1 Introducing the SP-200E
The SP-200E is a 2-inch thermal printer with an integrated, easy-to-use, push-button control panel. It lets you
generate subscriber accounts and print account information with the push of a button. It is also compact and
portable and does not need a computer or printer. It is ideal for offices, coffee shops, libraries, hotels and
airport terminals that provide Internet access for customers.
You can connect multiple SP-200Es to a single hotspot or service gateway to generate accounts in different
locations.
