Limitations
The QLn220’s print speed is moderate at up to 4 inches per second, which may be insufficient for extremely high-volume printing tasks. The maximum print width is limited to 2.2 inches, constraining the size of labels or receipts. Its 203 dpi resolution, while sufficient for typical receipts, may not be suitable for printing high-resolution graphics or detailed images. The device lacks NFC connectivity, which some modern mobile printers offer for quick pairing. Memory capacity is relatively modest, limiting the complexity and quantity of stored files. Lastly, replacement parts and accessories for the QLn series may be harder to find as the product ages.
