US-based Zebra Technologies, a global digital solutions leader, will showcase two new desktop printers that offer fixed, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity at Arab Health 2016, opening tomorrow (January 25) in Dubai, UAE.

The ultra-compact ZD410HC is a 2-inch direct thermal printer, designed for the smallest of work spaces.  This printer can be placed conveniently wherever employees need to work, while the ZD420HC 4-inch thermal-transfer printer provides a unique, intelligent ribbon cartridge with easy, instant loading and status reporting for maximum uptime.

Both printers provide disinfectant-ready plastics to help reduce hospital-acquired infections and a medical-grade power supply that is IEC 60601-1 certified.  They are ideal for printing high-quality pharmacy prescriptions, patient ID wristbands, lab and specimen labels, according to a statement.

The new printers are Link-OS--enabled, making it easier for employees to use and IT to manage. With new status icons, users can instantly identify and rectify printer issues while IT can remotely manage all printers through an easy-to-use, web-based interface.  The Virtual Devices application enables the simple replacement of non-Zebra printers.

Zebra will also demonstrate the Time Tracking Solution for Acute Myocardial Infarction Patients, commercially deployed at Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC) in Leiden, the Netherlands.

Hozefa Saylawala, sales director, Middle East, Zebra Technologies, said: “Patient safety is the number one priority for healthcare organisations and total visibility into hospital operations is critical for staff efficiency.  At Arab Health 2016, Zebra Technologies will be demonstrating to Middle East healthcare providers how they can use IoT and mobile solutions to empower their staff and gain intelligence and visibility into their assets and performance and consequently deliver better patient care.” – TradeArabia News Service
