Brother puts printer in the glovebox

Brother International has announced its new Brother PocketJet 600 series of mobile printing solutions for printing A4 sized documents.

The PocketJet uses Thermal Print Technology to eliminate the need for ink jet cartridges or toner ribbons. Images are produced as the specially coated thermal paper passes over the heated print head. High quality images are created as the paper reacts to the heat and turns black.

Thermal technology allows the printer to be highly compact and also eliminates any risk of ink spillages, leaks or unsightly print smudges.  It offers Bluetooth, Infrared and USB connections and can easily be connected to PDAs, Smartphones, tablet PCs and notebooks.

At just 26 cm wide and weighing 473g, PocketJet fits easily into a briefcase or computer bag, and can be mounted in vehicles or other work areas.  Pricing ranges from $A499to $A679
