PB3 Product Overview

Designed specifically for use with Intermec CN3, CN3e, and CK61 mobile computers, the PW50 four-inch mobile workboard printer provides a convenient, integrated solution for DSD and field service applications. With its integrated DEX communications, fast print speed, Bluetooth connectivity, and optional integrated smart card and magnetic stripe readers, the PW50 provides everything the mobile worker needs to process transactions quickly and easily.

This integrated solution provides a single convenient bundle that can easily be transported or installed in a vehicle. Custom holders safely secure the handheld computer in the mobile printer, yet allow easy removal for scanning or data entry. Hand straps and shoulder straps are available to simplify moving the equipment between the truck and the point of delivery. Drivers can easily keep batteries charged on both the printer and handheld computer: a single electrical connection through the vehicle mount or 12 volt adapter will charge both devices simultaneously.

Mobility and Power Supply

The PW50 interfaces seamlessly with Bluetooth-enabled Intermec mobile computers including the CN3, CN3e, and CK61. Bluetooth connectivity allows the print job to be initiated whenever the handheld and printer are within wireless range of each other.

A unique design combines a high-voltage battery, patented techniques for power management, and high speed “desktop” electronics. This enables the PW50 to print the full-width of all pixels simultaneously and achieve best-in-class print speeds.

Patented power management of the robust 4-cell Li-Ion battery enables the PW50 Intermec printer to maintain consistent voltage to the print head for high quality printing, independent of the charge remaining in the battery. Battery capacity is designed to print 2 full rolls of receipts with 10% density text without the need to charge or change the batteries.

With 64MB of on-board Flash memory and the ability to store a full Unicode font, the PW50 Intermec printer gives users the flexibility to easily use multiple languages. In addition, users can improve throughput by storing frequently-used formats and graphics on the printer, eliminating the need to download large files from the mobile computer.
