Key Advantages

The RL4 802.11 Linerless printer boasts wireless 802.11 connectivity for flexible mobile printing on the go. Its rugged design enhances durability, making it resistant to drops, shocks, and vibrations in industrial environments. The linerless label capability reduces waste and lowers operating costs by eliminating release liners. USB and AC adapter support facilitate easy charging and data connectivity options. The printer offers fast and reliable direct thermal printing with sharp barcode clarity. Integration with Honeywell barcode technology ensures broad compatibility, streamlining data capture processes across many applications.

Limitations

Being a direct thermal printer, the RL4 is prone to label fading when exposed to heat or sunlight over extended periods. Wireless connectivity may be affected in areas with poor network coverage, limiting deployment flexibility. The linerless labels require specific media handling which may not be available from all suppliers, potentially leading to sourcing issues. Battery life constraints may require frequent charging during intensive usage periods. The relatively small print width restricts usage to narrow label formats, unsuitable for larger printing needs. Lastly, the rugged features increase the device weight compared to non-rugged mobiles, possibly affecting portability.
