Looking to purchase 2 Zebra QLN 420 Mobile Printers

2

Hello! We are wanting to start our Child Check-in within the next couple weeks. Our budget for the printers is pretty small so does anyone know where we can get 2 inexpensive Zebra QLN 420 Mobile Printers? We are obviously ok with used as long as they are still in working condition.  Thanks!

    Just mentioning this in case it was your usage plan, just so you know the iPad check-in app does not work with bluetooth printers. You would have to use WiFi on these printers in order to print to them from the iPad app.

      We are planning to use the printers inside our building majority of the time (the exception would be if we did check-in outside for a day camp or something). We will have one upstairs and one downstairs, our WIFI signal should be strong enough for both of those spots so I think that is fine for us?

        Do you actually need these to be cordless (battery powered) for your situation? I'm asking because the QL420 is not exactly "cheap"... it's (I think) more than the ZD500, which is the only "desktop" Zebra model that has dual band n wifi, so the QL would only be better if you actually needed a completely mobile/wire-free solution. That said, we buy all of our Zebras from it1.com They have been significantly cheaper than even internet sources we've found. As for used... you could try eBay but that can be a real disaster if you get someone selling junk that doesn't work.

        Thanks!  I went through the stuff I got from the Rock 2017 Conference and found the info of the guy I spoke with at it1.  I think we found a printer that will work.  Thanks again!
