Liberate Desktop Printers from Fixed Locations

Liberate Desktop Printers from Fixed Locations

Typical desktop printers are stationary and require a fixed power connection to function. But what if you need immediate printing without being tied to one location? Or what if the designated printing station is too far from the action? The solution is simple: the desktop printer needs to be movable. But how?

You’re in luck. We now offer a battery station for TSC Auto ID TH DH Series desktop printers, allowing them to operate without power cords and print on the spot. This combination simplifies integration, reducing the need for additional power-supply setup or custom configurations.

Who benefits from the battery station?

Pairing a desktop printer with a battery station unlocks new application possibilities across various industries. By no longer being limited to areas near power outlets, users gain greater flexibility in their operations and can streamline workflows.

In warehouses, it can be used on printing carts, allowing operators to move freely while fulfilling orders on the spot. This reduces the time needed to obtain labels and improves efficiency. In healthcare settings, medical carts equipped with battery-powered desktop printers enable efficient specimen and medication labeling, as well as better bedside care.

This setup is also beneficial in environments such as deli counters or packaging stations, where immediate labeling is required. A movable desktop printer ensures seamless operations, even in areas with limited power access.

How does it work?

The battery station is designed for ease of use and simple maintenance, ensuring that it does not create an additional burden during operations. It is compatible with all printers in the TH DH Series and features a detachable design, allowing users to swap printers as needed. The battery station connects easily to the desktop printer via a power cord and data cable, reducing setup time.

In terms of power, the high-capacity 4,000mAh (86Wh) battery can print up to 40,000 inches* of media on a single charge. This reduces the need for frequent charging that can interrupt workflows. Moreover, the smart battery is equipped with a Battery Management System (BMS) for real-time status monitoring, either directly through the printer or remotely via TSC Console and TSC Console Web.

The battery station itself offers flexible charging options depending on the work environment. Operators can push the print cart to a power outlet after a shift and charge the entire station without removing any components. Alternatively, they can quickly swap out depleted batteries for fully charged ones. Either way, the station can be easily charged with a standard printer power supply.
