friend told us recently about his company stock take, he among others, was taken from his regular job for a couple of days to help. The result of it was that some £3 million pounds worth of equipment was "missing" - yes it is a big company - yet his bosses are reluctant to investigate more efficient methods of carrying out important tasks. The question is why? when there is so much technology available to help. Investing in data capture and making it part of your everyday business life, no matter what the size of your company, will result in savings because you will KNOW what you have and where it is, staff won't need to be drafted in to help with critical tasks so your business can continue to function normally at all times. We can advise you on all types of data capture products and devices so call us soon, you know it makes sense.

Zebra Keyboard Display Unit Save Time, Space & Money with the Standalone Keyboard Display
Z
ebra is pleased to announce the availability of the new Zebra Keyboard Display Unit; the ZKDU. Zebra’s keyboard display units offer solutions that allow the printers to operate independently of a host machine, which in turn can remove the need for an often expensive computer and save on valuable work space. A standalone operation means the printer can be removed from the ties of an operating infrastructure allowing for the format retrieval, data entry and label output to be located at the point of application or production, which will save costs, reduce user’s walk time and ensure that the correct information is applied at the point of manufacture or assembly. The new ZKDU is a drop-in replacement for the current KDU and adds support for ZPL formats, auto-sensing serial port, and auxiliary interface. The ZKDU retains all of the useful features of the current KDU including a 62 key QWERTY keyboard with a 2-line, 20 character display and compact form factor. The keyboard’s auto-sensing feature ensures that the new ZKDU is compatible with any Zebra printer that has a DB-9 (female) serial port and supports either EPL or ZPL programming languages. With the addition of the new ZKDU, Zebra now offers three keyboard display units: KDU - 62 key QWERTY, 2 line, EPL Format ZKDU - 62 key QWERTY, 2 line, EPL & ZPL Format
