Lexicon Supports MDI Business Mission with Zebra Printer Donation

Filed under: barcode equipment, causes, refurbished, zebra, Announcements

We recently got a call from Minnesota Diversified Industries (MDI) regarding Lexicon's used/refurbished barcode label printers. They wanted to replace one of the Zebra printers in their St Paul facility; they use Zebra thermal transfer printers to produce customer specific labels as well as to print shipping and barcode labels for their US Postal Service packaging and fulfillment operation.  They're pretty good at it, too -- read how they recently produced and shipped postal tote number 75,000,000 to the Postal Service on their site here!

MDI is a Non-Profit Enterprise employing people with disabilities while delivering high quality products & services to business customers.  In addition to providing MDI-specific job opportunities and vocational support, they offer programs and services to adults with disabilities; they also assist individuals to prepare for and obtain jobs in the community. They are able to do this by partnering with various businesses and providing services tailored to each customer's unique requirements.

Mitch Rogers, a Lexicon Business Development team member, worked with MDI to ensure that we could support their printer spec requirements.  After some successful testing, we determined that a fully refurbished Zebra 140xiIII would meet their needs to a "T".  As we learned more about and reflected on MDI's mission, Lexicon decided to donate the Zebra printer to MDI out of admiration and support for the good work that they are doing.

The Lexicon team was able to fill the order in about a week and Mitch reports that the "printer is working wonderfully” for their operation.  Read their blog entry about Lexicon's donation here.

We believe that it's the important to support good works in our communities, and MDI is an organization that inspires us with their special mission.
