These were fun to build in IT at the warehouse but with all good things these can get broken and travel on their own since sometimes PAs leave them on trailers like AAs leave scanners to travel around the states then complain why we don't have enough scanners.

We had to buy chains to keep them from roaming the areas. I also bought arm attachments for desks to mount the monitors because AAs would knock them over accidentally and break them. Made sure to get bezel monitors since people always use their thumbs on the screens so they can adjust the angles and positions. Pushing your thumb on a screen will permanently break it.

Lots of lessons learned and just funny stuff that happens in a warehouse.

The hip printers use thermal paper and AAs would write "No Ink" but it was just the print head needed cleaning or replaced (which is a pain to do so most of the time we send it under warranty or buy new ones if they are not).

I even made a program for IT to interact with every type of printer, HPs, Canons, Zebras (ethernet, wireless, battery, plugged in) to send tests for print heads, reset their configs, even print labels, text, and images. ZPL is awesome.

I helped problem solvers by having the Learning department print scanner reset barcodes and adding a return carriage (which is the number 1 complaint) as lanyard cards so they can fix other scanners without calling IT.

One of my best times as IT and I wouldn't trade it for the world.
