What if inventory errors were a thing of the past?
Imagine a warehouse where inventory discrepancies are nearly eliminated, labels are always accurate, and workers never waste time walking back to a central printer. With Zebra barcode printers, that future is already here—bringing mobility, speed, and precision directly to your warehouse floor.
Let’s give you the brief of the same –
Why Traditional Labeling No Longer Works
In high-velocity environments like manufacturing, logistics, and retail, centralized label printing is slow, error-prone, and inefficient. Workers often lose valuable time walking to fixed printers, mislabeling inventory, or scanning incorrect locations.
Here’s how Zebra’s mobile solutions flip that script.
How Zebra Mobile Barcode Printers Fix It – Right at the Point of Activity
Zebra ZQ620 mobile printers, powered by Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, allow your staff to print labels on-demand—right where inventory activities happen: during cycle counting, putaway, and inventory transfers.
With seamless integration into mobile WMS apps, warehouse staff can generate shelf and pallet labels instantly. The result? No back-and-forth. No guesswork. No labeling delays.
According to Zebra’s 2024 Warehouse Vision Study, 82% of operations plan to increase real-time mobile device usage to boost inventory accuracy.
At-a-Glance: Mobile Printing Advantages
| Feature | Traditional Painting | Zebra ZQ620 Mobile Printing |
| Labeling Location | Fixed Printer Station | Point-of-Activity |
| Walk-Time | High | Near Zero |
| Labeling Errors | Frequent | Significantly Reduced |
| Real-Time Inventory Updates | Delayed | Instant |

What’s Slowing Down Your Warehouse Efficiency?
Still relying on static label printers? You’re likely battling high error rates, slower inventory turnarounds, and frustrated floor staff. With Zebra barcode printers, your cycle counts become faster and far more reliable—labels match inventory in real time.
Can You Afford to Keep Labeling Errors in the Dark?
Wrong shelf labels during putaway? Delayed product traceability in a high-pressure retail or manufacturing setting? Even minor labeling issues can cascade into major operational setbacks.
Zebra ZQ620 eliminates those risks with precision labeling on the move.
And when you pair these printers with Zebra handheld scanners, you’re looking at a unified mobile solution—scanning, verifying, and printing, all within seconds.
Label Smarter During Cycle Counts and Putaway
Mobile barcode printing isn’t just a convenience—it’s a strategic move to improve your KPIs. During cycle counts, your team can immediately relabel any inventory variance—no delay, no walking, no rework. During putaway, shelf labels are printed and applied as items are stored.
And with real-time WMS sync, every label update is instantly reflected across your system.
Transfers Without the Headaches
Labeling during inventory transfers often involves errors, mismatches, and delays. With Zebra barcode printers, workers can print new pallet labels on the spot, ensuring that items are correctly tagged before they leave or enter zones.
This dramatically reduces the chance of misplaced inventory or compliance issues.
Here’s the kicker: Want all of this without overhauling your existing infrastructure? That’s exactly where 5th Wave steps in—with scalable, plug-and-play mobility solutions tailored to your environment.
So What’s Next?
Wouldn’t it be smarter to print only what you need, when you need it, right where it’s needed? It’s time to stop treating labeling as an afterthought—and start using it as a precision tool for inventory accuracy.
