The new demand for mobile document printing mobile applications in the field

With the improvement of technology, especially the emerging of low powerelectronic components and the software product has become more sophisticated, portable computing devices (portable information terminal) is gradually began to be used in various industries.

In developed countries, mobile application first began to rise in a supermarketand logistics industry, if you accept the DHL, federal and other large logistics enterprise service, you can see their courier everyone with a handheldterminal, at the same time receiving the information from various input this ticket goods to the handheld terminal. In the supermarket, handheld information terminal mainly for inventory work. In the early days of these mobileapplications, the handheld terminal is mainly used for recording data. With the development of handheld information terminal, such as PDA, various portablebarcode data collector, mobile phone, IC card handheld terminal and so on to appear, in addition to logistics, inventory, in tobacco, traffic police, meter reading, insurance, city appearance management, health care, tourism,catering, card management industry began using the handheld informationterminal record the data, used for manual data recording operation to replacethe original.

However, with the expansion of mobile applications, data recording pure has been unable to meet the growing demand, a variety of functions began to be integrated into the information terminal, such as a bar code scanning, contact / non-contact IC card reader, GPRS/CDMA data communication function and so on, there has also been an external device of handheld information terminalvarious with, such as micro external barcode scanner, portable printer etc..

Here to talk about is used as a portable miniature printer external equipment.

The developed countries because of technical leader in mobile application, sothe rise soon, there is specially available for portable printer design of mobileapplications, such as the famous America Zebra Inc, France Ai Ke Shengcompany, recently also in micro printer has a reputation for EPSON, CITIZEN company also began to set foot in the portable printer market.

Because of domestic development of portable bill printing needs of the largestlogistics industry is not mature, the main focus of information construction for the development of database system, so it is only potential demand, which also makes the appearance of the portable micro printer than the developed countries a few years later.

At present in the domestic mobile applications are mainly distributed in thepublic security police, meter reading, tobacco distribution, catering industry and so on, in these industries, the traffic police, meter reading, tobacco distribution are documents produced, the traffic police should notice of administrative penalty, meter reading process need to pay fee notice, tobacco distribution need to order or delivery list in the process of law enforcement,these documents can be found by the sound of a portable micro printer, can say even if it is a complete mobile application system, the document printing is indispensable. If the traffic police have a handheld information terminal simply in order to query the driver and vehicle information without recordingpunishment information in the process of law enforcement, then obviously did not play its function, if the record of the punishment information they still have to manually fill in the penalty notice, not artificially increased traffic workload,low work efficiency, so the mobile police system portable printer. In the readingprocess, if the use of portable mini print print the payment notice, to maximize the use of existing resources to improve the reading efficiency, reduce the payment notification delivery cost sheet.

Although the present application domain also is not wide enough, but with theChina logistics mature, portable printer will play its role in the field of logistics.
