1.2 Honeywell PX940 barcode verifier label printer.

You should remember this printer from our earlier article dedicated to it. It is among the few printing devices equipped with a barcode verifier, which is a tool that evaluates and verifies the quality of barcodes printed on the label. How it works. The Honeywell PX940 printer prints a label, then the verifier reads its contents, detects barcodes, verifies them and evaluates their quality, analyzing up to 200 elements at the same time! And if a barcode is printed incorrectly, the Honeywell PX940 prints the entire label and notifies the employee that this printout is unusable. This allows many companies to avoid many mistakes, often very expensive ones. You can also buy the printer in a version without a verifier - thanks to its extreme accuracy and speed of printing, it will be a great tool for increasing productivity in your company.

Of course, these are just a few of the functions of these devices, which are sure to facilitate work in many industrial workplaces and beyond.
