QLn420™ Mobile Printer
Zebra’s popular QL™ family of
direct-thermal mobile label printers
has built a highly satisfied following
based upon its proven drop-
resistant durability; user-friendly,
productivity-boosting features; and
easy integration. As Zebra’s third
generation of QL printers, the QLn™
series extends these QL-platform
benefits to the “nth” power.
A new seamless, one-piece design
joins the printer’s over-molding
to make the printer even more
durable. The QLn printer can
boost your operation’s productivity
through a larger, sharper,
easier-to-navigate display; faster,
higher-quality printing; a variety
of proactive alerts that help keep
working printers in employees’
hands; and many convenient
charging accessories. And your
IT department will find the QLn
printer easier to integrate into
existing environments with
such features as Zebra Global
Printing, improved network
performance—including 802.11n
wireless LAN capability for more
robust and reliable connectivity
and throughput—and ZebraLink™
support.
