Which printers work best with Networks barcodes and hand-helds?
Almost every printer manufactured today will work as a network printer. The network and communications personnel are usually responsible for configuring printers into the enterprise system. Therefore, the only limitations are your network and the hardware constraints of the printer itself. That is why it is crucial to know what the business requirments are for printing before investing in the hardware. For example, if you have a requirment to print barcode labels on a regular basis throughout the day, it would be wise to invest in a printer that is designed specifically for this purpose. If you are prinitng large amounts of graphics on documents, you will want to invest in a printer that is able to support this and has extra memory for this purpose. The real answer is, plan the printing environment before planning the networking environment.
