Datamax RL3 Label Printers 3 in, Serial, Bluetooth v2.1, Liner-less media

The Datamax Honeywell RL3 Label Printer is a rugged, mobile 3-inch direct thermal printer designed for on-the-go labeling in warehouses, logistics, retail/POS, manufacturing and healthcare environments. Optimized for fast, reliable barcode and receipt output, the RL3 delivers 203 dpi print quality and print speeds up to 102 mm/s while supporting linerless and conventional labels. Built for field use, variants offer IP54 ingress protection (with protective cover), MIL-STD drop resistance, a rechargeable lithium‑ion battery and a compact portable form factor, enabling seamless integration into mobile workflows through USB, RS‑232, Bluetooth and optional Wi‑Fi connectivity for consistent, easy-to-deploy labeling across demanding operations.

Key Features

• Rugged mobile design: Industrial-grade construction with IP54 protection and 1.8 m (6 ft) drop resistance to withstand warehouse and field use.
• High-quality direct thermal output: 203 dpi resolution produces sharp, readable barcodes and text for traceability and POS applications.
• Fast, efficient printing: Up to 102 mm/s print speed and a 3-inch (72 mm) maximum print width support rapid label production on the move.
• Flexible media handling: Supports labels, linerless labels and fanfold media with black-mark and gap detection to cover diverse labeling needs.
• Broad connectivity: USB 2.0, RS-232 serial, Bluetooth (v4.0/LE) and optional Wi‑Fi (802.11 a/b/g/n) simplify integration with existing systems and mobile devices.
• Portable power: Rechargeable lithium‑ion battery (2200 mAh) and extended battery options enable full-shift operation and continuous mobile use.
