Customer Service Area: Large stores with high returns turnover benefit from the 2844-Z printer

at the customer service area. As returned merchandise is processed, the items will either be

repackaged & relabeled for resale or sent back to the manufacturer where applicable. To print the

labels for these operations, the store installs LP 2844-Z printers with ZebraNet PrintServer II

internal Ethernet option and they are networked into the store system. The benefits of ZebraLink

include remote printer administration, which enables the printers to be managed from one central

location, not necessarily onsite. This reduces training and support requirements and the costs.

Using ZebraLink, a remote administrator can upload updated formats or firmware to the printers,

check the printer status and have alerts sent to a pager, cell phone or email.

Additionally, when the return desk volume is high, such as after the holidays, the 2844-Z superior

throughput and speed can save time and boost efficiency.

The compact sized printers take up little space in the often-crowded customer service area and

the OpenACCESS design makes loading media a simple task.
