Mobile receipt printer

Mobile receipt printers are widely used in trade, services and manufacturing. Such devices are used to print various receipts and invoices, fines, price tags. Portable printers can be seen at work in the trading floors of shops, supermarkets, and warehouses. Mobile receipt printer is designed to automate the most important areas of trade and industrial enterprises.

Print technology

Portable mobile printers use direct thermal technology. The image is formed by heating the printer's thermal head with special thermally sensitive paper (receipt tape). Dots of thermal paper that have been heated turn black. The heat is generated by the thermal head of the printer, which can produce an image with a quality of 203 or even 300 dpi. The size of the point in millimeters familiar to us is 0.08mm - 0.13mm. Compared to laser technology, thermal printing provides poorer resolution and is unable to reproduce grayscale. Nevertheless, the capabilities of direct thermal printing are enough to solve the typical business tasks listed in the first paragraph.

Choosing a Mobile Receipt Printer

The mobile receipt printer works in difficult conditions. It constantly moves from place to place, can fall, or be exposed to adverse factors (temperature changes, moisture, dust). Therefore, such devices are structurally significantly different from their desktop counterparts and stand out in a separate class. A mobile printer for printing price tags or receipts must meet high requirements for portability, reliability, durability, be productive and at the same time be compact and light in weight. The typical weight of portable devices is from 0.2 to 1.2 kilograms. In addition, for portable devices operating independently or in conjunction with a data collection terminal or an industrial tablet, it is critical to have bluetooth and wi-fi wireless interfaces on board to connect to data collection terminals or an industrial portable computer.
The devices are well protected from dust and moisture and have a high IP rating. As a rule, special belt covers are available for portable devices that increase the security class. Such covers allow you to use the printer on the street, for example, to issue tickets for illegal parking.
