Mobile printer, carry case and belt clip

The MLX-6240 is a very compact, mobile thermal printer. It easily fits into a jacket pocket, or it can be clipped onto a belt with the leather carry case (included).
The standard version includes both RS-232C and IrDA interfaces but the popular Bluetooth model is ideal for mobile receipting, door to door selling (or collecting) and outdoor event POS.
With high capacity Li-Ion batteries as standard, the printer can be used for a prolonged period before recharging (which only takes 4 hours). A similar device is available with an integral magnetic card reader - see MLX-6240MSR.
