Bixolon Co. Ltd., a mobile, label and POS printer manufacturer, has introduced its SRP-Q300, a 3-inch (80mm) direct thermal mPOS cube receipt printer with mPOS configuration capabilities, according to a press release.
Featuring printing from Android, iOS and Windows mobile devices, the SRP-Q300 now supports Auto Bluetooth and WLAN connection via NFC for Android smart devices.
The SRP-Q300 NFC functionality offers both readable and writable compatibility. The unit provides initial printer setup and configuration with Android smart devices running on Android OS V3.1 or higher. Enabling user convenience throughout the printer setup, Bixolon has launched the Android utility software application on the Google Store named Q300 utility Q300 for exclusive setup compatibility with the SRP-Q300.
The Q300 utility for Android supports Bluetooth interface setup via NFC (Bluetooth pairing, Bluetooth setting change), WLAN interface setup via NFC (WLAN setting change), virtual memory switch manager via NFC and Bluetooth enabled, tailored settings for the user's environment. Alongside an NV image tool (non-volatile image tool) via Bluetooth, it enables users to save graphics onto the printer's flash memory to accelerate print times.
"With a sleek, ultra-compact design, front-exit printing, the SRP-Q300 allows flexible mPOS configurations to free up counter space and complement the latest mPOS systems," John Kim, Biloxon director of marketing, said in the release. "When paired with Biloxon's intelligent B-gate connectivity hub, the SRP-Q300H model can seamlessly connect to the host tablet device (via Bluetooth communication) while supporting one charging port and up to four USB peripherals (scanner, cash drawer, customer display, RFID reader, scales, etc.)."
