Mylox MLX8280 Portable Printer
The MLX-8280 from Mylox Technologies is the 3 inch equivalent of the MLX8260. It is based on the reliable Fujitsu FTP638 clamshell thermal printer mechanism and a customisable interface board.
Internal, high capacity, Li-ion rechargeable batteries are accessible for user maintenance via a hatch on the underside. The printer can be operated direct from a 12V DC source such as a vehicle or from the universal AC adapter (included) with or without the batteries fitted. The simple and effective LED illuminated push button functions as a status indicator, paper advance and self test feature (customisable).
The standard interface is RS-232C serial but USB and Bluetooth versions can be ordered. This printer is highly adaptable and customised firmware, fontsets and functionality can be specified. Impact dot matrix and 80mm thermal versions are also available.
