CHALLENGE
Keep students on the go with portable point-of-sale for busy
bookstores and mobile concessions at sporting events, concerts
and other events. The DukeCard ofce supports 600,000 daily
transactions from nearly 1,800 card readers.
SOLUTION
To support more innovation and improved mobility, Duke
upgraded from its legacy mobile computers and printers to new
models with Bluetooth connectivity and other helpful new
features. Duke worked with its retail and mobile application
software provider, Sequoia Retail Systems, to specify and
evaluate options for its next-generation systems. By switching to
Microsoft
®
Windows
®
Mobile-based MC70 handheld computers
from Motorola’s Enterprise Mobility Business, Duke could take
advantage of new software applications from Sequoia.
Zebra’s iMZ220 was the ideal mobile printer to pair with the new
computers. It is smaller and lighter than the legacy Zebra mobile
printers in use, while meeting Duke’s high standard for reliabili
-
ty. Duke also considered the iMZ220 printer’s secure Bluetooth
connection to the handheld computer a major upgrade over its
previous cabled conguration.
“We like the iMZ220 because it’s sleek and durable, but not
heavy,” says Drummond. “Plus, all the mobile and barcode
printers we’ve had from Zebra have been reliable.”
RESULTS
Mobile printing system has been used for event concessions,
special events, yearbook distribution, and for various retail
inventory and point-of-sale operations throughout the Duke retail
system.
iMZ220’s compact size and Bluetooth connec
-
tivity has led to noticeable improvements in
concession stand operations.
Future plans call for shuttle service drivers
to use the mobile computers and printers
as well as streamline book buyback opera
-
tions at the end of each semester.
