charging (Bluetooth version). Beep, LED and vibration feedback: operators know the scan succeeded even in a noisy hall. Configuration with the free EasySet software. Connection. The corded version suits a fixed workstation: no charging and a lighter device (160 g without cable). Choose Bluetooth when the operator moves between workstations, racks or the loading dock. It weighs 218 g with the battery, and the docking station is included. The station is rated IP42, so place it in a sheltered spot. The battery charges between 0 and 45°C. Automation integration. If scans must go straight to a PLC (Profinet, ModbusTCP, MELSEC/SLMP), the datasheet lists these protocols for the Bluetooth version only. A scanner connected via RS-232 can be put on the network with the Newland EX232 Remora converter. It converts RS-232 to Ethernet, powers the scanner via PoE or a 6–31 V supply and mounts on a DIN rail in a control cabinet. It has power and signal isolation and two-way communication, so the system can also send commands back to the scanner. Warranty and service. The corded version has a 5-year warranty, the Bluetooth version 3 years, extendable to 5. Manufacturer service packages for 3 or 5 years are available for both. They cover repair within 5 working days, wear and tear (scratched window, worn trigger, charging contacts) and accidental damage in normal use, such as a cracked housing. For scanners used every day on the shop floor, it is worth adding a package with the device.

Datalogic PowerScan 9600 is a series of industrial 1D and 2D barcode scanners for production halls, warehouses and cold stores. It is the top line in the PowerScan family from Datalogic, an Italian company based in Bologna, recognisable by its yellow and black housing. The scanner withstands 2.5 m drops onto concrete, dust, water and washing, and the trigger is rated for 10 million presses. The series includes a corded version, two cordless versions and several optics, from standard, through reading from 20 m, to DPM codes marked directly on parts. 2.5 m drops onto concrete, IP65 and IP67 sealing: the scanner keeps working after falling from a workstation or a forklift, after dust and after washing. Operation from −30°C for the corded version, from −20°C for cordless, up to +50°C: for cold stores, unheated warehouses and loading docks. Three connection options: the corded PD9630, the cordless PBT9600 with Bluetooth 5.0 (up to 100 m range) and the PM9600 with the Datalogic STAR radio system (up to 150 m range, many scanners on one base station). 3350 mAh Li-ion battery for more than 80,000 reads: on cordless versions one charge lasts several shifts. The battery charges inductively in the cradle, with no contacts to wear out. Green Spot indicator: a green spot projected onto the code confirms a good read, which helps in noisy halls. USB, RS-232, Ethernet, EtherNet/IP and Profinet: connect the scanner to a PC, a mobile computer or directly to the machine network on the line. Versions with display and keypad: on cordless models the operator sees a confirmation or message from the system and can enter a quantity without walking to the PC. 3-year manufacturer warranty: standard on a scanner built for intensive use. Corded or cordless. PD9630 for a fixed production workstation and the lowest temperatures. PBT9600 with Bluetooth to connect to a PC, tablet or mobile computer. PM9600 with the STAR system when several scanners work in the hall and a longer range is needed. Optics. SR for typical labels at close range. HP for dense and small codes with a wider distance range. AR (Auto Range) reads from 3 cm to more than 20 m, so it suits forklifts and high racks. DC has a colour sensor for capturing documents and signatures. DPX reads DPM codes that are dot-peened, engraved or laser-marked on parts. Display and keypad. Worth choosing when the scanner is to act as a simple terminal, for example to confirm quantities on a forklift. Workstation without a PC. The scanner can be connected to our Bilberry xT micro kiosk, which guides the operator through the process at the production workstation and sends data to the system. We supply the PowerScan 9600 as part of a workstation: on the production line in HDF MES, on a forklift in HDF WMS or together with the Bilberry xT micro kiosk. We configure the scanner for the application, set up communication and train operators, so the workstation works in the process right after deployment.

Zebra DS4608 and DS4678 are handheld 1D and 2D barcode scanners from the DS4600 series for workstations: goods receipt and issue in the warehouse, packing, offices, checkouts and production stations. The DS4608 is corded, while the DS4678 connects over Bluetooth and charges in a cradle, so the operator can walk up to a pallet or machine with the scanner. Both share the same sensor and read codes from labels, including damaged and poorly printed ones, and from phone screens. The DPE versions also read DPM codes, marked directly on parts. The DS4608 is the successor to the DS4308. 1280 × 800 pixel sensor and PRZM technology: the scanner handles dense, damaged and low-contrast barcodes. A good read is confirmed by illuminating the barcode, by LEDs and by a beep. SR and HD optics: SR reads an EAN code from up to about 71 cm and HD from up to about 46 cm, but HD reads smaller codes, for example 4 mil Data Matrix instead of 5 mil. Range depends on print quality, contrast and ambient light. DPE version for DPM codes: white illumination with a diffuser and a green aimer read small laser-marked codes on plastic and metal, including shiny surfaces, as well as ink-printed and chemically etched codes. A read is also confirmed by vibration, useful in a noisy hall. 1.8 m drops to concrete and IP52 sealing: the scanner survives everyday drops from the workstation and dust. The manufacturer also specifies 2000 tumbles from 0.5 m. Handheld and presentation mode: placed on a stand or in the presentation cradle, the scanner scans automatically, leaving both hands free for receiving goods or packing. DS4678: 2500 mAh battery and Bluetooth 5.2: according to the manufacturer one charge covers 50,000 scans, more than 13 hours at one scan per second. Radio range reaches up to 100 m, and Virtual Tether alerts when the scanner goes out of range or is not returned to the cradle. USB, RS-232, keyboard wedge and IBM 46XX (RS-485): auto-host-detect cables set the scanner up for a PC, mobile computer or POS without manual configuration. Settings are loaded with the 123Scan tool. Multiple codes in one scan: the scanner captures several codes from a label at once and passes only the required ones to the system, in a set order. Label Parse+ splits GS1 label data into fields.

The DS4608 is enough for a fixed workstation where goods come to the scanner. Choose the DS4678 when the operator walks up to pallets, large cartons or machines. SR, HD or DPE. SR is enough for logistics and product labels and on-screen codes. Choose HD for very small, dense codes; this optics version is corded only. DPE is for codes marked directly on parts, for example laser marks on circuit boards and electronic components. The manufacturer positions it for electronics and light manufacturing, including clean rooms; the same scanner also reads regular carton labels. Kit. Some variants are the scanner only, without a cable or cradle, and some are kits: the DS4608 with a USB cable and optionally a stand, the DS4678 with a USB cable and a standard or presentation cradle. For a first workstation a kit is more convenient. Interface. USB is enough with a PC or mobile computer. RS-232 and IBM 46XX help with POS terminals and older devices without USB. For the DPE versions the manufacturer lists USB, RS-232 and IBM 46XX, without keyboard wedge. EAS. Variants with EAS work with checkout EAS deactivation systems and matter only in a store. When to choose another device. When the worker scans on the move across the warehouse and needs a screen, a mobile computer with a built-in scanner is a better choice.

Datalogic QuickScan QD2590 is a corded 1D and 2D barcode scanner for everyday work at a desk, counter, packing station or label printing station. It reads codes from labels, documents and smartphone screens, and scans at any angle, without lining up the code with the scanner. It is a simple, proven model from Datalogic, an Italian company based in Bologna, with a five-year manufacturer warranty. It belongs to the QuickScan 2500 series, which also includes cordless versions. Omnidirectional 2D imager: 1D and 2D codes, including QR Code, Data Matrix, postal and stacked codes. The operator does not have to turn the product or document. Reading from smartphone screens: codes from apps, emails and tickets are scanned just like from paper. Aiming with two blue triangles and Green Spot indicator: the triangles show where the scanner aims, and a green spot on the code confirms a good read. 1.5 m drops onto concrete, IP52, trigger rated for 10 million presses: the scanner survives a fall from the desk and daily intensive work. USB, USB-C, RS-232 and Keyboard Wedge: depending on the version. Connected via USB, the scanner works like a keyboard, so the code goes into any field in a program without installing drivers. Black and white versions, kits with cable and stand: a stand allows scanning without holding the scanner, for example at a packing station. 5-year manufacturer warranty: long coverage for a scanner in this price class. The QD2590 is a general-purpose scanner. It works well at a label printing station, at a goods receipt desk, in offices handling documents, at a service counter and when packing shipments. Anywhere the operator scans codes at close range and does not need an industrial scanner. It is not a scanner for cold stores or outdoor work: it operates from 0 to +50°C, and IP52 sealing only protects against dust and dripping water. For production halls, forklift warehouses and low temperatures, choose an industrial scanner. With or without a stand. Choose a kit with a stand when the operator scans many items held up to the scanner. The scanner with a cable is enough for occasional scanning. Interface. The USB version is enough for a PC and most POS systems. Choose the multi-interface version when the scanner must work with older equipment over RS-232. Corded or cordless. If the operator walks away from the station, for example to a pallet or rack, consider the cordless version from the same series. Colour. The white housing suits bright offices and service points, the black one suits workstations. We supply the QD2590 together with the workstation: with a label printer and HDF Labels, or with a PC in the goods receipt and dispatch process. We configure the scanner for the application, so from day one it scans into the right field in the right format.

Bilberry xT is an industrial micro-kiosk by HDF: a small single-board computer in a metal housing with a 4.3-inch color display and three programmable buttons. It works as a simple workstation controller. It is mounted at the operator's eye level: the operator sees on the display what to do and confirms with one of the three buttons or by scanning an order barcode. The data goes straight to the system. It replaces a PC where space is tight and drives a barcode scanner, a keyboard, a label printer, the Waga xT scale and even machines. It has been working at our customers for 10 years: scanning components and printing logistics labels in valve production, counting and packing gaskets, tracking work time in hose production and kitting furniture parts. Three buttons instead of a keyboard and mouse: the display is not a touchscreen, and all operation comes down to three programmable buttons. The operator has nothing to learn, and the buttons work with gloves and dirty hands. Eye-level mounting: the device hangs at the workstation, takes no desk space, and the operator sees the message without stopping work. App connected to HDF MES or HDF WMS: operator screens are built quickly, and the device runs in client-server mode with central management. We also connect the same app to customer systems, such as ERP, as custom development. 4 USB ports (2 x USB 2.0, 2 x USB 3.0) and Gigabit Ethernet: a barcode scanner, keyboard, scale and label printer work at the same time. Control of Zebra, TSC, Sato, Brady and other label printers over USB or Ethernet: the shipping label prints right after the operation is completed. One customer uses Bilberry xT as a print request point for the printer next to it, because there was no room for a PC. Works with Waga xT: counting small parts by piece (screws, nuts, gaskets) and passing the quantity to the warehouse document or production report. Metal housing, IP20 as standard: resistant to typical shop-floor damage. On request we seal it to IP54 or IP65 when the workstation is dusty or exposed to water. Programmable like a computer: we adapt the workstation logic to the customer's process, from simple scanning and work time tracking to multi-step packing with weighing and printing. Bilberry xT alone. When a scanner or printer is already at the workstation, or the kit is configured individually. Keyboard xT. An industrial numeric keypad with 10 digit keys and function keys. Useful when the operator types quantities, batch numbers or codes manually. Glow xT scanner. An industrial 1D and 2D barcode scanner measuring 2.2 x 3.6 x 6.3 cm, mounted at workstations with no room for a standard scanner. Kit with Waga xT 1 kg or 5 kg. Bilberry xT with a piece-counting scale, power adapter and USB cables. Choose capacity by the weight of the counted batch: 1 kg for the smallest parts, 5 kg for heavier parts or larger portions. Sealing. The standard IP20 version is enough in a dry, clean hall. For dust and splashes choose the IP54 version, and IP65 when the workstation is washed with water. Connectivity. We recommend an Ethernet cable. Wi-Fi can be added with a USB adapter, but on a shop floor it performs poorly.

Newland NQuire 10 Trygon is an industrial Android tablet with a 10.1-inch screen and a built-in barcode scanner. It fits where a mobile computer screen is too small: quality inspections with checklists and photos, goods receiving with long item lists, and rounds across the plant or yard where 4G connectivity is needed. Unlike a consumer tablet, it has an IP65 housing, survives 1.2 m drops to concrete, uses a removable battery and has a 2D scanner that works independently of the camera. 10.1-inch sunlight-readable screen (1200×1920): an inspection form or a full delivery item list fits on one view. Tempered glass and capacitive touch. Built-in 1D/2D scanner with laser aimer: reads EAN-13 from 7 to 60 cm and QR codes from 5.5 to 40 cm. Supports GS1-128, Data Matrix, PDF417, DotCode and more, so no separate scanner is needed. 13 MP rear camera with autofocus and LED flash: photos of non-conformities, damaged deliveries or completed work go straight into the document in the app. 5 MP front camera. IP65 and 1.2 m drops to concrete: the housing is dust-tight and protected against water jets, and the manufacturer tests drops on each of the six sides. Operating range from −20 to 50°C. Removable 9000 mAh battery: over 12 hours of continuous use according to the manufacturer, 18 W fast charging. In multi-shift operation you insert a charged battery instead of taking the tablet out of service to charge.

AER is Google's confirmation that the device meets enterprise requirements and receives regular updates. Wi-Fi 6, 4G LTE, Bluetooth 5.4, GPS and NFC: the tablet works on the company Wi-Fi and switches to 4G outside its range, e.g. in the storage yard or for field service. Two nano-SIM slots (the second shared with microSD). Ndevor and SOTI, 42Gears, Ivanti certification: the manufacturer's free MDM lets you configure tablets, install apps and push updates remotely without collecting devices from staff. Mounting and charging. A vehicle mount, e.g. for a forklift, and a desktop charging cradle for a desk or workstation. Power. Spare 9000 mAh batteries and power supplies. The box includes a USB-C cable, a power adapter with interchangeable plugs and a hand strap. Screen protection. A protective film made for this model. Warranty and service packages. The standard manufacturer warranty is 2 years. It can be extended to 3 or 5 years, or replaced by a comprehensive coverage package for 3 or 5 years. Comprehensive coverage also includes wear and tear and accidental damage in normal use, such as a cracked screen or housing, and cuts repair time from 10 to 5 working days.

At 12 mm thick and 690 g it has an IP67 housing and survives 1.5 m drops. It comes in a Wi-Fi version and a version with a 5G modem and GPS, each with or without a 2D imager. The manufacturer offers vehicle and forklift mounts, an office cradle and VESA mounting, so the same tablet works in hand, on a forklift and at a workstation. 10.1-inch display, 1920 × 1200, 450 nits, Gorilla Glass: the large screen makes forms, item lists and instructions easy to work with. Touch works with gloves up to 4 mm thick, with wet fingers and with a stylus. IP67, 1.5 m drops, MIL-STD-810H: the tablet is dust-tight, survives immersion in 1 m of water for 30 minutes and the usual drops from hand or forklift. Operates from −20 to 55°C. Swappable 8800 mAh battery: up to 17 hours of use according to the manufacturer, depending on the application. In multi-shift operation you swap the battery instead of taking the tablet out to charge. Qualcomm 5430, 6 GB RAM, 128 GB storage: a platform with an extended lifecycle. Android 13 with GMS and Android Enterprise Recommended certification, with an Android 16 upgrade listed by the manufacturer. 2D imager and two scan buttons: versions with a scanner read 1D and 2D codes without an extra reader. 13 MP camera with autofocus and flash: photos for documentation, e.g. of a damaged delivery or a nonconformity found during inspection. Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.2, NFC: reliable connectivity on the plant network across three bands. The 5G version adds a 5G modem, a nano SIM slot (the second slot takes a nano SIM or microSD) and GPS. Fleet management via MDM: the tablet works with SOTI, VMware, Ivanti Wavelink and the manufacturer's MoboLink. Configuration, apps and updates are deployed remotely, without collecting devices from staff. Connectivity. The Wi-Fi version is enough when the tablet stays within the company network. Choose the 5G version for yards, routes and customer sites: it has a 5G modem, a SIM slot and GPS, which the Wi-Fi version lacks. Scanner. The 2D imager version makes sense when the tablet is the main scanning tool. The version without a scanner is enough when codes are read by a separate Bluetooth scanner or the tablet is used mainly for forms and photos. Mounting. On a forklift, choose the vehicle cradle with USB host or the MagConnect arm. At a workstation, use the office cradle, POS mount or VESA plate. Through the USB-C port with DisplayPort Alt Mode you can send the image to an external monitor. For work on the move, use the rotating hand strap or shoulder strap.

The Honeywell ScanPal EDA10A tablet is a ruggedized device with a 10-inch Full HD screen, which will find use primarily in retail and on warehouse floors, but also in outdoor and field work.

The Zebra ET6x series are ultra-rugged 10-inch tablets for forklifts, cold stores, yards and field work. ET60 and ET65 run Android, ET60W and ET65W run Windows 11, and the ET65 and ET65W add a 5G modem. All four models share the same dimensions, display and sealing and use the same forklift dock and keyboards, so tablets with both operating systems can work in one fleet. The Android versions replace the L10 Android tablets, and the Windows versions replace the ET80 and the L10 Windows models. 10.1-inch WUXGA display with 1000 nits, Gorilla Glass: readable in full sunlight in the yard and under strong hall lighting, and usable with gloves. IP66 and 1.5 m drops to concrete: the tablet withstands water jets, dust and a drop from a forklift, and can be hosed down when dirty. Locking forklift dock: locked in the dock, the tablet works as a vehicle-mounted computer. The dock is IP66 sealed and has heated contacts plus 2 USB-A ports and RS232 for peripherals such as a scanner or keyboard. Undocked, the same tablet is used for inspections. Runs on forklift power, without a battery: the manufacturer designed the Android versions to be powered from the vehicle, which removes the need to buy and replace batteries. A super capacitor then keeps the tablet running for about 5 minutes, depending on conditions. A battery housing without cells for fixed-mount installations is available for both versions. Hot-swappable batteries: a super capacitor keeps power during the swap. On the Android versions the 8920 mAh battery gives 10 hours of work according to the manufacturer, and the 17,840 mAh battery 20 hours (indoors, Wi-Fi on, 50% backlight). The Windows versions use 36 or 72 Wh batteries. ET60 with a heated display for freezers: the touch panel is heated when locked in the vehicle dock, so it does not fog up when moving between temperature zones. This version is rated for condensing humidity. Wi-Fi 6E or Wi-Fi 7, plus 5G on the ET65 and ET65W: the modem with nano SIM and eSIM works on public and private networks, and GPS reports position across a wide yard. On the ET65 the modem is data only. Optional SE55 scan engine and external scanners: the built-in SE55 reads barcodes from up to 12 m according to the manufacturer, and actual range depends on the label and lighting.

Godex ZX1200i PRO, ZX1300i PRO and ZX1600i PRO are industrial label printers in a metal housing, printing thermal transfer and direct thermal labels up to 118 mm wide. They are built for production lines, warehouses and shipping departments, where labels are printed in large runs throughout the shift. All three models share the same housing, mechanism, interfaces and options. They differ only in printhead resolution: 203, 300 or 600 dpi. Metal frame and die-cast print mechanism: built for continuous operation in production halls and warehouses. The printhead and platen roller are designed for easy removal, so replacing them does not mean long downtime. Ribbon up to 450 m and label rolls up to 203 mm in diameter: in long runs, media is changed less often. The printer detects ink-in and ink-out ribbons automatically. ZPL emulation (GZPL) plus EZPL, GEPL and GDPL with automatic switching: the printer accepts print jobs from systems set up for other popular label printers. It is worth testing your own label formats before ordering more printers. Direct PDF printing: a PDF document goes to the printer without installing a driver on the computer. Gigabit Ethernet with IEEE 802.1X, USB 3.2, RS-232 and three USB host ports (two front, one rear): the printer fits into a secured corporate network or connects to legacy equipment over the serial port. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth work through a USB dongle from the compatibility list in the manufacturer's manual. 3.2-inch colour touchscreen and a dedicated calibration button: the operator adjusts settings and calibrates media at the printer, with no software on a PC. 16 GB flash and 2 GB RAM: room for label formats, fonts and graphics stored in the printer. Options: cutter (rotary, guillotine, perforation, high-speed, paper card), label dispenser with internal liner rewinder, DSUB-15 applicator interface, external label rewinder and unwinder. The manufacturer offers an RFID module as a project option. Resolution and speed. ZX1200i PRO (203 dpi, up to 254 mm/s) covers logistics, pallet and shipping labels. ZX1300i PRO (300 dpi, up to 178 mm/s) suits product labels with finer text and 2D codes. ZX1600i PRO (600 dpi, up to 102 mm/s) prints the smallest details: small labels, fine text and dense 2D codes. Maximum print length. It depends on resolution: up to 10,160 mm on ZX1200i PRO, 8,890 mm on ZX1300i PRO and 2,540 mm on ZX1600i PRO. This matters for long labels and continuous marking. Label output. By default labels are torn off. Choose a cutter when labels must be cut one by one or in batches, a dispenser with liner rewinder when the operator applies each label right after printing, and the applicator interface when the printer works with an automatic applicator on the line. Wireless. The printer has no built-in Wi-Fi. If there is no network socket nearby, you need a USB dongle from the compatibility list.

Zebra ZT231 is a semi-industrial label printer with a metal frame and a 104 mm print width, the successor to the ZT230. It works at warehouse, packing and light-industry stations where logistics, shipping and product labels are printed throughout the shift. ZT231R is the same printer with a built-in UHF RFID encoder: it prints the label and encodes the chip in a single pass. 203 dpi at up to 305 mm/s or 300 dpi at up to 203 mm/s: 203 dpi is enough for logistics and shipping labels, while 300 dpi helps with small text, small 2D codes and product labels. Metal frame and housing in a compact size: 432 × 241 × 279 mm and 9.1 kg, so the printer takes little space at the workstation. The bi-fold cover with a window needs less clearance above the printer when opened. 4.3-inch color touch display: printer status and settings, including RFID settings on the ZT231R, are changed from the on-screen menu without a computer. Three-color LEDs show the status at a glance. Large label and ribbon rolls: label rolls up to 203 mm in diameter on a 76 mm core and 450 m ribbons mean fewer media changes during a shift. The printer takes media from 19.4 to 114 mm wide and from 0.076 to 0.25 mm thick. Standard connectivity: USB 2.0, RS-232, 10/100 Ethernet, USB host and Bluetooth Low Energy. Wi-Fi 802.11ac comes factory-fitted in some variants or as a card added later. Wi-Fi 6 is not available. ZPL and ZPL II, plus EPL on 203 dpi models: ZPL is shared across Zebra printers, so label formats from earlier printers of this brand can still be used. EPL makes it easier to work with legacy systems. Upgrades after purchase: the peeler, cutter, Wi-Fi card, second Ethernet card, applicator interface and UHF RFID module are installed on site. The exception is the peeler with liner take-up, which is factory-fitted only. Print DNA: Zebra software for configuring, updating and remotely managing networked printers. Feature availability depends on the model, and some features require a license. Print method. Thermal transfer prints through a ribbon, so print durability is matched to the material by choosing the ribbon, including for film labels. Direct thermal needs no ribbon and is enough for short-life shipping labels. Thermal transfer operates from 5°C, direct thermal from 0°C, both up to 40°C. Resolution. 203 dpi gives higher speed and EPL support. Choose 300 dpi when the label carries a lot of small content or small 2D codes. Media handling. Tear-off is standard. The peeler presents a label ready to apply at the packing station, and the version with liner take-up also rewinds the liner. The cutter cuts tags and continuous media. Wi-Fi. Choose a Wi-Fi variant when there is no network outlet at the workstation. A Wi-Fi card can also be added later. RFID. The ZT231R variants on this page are thermal transfer with tear-off, 203 or 300 dpi. The RE40 encoder supports UHF EPC Gen2 v2.1, ISO/IEC 18000-63 and RAIN RFID tags, and Adaptive Encoding selects the encoding settings automatically. The minimum RFID label pitch is 16 mm. For a different RFID configuration, add the UHF RFID module to a ZT231.

Zebra ZD421d and ZD421t are desktop label printers with a print width of up to 108 mm. They print shipping, product and warehouse labels as well as asset tags, e.g. at packing stations, in goods receiving or in the office. ZD421d prints direct thermal, without ribbon. ZD421t also prints thermal transfer, with ribbon, on paper or synthetic (film) labels, which gives a durable print. 203 dpi at up to 152 mm/s or 300 dpi at up to 102 mm/s: 203 dpi covers shipping and logistics labels, 300 dpi suits small labels with fine text and dense 2D barcodes. Rolls up to 127 mm in diameter, 12.7 and 25.4 mm cores, 38, 51 and 76 mm with adapters: the printer takes rolls from various suppliers as well as fan-fold media fed through the rear slot. Media width from 15 to 108 mm (ZD421d) or up to 112 mm (ZD421t). Movable media sensor: detects gaps, black marks and notches, so non-standard labels and tags are positioned correctly. ZPL II, EPL2 and PDF Direct: templates made for older Zebra printers work without changes, and PDF files can be sent straight to the printer. Field upgrades: the Ethernet module, RS-232 port, 802.11ac Wi-Fi with Bluetooth 4.1 module, cutter and dispenser (peeler) are installed in a printer already in use, with no trip to a service center. Battery power: the optional battery base with a 2750 mAh battery lets you print without a power outlet, e.g. on a cart moved between racks. Link-OS and Print DNA: remote configuration, firmware updates and printer monitoring. Initial setup is done from a phone (app over Bluetooth Low Energy or by tapping the Print Touch tag). 3-year manufacturer warranty, printhead 1 year or 1 million inches: the printhead and platen roller are user-replaceable parts, so the printer does not have to be sent away. Coverage can be extended with Zebra OneCare. Print method. ZD421d (direct thermal) is smaller and lighter (1.35 kg) and needs no ribbon. Direct thermal print fades over time until the label becomes unreadable, so choose ZD421d for shipping labels and other short-lived labels. ZD421t (thermal transfer, 2.05 kg) prints with 300 m or 74 m ribbons on paper and synthetic labels. Choose it when the label has to stay readable for a long time, e.g. on fixed assets, finished goods or warehouse locations. Resolution. 203 dpi means higher speed (up to 152 mm/s) and a 104 mm print width, the standard for logistics labels. Choose 300 dpi (up to 102 mm/s, 108 mm print width) for small labels, fine product text and dense Data Matrix or QR codes. Connectivity. Every variant has USB, USB Host and Bluetooth Low Energy for setup from a phone. The Ethernet version fits workstations on the company network. The Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3 version prints wirelessly, including from mobile computers. Ethernet and 802.11ac Wi-Fi with Bluetooth 4.1 can be added later as modules, while Wi-Fi 6 is best chosen factory-installed.

Zebra MC3400 and MC3450 are Android mobile computers with a physical keypad and the successors to the MC33 series, built for warehouses and light manufacturing: receiving, picking, stocktaking and shop-floor reporting. They come in a gun-style version and a straight-shooter version, and their look and handling are nearly identical to the MC33, so workers switch over without retraining. MC3400 works on Wi-Fi, while MC3450 adds a 5G modem, GPS and nano SIM and eSIM slots. Qualcomm 4490 (octa-core, 2.4 GHz), up to 6 GB RAM and 128 GB storage: according to the manufacturer, nearly 2.5 times the processing power of the previous generation, with headroom for several apps running at once. Storage can be expanded with a microSD card up to 2 TB. IP65 and IP67 including the battery, 2.4 m drops to concrete: the device can be submerged and hosed down. Across the full operating temperature range (−20 to 50°C) it survives 1.8 m drops, and it passes 4000 tumbles from 1 m. Scan engines with IntelliFocus technology: the SE55 reads barcodes from in hand to more than 12 m away and the SE58 up to 30.5 m, so labels on the upper rack levels can be scanned from the floor. 7000 mAh hot-swappable battery: the battery is replaced without switching the device off, with temporary session persistence. PowerPrecision+ shows the health of each battery, making it easy to retire those that no longer hold a charge. An optional battery with a BLE beacon, combined with a Device Tracker license, helps locate a lost device, even when it is discharged. 29, 38 or 47-key keypad: larger keys with more spacing make it easier to enter quantities and codes, also with gloves on. Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3: three Wi-Fi bands (2.4, 5 and 6 GHz) and fast roaming between access points. MC3450 connects over 5G (data only) to public and private networks. 4-inch display with Corning Gorilla Glass and cameras: works with a bare finger, gloves or a stylus (stylus sold separately). A 13 MP rear camera with autofocus and flash and a 5 MP front camera let you document a damaged delivery or photograph a bill of lading. Check camera availability in the description of the chosen variant. Compatibility with MC33 chargers and batteries: when replacing a fleet, cradles and batteries from the previous generation remain in use. The accessory range is wide, from single and multi-slot cradles to holsters and vehicle holders, but charging cradles are usually sold without a power supply and cables, so include them in the budget. Configuration: Standard, Expanded or Full Featured. Standard has 4 GB RAM and 64 GB storage, a 350-nit display and the SE55 scan engine, and its upgrade path ends at Android 15. Expanded has 6 GB RAM, a 600-nit display with automatic brightness and an upgrade path to Android 18. Full Featured adds 128 GB storage. If the device is to stay in service for many years, choose Expanded or Full Featured. Connectivity. MC3400 is enough within the company Wi-Fi network. Choose MC3450 for yards, ports and field work: it has 5G, GPS and two SIMs (nano SIM and eSIM). MC3450 is available only in Expanded and Full Featured configurations. Housing. The gun-style version (528 g) has a scan trigger and suits work that is mostly scanning. The straight-shooter version is lighter (442 g) and has scan buttons on the keypad and on the sides. Scan engine. The SE55 comes with the Standard configuration. In Expanded and Full Featured you choose between the SE4770 with a red laser aimer, which reads barcodes even in bright sunlight and captures documents, and the SE58 with a range of up to 30.5 m for scanning containers, pallets and the top racks. Keypad. Numeric (29 keys) for entering quantities, function-numeric (38) or alphanumeric (47) when text is entered too. The Standard configuration comes with 29 and 38-key keypads. Terminal emulation. Ivanti Velocity comes preinstalled and licensed: for the lifetime of the device on gun-style Expanded and Full Featured models, and as a 12-month subscription on the gun-style Standard and the straight-shooter Expanded and Full Featured models.

Zebra ZT111 is a semi-industrial thermal or thermal transfer label printer with a 104 mm print width. It is built for companies that have outgrown a desktop printer: those printing labels in series and across several shifts in warehousing, logistics and production. It has a metal frame but a plastic housing, which is the trade-off in this class. In return, it takes large label rolls and long ribbons. Printing up to 254 mm/s at 203 dpi, up to 152 mm/s at 300 dpi: a batch of shipping or product labels prints without waiting at the printer. Label rolls up to 203 mm in diameter on a 76 mm core, ribbons up to 450 m: labels and ribbon are changed far less often than in desktop printers, and long runs print without interruption. Metal frame, plastic housing and a bi-fold cover with a large window: the structure is stable, although the housing is plastic, which is worth knowing for harsh conditions. The bi-fold cover needs less clearance above the printer, and the window shows how many labels are left on the roll. Side loading with color-coded touch points and adjustable media sensors: the roll and ribbon are loaded without training. The printer handles continuous, die-cut, notched and black-mark labels from 19.4 to 114 mm wide. Simple operation and maintenance: 3 buttons and 5 status LEDs, platen roller and printhead replaced without tools. Built-in analytics and a printhead element sensor let you plan maintenance in advance. USB, RS-232, Ethernet, USB host and Bluetooth Low Energy as standard: the printer connects to the network without extra cards. The NFC Print Touch tag pairs it with a phone or tablet with a single tap. ZPL and EPL languages and emulation of other printer brands: the ZT111 can replace an older printer without changing label formats or writing new code on the system side. Secure Boot, Protected Mode and a decommissioning process: settings cannot be changed by accident, and before the printer is moved its configuration and files are wiped in a single process. Print technology. Direct thermal needs no ribbon and suits short-life labels such as shipping labels. Thermal transfer with a ribbon gives a durable print for product and warehouse labels that must last for months. The direct thermal version operates from 0°C, thermal transfer from 5°C. Resolution. 203 dpi is enough for logistics labels and prints fastest (up to 254 mm/s). Choose 300 dpi for small labels, fine text and dense 2D codes, at the cost of speed (up to 152 mm/s). EPL is available only on 203 dpi models. Connectivity. The standard ports are enough on a wired network. An 802.11ac Wi-Fi card or a second Ethernet card are options that can also be added later, without replacing the printer. Media handling. Tear-off is standard. The peeler presents the label separated from the liner, ready for manual application, and the guillotine cutter cuts continuous media and labels to length. Standalone printing. The ZKDU keyboard display unit lets you print stored label formats without a computer.

Zebra DS3608 and DS3678 are ultra-rugged 1D and 2D barcode scanners from the DS3600 series for production halls, warehouses and cold stores. They survive drops to concrete, tumbles and being thrown around the workstation, so they work where ordinary scanners do not last. DS3608 is the corded version, DS3678 the cordless Bluetooth version for forklifts and rack work. The series includes several optics versions: from standard range, through very long range, to reading DPM codes marked on parts. 2.4 m drops to concrete across the full operating temperature range: at room temperature the manufacturer specifies 3 m, plus 7500 tumbles from 1 m. The scanner handles everyday drops from the workstation and forklift without downtime. IP65 and IP68 sealing: dust, water and jet washing do not take the scanner out of service. Operation from −30°C for the corded version, from −20°C for the cordless one: for cold stores and freezers. When moving between a freezer and the hall, the manufacturer recommends a heated holder to reduce condensation. Class 1 Bluetooth on the DS3678: at least 100 m range in open air, so the forklift operator scans labels on racks and pallets without getting off. Wi-Fi Friendly mode limits interference with the warehouse network, and Virtual Tether alerts when the scanner goes out of range. PowerPrecision+ 3100 mAh battery: over 100,000 scans per charge, and over 80,000 on the XR version. A gauge on the scanner shows the charge level, and the cradle contacts are rated for 250,000 insertions. PRZM technology and up to 20 codes in one scan: damaged, dirty and poorly printed labels are read on the first try. A read is confirmed by LEDs, a beep, vibration and illumination of the barcode. USB, RS-232 and keyboard wedge: the scanner connects to a PC, mobile computer or POS. One cradle serves up to 7 cordless scanners. Industrial Ethernet through Network Connect: with the manufacturer's adapter the scanner sends data to the machine network over EtherNet/IP, Profinet, Modbus TCP or TCP/IP, without third-party converters.

DS3608 for a fixed production station and the lowest temperatures. DS3678 for forklifts and wherever the operator moves away from the station. SR and HP. SR is enough for typical labels: it reads a 20 mil Code 128 from up to about 71 cm. HP reads the same code from about 114 cm, and also captures photos, documents and text (OCR). XR, very long range. XR reads codes from a few centimeters to tens of meters: a 15 mil Code 128 from about 4 m, and large 100 mil codes from more than 26 m. The green laser aimer stays visible across the whole decode range. XR is the successor to the ER version and according to the manufacturer offers over 40% more range. HD and DP. HD is for very small, dense codes. DP reads DPM codes that are dot-peened, laser-etched, chemically etched or ink-marked on parts, including shiny and curved surfaces, as well as regular labels. KD, keypad and display. DS3678 variants with 19 keys and a color display let the operator key in data such as a quantity without walking to a PC. Kit. Some variants are the scanner only, and some are kits with a cable, cradle and power supply. In kits, check the AC line cord: it may be a US cord or missing altogether, in which case we add a European one. Line integration. At automated stations choose a kit with the Ethernet adapter, in the Profinet or EtherNet/IP version. The manufacturer provides a 36-month warranty on the scanner and cradle and 12 months on the battery.

Zebra ZD220 and ZD230 are small desktop label printers for direct thermal or thermal transfer printing with a 104 mm print width. They work well where label volumes are low and budget matters: fixed asset tagging, offices, small warehouses, shipping and production workstations with few prints. ZD220 is the basic USB model, while ZD230 prints faster, takes a longer ribbon and can be factory-fitted with Ethernet or Wi-Fi. For large runs and multi-shift work, a semi-industrial printer such as the Zebra ZT111 is a better fit. Printing up to 102 mm/s (ZD220) or 152 mm/s (ZD230), 203 dpi: labels are ready on demand, and the resolution is enough for 1D and 2D barcodes, text and simple logos. OpenACCESS clamshell design: the printer opens like a lid and the roll is loaded without training, which matters more than speed for occasional printing. Rolls up to 127 mm in diameter on 12.7 or 25.4 mm cores, media width from 25.4 to 112 mm: die-cut and continuous labels, black-mark media, tags, wristbands and fan-fold media. 74 m ribbon, and on the ZD230 also 300 m: the longer ZD230 ribbon means roughly four times fewer changes. ZPL II, EPL 2 and XML: the printer works with software prepared for Zebra printers, so it can replace an older model without changing label formats. One button and one status LED: operation comes down to loading the roll and printing, with no menus or settings on the device. Compact size and a weight of 1.1 kg (direct thermal) or 1.7 kg (thermal transfer): the printer fits on an ordinary desk or a shelf at the workstation. 2-year manufacturer warranty and ENERGY STAR: the warranty runs from the shipping date, and low power consumption matters when the printer stays on all day. ZD220 or ZD230. The ZD220 is enough for occasional printing over USB. Choose the ZD230 when the printer must work on the network (factory Ethernet or 802.11ac Wi-Fi with Bluetooth 4.1), print faster or use the 300 m ribbon. The ZD230 also has more memory for formats and fonts (256 MB Flash vs 128 MB). Print technology. The direct thermal version is smaller, lighter and needs no ribbon, but the print fades over time, so it suits short-life labels such as shipping labels. The thermal transfer version gives a durable print, needed for example on fixed asset labels. Media handling. Both printers can have a factory peeler that presents the label ready to apply. The ZD230 can also have a factory cutter. Connectivity. Ethernet and Wi-Fi on the ZD230 are factory-installed, so they must be chosen at purchase. When to choose another printer. The ZD220/ZD230 operates from 4.4 to 41°C, so it is not suitable for cold stores or unheated halls. For large runs and multi-shift work, the semi-industrial ZT111 is a better choice: it takes rolls up to 203 mm and a 450 m ribbon.

Zebra ZD621 and ZD621R are premium desktop label printers for direct thermal or thermal transfer printing, with a print width of up to 104 mm (203 dpi) or 108 mm (300 dpi). They fit the same places as the lower-cost ZD220/ZD230, but do better when labels are small and dense, the printer must be networked from day one, or it has to print without a PC. ZD621R also prints and encodes UHF RFID labels. The series is the successor to the ZD620 printers. Printing up to 203 mm/s at 203 dpi or up to 152 mm/s at 300 dpi: 300 dpi gives sharp fine text and readable dense 2D codes on small product labels. Ethernet, RS-232, USB 2.0 and USB host as standard: the printer works on the network out of the box. Bluetooth Low Energy is used for setup from a phone. Optional Wi-Fi 6 with Bluetooth 5.3: the module is factory installed or added later, without replacing the printer. Older variants come with Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) and Bluetooth 4.2. 4.3-inch color touch display with setup wizards: optional on the ZD621, on every ZD621R variant. The base version has 3 buttons and 5 status icons. Printing without a PC: on models with the display the operator selects a stored format on the printer and enters data with a scanner or keyboard connected to the USB host port. Optional 2750 mAh battery: according to the manufacturer it lasts a shift of printing at full speed and works with the cutter and peeler. The printer can sit on a cart and print labels where they are needed. ZPL and EPL plus emulations of other brands: the printer can replace an older Zebra and, with the Printer Emulations app, printers from other manufacturers too, without changing label formats. It also prints PDF files directly. Rolls up to 127 mm, 74 m or 300 m ribbon: plus a peeler with label-present sensor and a cutter, factory installed or added later.

The ZD621R has a built-in Zebra RE40 RFID reader/encoder (UHF EPC Gen 2 V2.1, RAIN RFID) and the touch display. Choose it when labels must carry an RFID tag. Otherwise the ZD621 is enough. Resolution. 203 dpi for address and logistics labels, and the fastest printing. 300 dpi for small product labels, fine text and 2D codes. Label handling. The base version has a tear-off edge. The peeler presents the label separated from the liner, ready to apply, and the cutter cuts labels and continuous media to size. Both options can also be added later. Connectivity. If the printer sits next to a network socket, Ethernet is enough. Choose a Wi-Fi variant for mobile stations and places without cabling. Display. If the printer is to work without a PC or is used by different people, choose the version with the color touch display. When to choose another model. For occasional USB printing the lower-cost ZD220/ZD230 is enough. For large runs and multi-shift work the semi-industrial ZT111 with 203 mm rolls and 450 m ribbons is a better fit. The ZD621 operates at 4.4 to 41°C. The box includes a power supply, power cords and a USB cable. The manufacturer provides a warranty of at least 2 years.

Zebra ZT421 is the wide, 6-inch model of the ZT400 series: a semi-industrial thermal and thermal transfer label printer with a metal frame and metal cover and a print width of up to 168 mm. It is the choice when a label does not fit into the standard 104 mm: large logistics labels, labels for shipping cases, pallets and bulky products. It runs continuously at production lines and in warehouses, with the same operation as the narrower ZT411. Print width up to 168 mm on media up to 178 mm: a full set of logistics data, several barcodes and readable text fit on one label without shrinking the font. Speed up to 305 mm/s: even large labels are printed on demand, at the pace of the line or the shipping area. 203 or 300 dpi resolution: 203 dpi is enough for large logistics labels, 300 dpi gives sharper text and dense 2D codes. Metal frame and bi-fold metal cover: the printer weighs about 18 kg and is built for multi-shift shop-floor work. The gears are reinforced with carbon fiber, and the cover folds to the sides, so little clearance is needed above the printer. 4.3-inch color touch display with an icon-based menu: language, settings and connectivity are changed without a manual, and color status alerts are visible from across the workstation. Backlit, color-coded media path and side loading: the wide label roll (up to 203 mm in diameter on a 76 mm core) and ribbon up to 450 m are loaded reliably even in dim light. Two USB host ports alongside USB, RS-232, Ethernet and Bluetooth: a scanner and a keyboard can be connected at the same time, and the configuration is copied to other printers with a USB drive. Link-OS and Zebra DNA: remote fleet management, integration with SOTI MobiControl and AirWatch, and the Network Connect option for direct connection to an industrial Ethernet network. ZT421 or ZT411. Choose the ZT421 for labels wider than 104 mm. When 4-inch labels are enough, the ZT411 is faster (up to 356 mm/s) and offers options not available on the ZT421: 600 dpi, on-metal RFID, linerless printing and the automated labeling kit. Resolution. 203 dpi for logistics and pallet labels, 300 dpi for product labels with fine text. EPL works only on 203 dpi models. Media handling. Tear-off is standard. Options: guillotine cutter with catch tray, peeler (media up to 171 mm), liner take-up and a factory-installed full-roll rewinder for printed labels. Connectivity. The two open slots take a Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) card with Bluetooth 5.3 or a Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) card with Bluetooth 4.2, a second Ethernet port, a parallel port or an applicator interface. RFID. UHF RFID (EPC Gen2 v2.1, ISO/IEC 18000-63) is available factory-fitted in the ZT421 RFID model or as a module installed on site in a standard ZT421. The printer selects the optimal encoding settings automatically.

Zebra ZT411 is a semi-industrial thermal and thermal transfer label printer with a metal frame and metal cover and a 104 mm print width. It is built for continuous operation at production lines, in warehouses and logistics centers, where labels are printed in series around the clock. What sets it apart from simpler semi-industrial printers such as the ZT111 is its metal housing, speeds up to 356 mm/s, resolution up to 600 dpi, a color touch display and upgrade options for RFID, linerless printing and print-and-apply. Metal frame and bi-fold metal media cover with a large window: built for multi-shift work on the shop floor and in the warehouse. The gears are reinforced with carbon fiber, and the high-retention USB cable is hard to pull out by accident. The window shows how many labels are left on the roll. Printing up to 356 mm/s with a short time to first label: the label is ready the moment the operator needs it, and large batches do not block the workstation. 203, 300 or 600 dpi resolution: from logistics labels to very small labels with fine text and dense 2D codes. 4.3-inch color touch display: settings, language and connectivity are changed from an icon-based menu without a manual. Color-coded status and error alerts are visible from a distance, so it is clear right away what the printer needs. Side loading with a backlit, color-coded media path: the label roll (up to 203 mm in diameter on a 76 mm core) and ribbon (up to 450 m) are loaded quickly, even in poorly lit areas. USB, RS-232, Ethernet, Bluetooth and two USB host ports as standard: a scanner and keyboard can be connected at the same time, and a USB drive can copy the configuration to other printers. Two open slots take additional connectivity cards. Protective printhead coating and printhead element detection: the coating reduces printhead wear in direct thermal mode, and element detection helps maintain print quality. Link-OS and Zebra DNA tools: networked printers are managed remotely, one by one or as a fleet (Printer Profile Manager Enterprise as an option), also from SOTI MobiControl or AirWatch. The Network Connect option connects the printer directly to an industrial Ethernet network without extra hardware. Resolution. 203 dpi is enough for logistics and pallet labels. 300 dpi gives sharper small product labels. Choose 600 dpi for miniature labels. EPL is available only on 203 dpi models. Width. The ZT411 prints up to 104 mm. For wider labels there is the ZT421 with up to 168 mm. Media handling. Tear-off is standard. Options include a guillotine cutter with catch tray, a peeler, a liner take-up and a factory-installed full-roll rewinder for printed labels. Connectivity. Two slots take a Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) card with Bluetooth 5.3 or a Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) card with Bluetooth 4.2, a second Ethernet port, a parallel port or an applicator interface. RFID. The UHF RFID module (EPC Gen2 v2.1, ISO/IEC 18000-63) is installed on site, also later. For the ZT411 there is also a version for thicker on-metal RFID labels for metal containers and assets (not on 600 dpi models). Linerless printing. According to the manufacturer, ZeroLiner fits up to 50% more labels per roll and leaves no liner waste.

Printronix ODV-2D industrial printers of the T8000 series have two versions: 4-inch (T8000 4' ODV-2D) and 6-inch (T8000 6' ODV-2D) maximum print width. These printers are distinguished primarily by their built-in barcode verifier, which evaluates barcodes and examines their correctness, already during the printing process. If the printed barcode is incorrect, the printer will print the incorrect label with a distinctive pattern (such as a checkerboard), and then print the label again, this time with a correctly printed barcode. When the printer detects an incorrectly printed code, it sends a message to the 3.4-inch color LCD display. In addition, it stores all reports of detected errors. The verifier checks up to 50 1D and 2D barcodes at the same time while printing the label. Not only is the correctness and quality of the print verified, but also the code's compliance with ISO standards. In addition to verifying code compliance, data validation is also carried out, all during the label printing process. The device has navigation buttons that make using the intuitive menu even easier. It has as many as two motors, which allow the Printromix ODV-2D T800 printer to work continuously, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Thanks to automatic heat control, the printer supports longer head life. In addition, the T8000 ODV-2D provides high print quality - 203 dpi (model T8204) and 300 dpi (model T8304). It prints by thermal and thermal transfer, and has wired (Ethernet, GPIO, Parallel, RS-232, USB) and wireless (Wi-Fi standard 802.11ac) interfaces. The rugged design will work well both on the production floor and in the warehouse.

The ODV-2D T6000e barcode label printer prints labels with a maximum width of up to 4.1' (104 mm). What sets it apart is its built-in verifier, which checks the validity of barcodes, evaluates their quality and performs data validation, during the label printing process. Thanks to the built-in barcode verifier, you get 100% assurance that incorrectly printed codes will not reach the customer, because after detecting a misprinted code, the printer prints the entire label, and then prints it again, this time with the correct version of the code. All this happens without the help of an employee, which also gives you 100% automation. The device creates detailed reports based on the errors it detects, so you always know the cause. The T6000e also has the ability to print, encode and verify RFID tags, all at the same time. Each of the 3 models prints at a different resolution: T6204e - 203 dpi, T6304e - 300 dpi and T6604e - 600 dpi. It uses thermal and thermal transfer printing methods, is equipped with an LCD display with helpful buttons, and has a reinforced construction and steel cover, indicating its intended use for the industrial sector. The ODV-2D T600e supports 1 and 2D codes and is compatible with most printer programming languages. It has a built-in barcode GPS that immediately detects barcodes on the label. The verifier is capable of detecting and examining up to 50 codes simultaneously.

Honeywell PX940 is an industrial label printer with built-in barcode verifier.

Dodatkowym atutem zastosowanego rozwiązania jest wymienny moduł kamery, co pozwala dostosować urządzenie do pracy z kodami o różnych rozmiarach. VeriCube współpracuje z dowolnym komputerem – stacjonarnym lub laptopem – z zainstalowanym oprogramowaniem do oceny poprawności kodów REA TransWin32. Urządzenie przesyła wyniki pomiaru do programu, w którym są one porównywane z wartościami wzorcowymi. Poza weryfikacją poprawności kodu REA TransWin32 umożliwia optymalizację parametrów druku kodów, a w konsekwencji poprawę jakości ich wydruku, poprzez dostarczanie dokładnych wyników  weryfikacji. 

Przenośny weryfikator kodów kreskowych REA Check ER zaskakuje niewielkim rozmiarem, który idzie w parze z bogatą funkcjonalnością i wygodą użytkowania.
