At The Rugged Store, we try and offer custom built “from the ground up” solutions to our customers.Beyond the mission critical necessity of a mobile and rugged computer, many tasks require a mobile printer.Mobile thermal printers offer fast and reliable printing without the high price and problems caused by ink or toner becoming too hot or too cold.Two of the leading thermal printers offered at The Rugged Store are the Brother Mobile PocketJet 7 (or PJ7) and the brand new Printek Interceptor 820 (or I820.)In this video, The Rugged Store walks you through some of the differences of the two printers.These thermal printers are both mobile, but each features different advantages that the other does not which might make them better suited to a specific task or scenario.The PJ7 thermal printer is sleek and small making it highly mobile but comes with the drawback of requiring either drop in page-by-page printing OR requires an external case (an external case is also required for vehicle mounting.)While larger and heavier, the Printek I820 offers self contained printing, holds thermal paper in the chassis of the printer itself and is ready to be vehicle mounted.The PocketJet 7 has double the battery life of the I820 boasting on average 600 prints per battery cycle compared to the Interceptor 820’s 300 prints per battery cycle.Conversely the I820 can print 11 pages per minute compared to the PJ7’s 8 pages per minute.
If your use scenario requires high mobility such as taking the mobile printer on job sites or into customer’s homes or if you are away from power for long periods of time or traveling, the Brother PocketJet 7 mobile printer might be your best choice.However, if you are planning on mounting the mobile printer in a vehicle and want to enjoy faster print speeds and the advantages of thermal printing with a small foot print, the Printek Interceptor 820 might be a better choice.Not sure of which thermal printer is right for you or interested in either the I820 or PJ7?Visit us at https://theruggedstore.com/mobile-printers-accessories-and-supplies/
