RLe Series
Rugged Mobile Label Printers
Datamax-O'Neil by Honeywell adds to its reputation for rugged
and reliable portable receipt printers with the RLe Series. RL3e
(76mm or 3 in print width) and RL4e (102 mm or 4 in print width)
are durable direct thermal printers with a rugged design and
reliable performance that will continue to operate long after other
printers have failed. We’re so condent 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.
Anybody who’s ever been in a warehouse knows that when
shipments are processed quickly and effectively, productivity
is increased and errors are reduced. The RLe Series improves
efciency and productivity by allowing workers to print and apply
barcode labels directly at the point of application. Using the RLe
Series to print on-demand labels also eliminates the danger of
mixing up batch-printed labels and can lead to big savings in
shipping error avoidance. The printer can even be mounted on
forklifts for added convenience and versatility.
The RLe Series is built to keep pace in the busiest
distribution centers, warehouses, supply chain and
logistics environments.
We’ve made integration easy. Replace existing printers
using built-in language emulations. The RLe Series is
compatible with most popular warehouse management
software programs, independent label-design programs and
remote management packages.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
The RLe Series
continues to print after
26 consecutive drops
to concrete from 1.8 m
(1 ft) even when at
extreme temperature
conditions.
The RLe Series comes
with popular language
emulations that allow
you to easily replace
existing printers in
the workplace.
The lithium-ion battery
offers ma ximum
power capacity for
an eight-hour shift,
even under the
toughest conditions.
Change paper roll with
one hand. Speed label
application with an
intuitive LCD screen
and a peel-andpresent mechanism.
Co-engineered media
supplies ensure optimum,
trouble-free performance
and guarantee the
highest print quality
and image stability.
