The RPe Series Printers from Honeywell are Rugged, Versatile, and Lightweight

Posted August 25, 2022
rpe series mobile printers

Today, we’re covering the RP2e and RP4e Series of industrial mobile receipt printers from Honeywell.

Look no farther than the RPe Series if you need an extremely durable and dependable mobile receipt printer for route accounting, direct retail delivery, citation printing, auto rental return receipts, and other similar applications.

How Durable are the RPe Series Printers?

The RPe Series mobile printers are designed to withstand the worst conditions imaginable, as seen by their extensive temperature range and IP54 classification, which protects against the entrance of dust and moisture. Mobile printers are subjected to a variety of forms of routine abuse, some of the most common of which are repeated drops, vibration, and exposure to dust and water.

These arduous conditions are no match for the RPe printers, which are built to resist them and provide you with years of reliable thermal receipt and label printing. Both the RP2e and RP4e rugged printers endure drops to concrete, exposure to dust and water, and continuous high volume printing throughout the day with a battery life that can last an entire shift.

How is the Battery Charge of the RP2e and/or RP4e?

Speaking of battery life, all models include a rechargeable battery that can be charged either inside or outside the printer. This battery was made to last most of an entire field worker’s shift for the majority of possible applications. The RP2 has a 4 hour charge, while the RP4e has a max charge around 7 hours. It’s also possible to change the battery in a high-discharge current lithium-ion cell battery without having to reset the printer or lose communication.

The latest RPe printers can operate without a battery for up to one hundred and twenty seconds (depending on whether or not it uses wireless connections) without dropping its connection or requiring a restart.

In addition to long battery life and hot swapping convenience, your field workers will also have no trouble handling the printer easily over the course of a busy workday, thanks to its lightweight construction and ergonomic layout. Weighing in at just 2.2 pounds or lighter depending on the model, and a very compact 6″ x 4″ x 3″ size – it’s incredibly easy to handle Honeywell’s latest mobile printer.

What are the Printing Capabilities of the RPe Series Printers?

The RP2e / RP4e printers are optimized to print labels and receipts continuously throughout the day at a rate of up to five inches per second.

The printer has a large media capacity and can accommodate labels with or without a liner. Additionally, it has the ability to detect gaps between labels as well as black lines on the top or bottom of the media.

Each version of the RPe Series is capable of printing a variety of print widths, and the RPe Series itself comes in a variety of print widths to accommodate your specific need.

A battery eliminator option is offered for use in situations in which the printer will be permanently installed in a vehicle and connected to a power source. The printer is also capable of monitoring its own health and providing analytics pertaining to the age of the battery, the quality of the printhead, and any odd environmental circumstances that the printer may have been exposed to. This enables you to manage your whole fleet of printers and ensures that you have the highest possible uptime.

The Operational Intelligence solution offers insights to assist with the management, tracking, and optimization of printer assets, which enables preemptive repair and replacement.

Comparing the RP2e vs. the RP4e Printer

The main difference is size, with the RP2e mobile printer being a slightly lighter and compact version. The RP4e mobile printer is just a bit larger and heavier, but allows for slightly larger media rolls and receipt sizes.

The TC52ax-HC Touch Computer

Posted August 11, 2022

To give every patient the best care possible, empower your health care workers with the best technology (that doesn’t ever get in the way).

The TC52ax-HC healthcare mobile computers from Zebra offer a disinfectant-ready enterprise solution for healthcare organizations that want to improve the operational efficiency of their clinical workers and give better, more accurate care to patients around the clock.

What’s New for the Zebra TC52ax-HC?

The Zebra TC52ax-HC brings the ultimate in mobile computing for healthcare providers and adds some great improvements:

Zebra’s touch computers are designed with hospital staff in mind. An emergency room triage is a hectic environment already.

Their focus is on patients, after all. These moments of technology downtime add up in the big picture, however. Don’t let outdated healthcare computers hold you back.

The TC52ax-HC provides instant familiarity to users. Anyone who has grown accustomed to a consumer grade smartphone can operate the TC52. It’s powered by Android, has an easy to read 5-inch HD display, and a responsive touch screen that responds even to latex gloves in a frantic environment.

TC52ax-HC Features

  • Android Enterprise Recommended, runs Android 11 with support through Android 14
  • Sharp, bright display for visibility in low light, protected by Gorilla glass panel
  • Wet, gloved fingers or stylus both work great, thanks to multi-touch operation
  • Easier to clean and reduce risk of spreading microorganisms thanks to medical-grade, disinfectant friendly plastic casing
  • Lightning fast, first time capture of 1D & 2D barcodes, patient wristband labels, prescriptions, IV bags, and insurance paperwork for both intake and ongoing patient care
  • Reliable batteries to last entire 12 hour shifts (up to 14 hours with PowerPrecision+)
  • 13 megapixel color camera captures HD photos just like a smartphone
  • 5 megapixel front-facing camera enables Telehealth consultations and collaboration with coworkers via video conferencing
  • Voice calling and secure text messaging
  • Emergency alert button is fully programmable for easy calls to security desk or responder of your choice

Doctors, nurses, technicians, support, and supply chain staff in healthcare will feel right at home with the TC52ax-HC. For a detailed list of specifications, download the TC52ax-HC infographic.

It’s time to empower the healthcare workforce with the very best technology. Your patients, as well as your bottom line, will thank you for it. Contact us to discuss the TC52ax-HC today.

Improve Warehouse Efficiency with Honeywell’s 8670 Wireless Ring Scanner

Posted August 11, 2022

The Honeywell 8670 Wireless Ring Scanner brings a lot of versatility to the mobile warehouse worker. Its 1D and 2D scanning performance, fast decoding, and ability to read poor-quality or damaged barcodes make it the best in the industry.

Key Benefits of the 8670 Ring Scanner vs. Competing Devices

A few things to highlight about the Honeywell 8670 ring scanner are its lower ring scanning profile, lack of ring spin, and comfortable fit. See the 8670 in action below.

Lower Profile Ring Scanning

The Honeywell 8670 ring scanner has a much lower profile than the Zebra RS507.  In other words, it sits lower on your finger.  This is important because with this device you’ll be doing lots of piece picks, case picks, etc.  With a lower profile ring scanner, you are much less likely to hit the scanner on the bin/racking when reaching into a bin/racking to pick something. Rack hits = frustrated operator, progress disruption, damaged scanner.

No Ring Spin

The scanner button on the Honeywell 8670 does not sit below the finger.  So when you pick up a box, the scanner stays put. If the button sits below your finger, the scanner will spin every time you pick up a box.  So you’ll have to readjust your scanner after every pick. Life with a scanner that does not take this into account turns a 2 step process into a 3 step process.

Step 1: Scan item.

Step 2: Pick up box.

Step 3: Re-adjust ring scanner.

Comfortable, Secure Fit

Practice putting the ring scanner on until you’ve got it down to one smooth motion.  This also applies to the wearable computer.

First impressions go a long way, and if your workers continue to fumble with the scanner trying to put it on, this greatly diminishes the productivity that you are trying to capture in your business.
