* Under the mezzanine in Receiving there is a Zebra S4M attached to an HP print box that is used to print license plates

==Recommendations For Future Improvement==
* According to Gerald if the Buyers moved items out of the "Tobacco Area" into some other spot in the warehouse then we could take the printers from that picking station and make them spares- this was done
* License plate label printer in Receiving may not need to be there because any S4M can print license plates
* The high traffic picking stations have network cabling that can be used to network attach printers without the use of a HP print box, but tracing and terminating those network cables doesn't happen instantaneously.
* Something think about is that Zebra has industrial spec label printers similar to the S4M that can connect via wifi which would greatly simplify the cabling mess in the DC
* If we are to use the Lexmark MS521 printers then we have to have the corresponding cable termination supplies and tools
* Pictures (some blurry) of all the printers mentioned on this page are available on the SuperServer in Tech\Common
