OPTIONS / UPGRADES

Handy shoulder straps and carry cases complement the built-in
belt clip for ultimate wearability. Spare batteries as well as single
or 6-slot battery chargers are also available.

Choose to upgrade the serial interface model with a Bluetooth
or wireless LAN interface kit, and there’s a linerless kit to issue
labels without backing paper, for waste-free labelling*.

Finally, for applications on the road there is a cigarette
lighter charging adapter (12V input) for the B-EP2 and in the
warehouse, there’s a DC adapter (48V input) to charge either
model in a forklift.

APPLICATIONS

Retail

Price mark-down & shelf-edge
labelling, queue busting, promotions

Warehousing & Logistics

Shipping labels, invoices, parcel
tracking, delivery notes

Hospitality

Event & meal tickets, mobile POS

RUGGED ENDURANCE
ON THE MOVE

We have put our big printer technology into the smallest possible package.
Perfect for labelling on the shop floor, printing prescriptions on hospital wards,
issuing tickets in the street or barcoding in the warehouse.

Robust and rugged, withstands a 1.8m
drop on to concrete (1.5m for B-EP4)

Healthcare
Mobile pharmacy, patient IDs,
document & lab sample tracking

Public Services
Traffic wardens, police, facilities
operatives & public transport
(tickets, fines, utility billing,
metre reading, etc.)

Field Support
PAT testing, receipts for field
sales & support charges

LIGHTER, FASTER

We’ve always created the most compact
machines on the market. Each one is so
small and light (from 480g & 860g including
battery) that you can wear or carry it and
forget that it’s there.

Get top quality printed images at top speeds.
The EP range boasts a market-leading
print speed of up to 4 inches per second
(105mm/sec) and a high performance 32bit
RISC CPU ensures lightning-fast processing.
With ‘peel & present’ on demand, simply take
a label and the next one is issued in a flash.

DURABLE & ROBUST

Portable printers can be required in various
environments so it’s natural to expect them to
perform perfectly even in extreme conditions.

In the real world, accidents can happen,
so we developed rugged rubber corners,
easily passing a 1.8m drop test on to
concrete (1.5m for B-EP4).

We didn’t stop there with the rubber,
we used it on the external ports to
protect them from any spills. Even strict
IP54 enclosure standards against dust
and water ingress are surpassed with the
optional carry case.

Backlit LCD
user interface

SO SIMPLE TO USE

For user friendliness and very fast operator
training times, there’s nothing like the clear
backlit LCD read-out on the larger Toshiba
thermal printers. So we put it into the mobile
range as well, displaying a label counter,
battery level, wireless signal strength and
error messages. There’s audible alerts too,
just in case.

LESS MEDIA CHANGES

Papers or labels dropped in with one hand?
No problem. The large capacity we’ve
designed means changing media much less
often, three times less often than the B-SP
series. Plus there’s no cores required on the
rolls, so minimal waste.

POWER OPTIONS

The high endurance lithium ion battery
ensures many hours of operation. Swap it
out for external recharging or simply charge
in situ using an optional adaptor.

EASY NETWORKING

The EP range is Wi-Fi certified, making
networking to all wireless or cabled
systems a breeze.

USB 2.0 and IrDA (infrared) are standard
across the EP models. Simply choose
between Bluetooth, wireless LAN and serial.
The latter model can even be upgraded to
wireless and Bluetooth at a later date using
the optional kit.

Wi-Fi certified (GH40 model)

Market-leading media capacity for fewer roll changes

SWIFT INTEGRATION

With MS Windows® drivers (2000, XP, Vista)
and configuration utilities as standard,
there’s also an SDK for Windows® CE

5.0 and Windows® Mobile 5.0, a unique
“BCP Print for CE” Emulator for developing
bespoke applications with ease.

The EP series speaks many programming
languages and is designed to simply
plug and play without any software
changes, whether it’s a Toshiba printer
using TPCL or any make using BCI
(Basic Command Interpreter).

Both units will handle inputs from other
peripherals such as scales and scanners.
Uniquely, they support ESC/POS language.
