Rugged, Compact, Reliable

The microFlash 2te is the industry’s most rugged and reliable 2-inch wireless portable printer, in addition to being the smallest. In fact, the 2te is up to 33% smaller its nearest competitor! The 2te printer will dramatically increase the efficiency and productivity of your workforce, and ensure that “printer failure” is a term that is rendered nearly obsolete. A grueling series of tests prove the 2te’s ability to withstand the most punishing physical abuse. As for performance, the printer’s processor is so fast that it rivals the output time of portable printers that claim to have twice the print speed. The 2te is also easy to integrate into new or already established applications. It utilizes USB, and is compatible with today’s handheld terminals and laptops. The 2te can be managed through many software packages.

Industry Solutions for You

The 2te printer is small, compact and reliable. It is the ideal solution in many industries and has found its home in the following applications:

	Route Accounting and Direct Store Delivery Your job is to make sure that your products get to your customers on a timely basis as efficiently as possible. You’ve invested heavily to make sure you can do it better, less expensively and more effectively than your competition, and you know that any mechanical or electronic malfunction can not only ruin your day, but ruin your business if left unchecked. The micro design of the microFlash 2te makes sure that it never gets in the way, regardless of how bulky or heavy your products are. Because the microFlash 2te is worn so easily, it never gets taken off so it won’t get left behind in the truck. It won’t fall into a bank of snow or drop into a parking lot puddle because you’ve just tossed it on the top of your delivery items. And when it’s time to perform, it hits the ground running delivering industry leading throughput, and leaves your customer with all of the information they need.
	Field Service You already know that in these busy times, anything that saves your customer a few moments of time is crucial to the success of your business. Improving your customer’s satisfaction at a cost that’s less than your competition is the key to repeat business and success. Keep customer satisfaction high by delivering abbreviated transaction documents immediately with a printer that won’t stop your technicians from doing their work, or require a special trip back to their vehicle to get the paperwork. This keeps the tech moving onto the next job and keeps your customer happy.
	Mobile POS Mobile point-of-sale systems are increasingly popular for use in supermarkets, restaurants, hotels, stadiums and casinos, as well as almost any type of retail establishment. They offer businesses the advantage of taking payments and issuing receipts separately from traditional payment kiosks or even in isolated areas such as parking lots. The 2te’s small size and quick throughput makes it the perfect choice for POS applications. Its long lasting battery and large media capacity allow workers to issue receipts all day long without recharging or changing media rolls. The magnetic card reader also allows users to accept credit cards on location.
	Warehouse and Distribution Getting products from point A to point B at the lowest cost with the least amount of errors keeps you in the black, and keeps your customers loyal. Making things simple for a low cost labor workforce is the key to stopping those errors. The microFlash 2te is here to help by giving you a solution that keeps your packages moving in the right direction. Simplify decision making in transshipment points, distribution centers and warehouses by temporarily labeling packages with easy to read shipment door destination marks and codes. With the lightning fast processing speed, lineless media option and small, compact and wearable design, the microFlash 2te is ideal for temporary identification of incoming packages. This makes sure that your packages know where they’re going right when they come in the door. How could it be any simpler?
