1. INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the TEC B-210 series portable printer.

The B-210 printer displays its high performance with extraordinarily high speed printing up to 50.8 mm/sec. It has a considerably compact and light body of 88 mm in height, 128 mm in width and 50 mm in depth, weighing about 460 g.

As data communication method, minute radio communication (for GH11 and GH12 models) or IrDA (GH24 model), which requires no cable for data transmission between a handy terminal and the printer, is adopted.

Owing to a low power consumption design and use of a chargeable lithium battery as a power source, this printer can issue 300 pieces of 40-mm pitch labels with a fullycharged battery.

Loading a label roll is very simple; just put a label roll into the printer and close the media cover. A belt holder provided on the rear of the printer enables the printer to be held hands-free at your waist for improved productivity.

This manual contains general set-up and maintenance information and should be read carefully to help gain maximum performance and life from your printer. For most queries please refer to this manual and keep it safe for future reference.
