New hand-held printer is just the ticket
Technology solutions specialist, Brother, has launched a new hand-held A6 printer, designed for emergency services personnel who need to print on the move.
Slim, light and compact, the new M-Print device allows users to print documents from a PDA, BlackBerry or laptop, wherever they are.
The portability of the new machine makes it perfect for printing out tickets or fines and information leaflets. This optimises workflow and cuts costs, saving duplication of input by back office staff, whilst reducing the amount of paperwork mobile workers need to carry with them.
The new M-Print MW-260BT can print on several kinds of paper, including carbon copy sheets – especially useful when a signature is required.
An earlier version, the MW-140BT, is already in use with the Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire Ambulance and Paramedic Service (BHAPS), the Lothian and Borders Police Force and the British Transport Police, where it has been a great success.
The new model prints on larger format paper - A6 rather than A7 - offering greater choice to users who require larger print outs or need to fit more data on the page.
A Bluetooth connection removes the need for cables and thermal transfer technology provides quick, mess-free printing, with no ink cartridges to change.
Brother printing software is included for Pocket PC 2003, Windows Mobile 5 PDA’s, Blackberry and Windows 2000/XP/Vista PC’s and laptops.
Software development kits can be provided for Compact Framework, C++, CE.Net and Blackberry to add mobile printing into bespoke applications.
The Brother M-Print M W-260BT will be priced at £322.55 (SRP ex VAT). For more information, please visit www.brother.co.uk or call 0845 6060626.
