Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

On April 27, 2009, Ernst & Young LLP (“E&Y”) was dismissed as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Zebra Technologies Corporation Profit Sharing and Savings Plan (the “Plan”). The decision to dismiss E&Y was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Zebra Technologies Corporation (the “Company”). E&Y remains the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company, the sponsor of the Plan.

E&Y’s reports on the Plan’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007 and through April 27, 2009, there were no (i) “disagreements” (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and its related instructions) between the Plan and E&Y on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of E&Y, would have caused E&Y to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports, or (ii) “reportable events” (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K) between the Plan and E&Y.

On April 27, 2009, following approval by the Audit Committee, the Plan engaged Crowe Horwath LLP (“Crowe”) as its independent registered public accounting firm. During the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007, and the subsequent interim period prior to Crowe’s appointment, neither the Plan nor anyone acting on behalf of the Plan consulted with Crowe regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction (either completed or proposed), (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Plan’s financial statements, (iii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement or reportable event, or (iv) any matter or event set forth in Item 304(a)(2)(i) or (ii) of Regulation S-K.

The Plan furnished E&Y with a copy of this Current Report on Form 8-K prior to filing it with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Plan also requested that E&Y furnish a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether it agrees with the statements made in this Current Report. A copy of E&Y’s letter to the SEC is filed with this Current Report as Exhibit 16.1.
