Overview
Processing shipments more quickly and effectively increases productivity and reduces errors. That’s just what the RL3e (72 mm/2.8 in) and RL4e (105 mm/4.125 in) printers are for. We’re so confident they can keep pace in the busiest distribution centers, warehouses, and supply chain/logistics environments that we back them with a two-year warranty.
Ready for Harsh Environments
Rugged and reliable RLe Series printers continue to print after 26 consecutive drops to concrete from 1.8 m (6 ft) – even in extreme temperature conditions.
Easy to Integrate
Includes popular language emulations that allow you to easily replace existing printers in the workplace. Compatible with most popular WMS packages.
Easy to Use
Change paper roll with one hand. Speed label application with an intuitive LCD screen and a peel-and-present mechanism.
Great Battery Power
The lithium-ion battery offers maximum power capacity for an eight-hour shift, even under the toughest conditions.
Co-Engineered Media Supplies
Ensure optimum, trouble-free performance and guarantee the highest print quality and image stability.
Complete Line of Accessories
Printers come with a battery and a swivel belt clip. A selection of charging accessories and other mounting accessories are also available to ease use in trucks, on forklifts and for charging single or multiple batteries.
Backed By a Two-Year Warranty
RLe Series mobile printers come standard with a two-year warranty, providing added reliability and lower total cost of ownership for your business.
Product Details
RL3e (72 mm/2.8 in) and RL4e (105 mm/4.125 in) rugged mobile label printers improve efficiency and productivity by allowing your team to print and apply barcode labels directly at the point of application.
By using these RLe Series printers to print on-demand labels, you’ll also eliminate the danger of mixing up batch-printed labels, which can lead to costly shipping errors. You can even mount the RL3e and RL4e printers on forklifts for added convenience and versatility.
The RL3e and RL4e printers certainly reflect our reputation for rugged and reliable portable receipt printers. In fact, we’re so confident in the quality and long-term reliability of these printers that we include a two-year warranty free of charge. That’s double what the competition offers.
