Here’s what to look for in your mobile printer to ensure long service life.

Demand for reliable, affordable mobile printing solutions continues to rise among companies that rely on a field workforce to fulfill their core mission. With mobile technologies and operating systems changing so rapidly, however, it has become more difficult for IT executives and purchasing decision makers to ensure that the mobile printers they specify today are designed to handle new technologies as they evolve.

The mobile printer debate is no longer focused on comparing the merits of rugged, industrial-grade versus consumer-grade solutions. It just makes sense that any mobile printers deployed must be built tough enough to handle weather extremes and the hard knocks of over-the-road use. Today mobile printer users are focusing more on the connectivity and compatibility issues that arise from the growing diversity of mobile devices and disparate operating systems (OS).
