Zebra QLn420: Rugged 4-Inch Mobile Label Printer Product Review

Article by Mike Monocello, editor-in-chief
Testing by Paul Aldridge, sales manager, Paragon Print Systems

A common printer in field service applications, the rugged 4-inch mobile label printer was a class of printers we were eager to test for VAR and ISV (independent software vendors) readers. For this review, we partnered with VAR Paragon Print Systems to leverage the company’s years of bar-coding expertise and facilities. To determine which printers to test, we relied on the results from January’s Best Channel Vendor survey. Using that survey data, which came from thousands of VARs and ISVs, we were able to narrow the field down to those printer manufacturers readers told us had the most reliable, feature-rich products.

On the surface, it seems as if a review of 4-inch label printers could be boring or lack any insight. After all, how much innovation and differentiation can be packed within such a small form factor? Well, quite a bit actually.
