　　The working principle of a handheld printer seems more like a computer mouse than a printer. It is equipped with laser sensors developed by Philips, which track the movement of the printer and sense its location. When the device moves on the surface of paper (or other materials), the sensor continuously emits infrared laser to the surface, and then measures the scattering of the reflected beam. This scattering allows optical sensors to track the speed and direction of the printer relative to the page. Next, the built-in controller matches the position coordinates with the pixel map of the target text (or image) and initiates an algorithm to determine the next pixel to be printed.

　　Printing a page on a handheld printer only takes 10 seconds. Due to the fact that only a small amount of laser reflection is required to complete the aforementioned motion tracking, it can work on almost any type of surface. As for the printed content, it can be uploaded through Bluetooth, USB, and infrared interfaces. The version with a built-in camera makes it easy to take photos and print on site.

What is the coating function of a tablet printer?

　　　　With the development of the printing industry and the continuous progress of technology, flatbed printers, as a high-tech inkjet printing equipment that is non-contact with objects, can perform full-color printing without any material limitations.　　General object materials can be printed directly with ink, but some special materials may have the phenomenon of not absorbing ink, or ink is difficult to adhere to its smooth surface, so a coating is needed to treat the surface of the object, so that the ink and printing medium can perfectly combine and present a perfect printing effect.　　The coating must have the ability to firmly adhere to the printing medium and blend well with the ink without affecting the final presentation effect of the ink on the medium.　　Can coatings be universal on various printing media?　　The answer is negative! Coatings are selected for use with printing media and ink. Coatings can take several minutes, such as metal coatings, ABS coatings, leather coatings,

Reasons and solutions for high particle size in white ink of tablet printers

　　　　There are usually two reasons for the high graininess of white ink in tablet printers: quality issues with the white ink itself, and issues with the curve. The solution is as follows:　　1. Compared to other pigment inks, white ink itself has larger precipitates and impurities due to the addition of titanium dioxide. If the quality of the white ink used is poor, on the one hand, it will accelerate the clogging process of the nozzle, shorten its service life, and on the other hand, there will be large particle size and ink breakage during the printing process. This requires contacting the manufacturer to replace with higher quality ink.　　2. Problems with curves　　When there is a large particle size in white ink, the general curve used is a larger printed curve. You can contact the manufacturer and send a smaller printed curve to replace it, which can solve this problem.　　It should be noted that if the tablet printer itself has a mixing function for ink, it can be turned on for 5 minut

Print fonts/patterns are light

Cause analysis and solution:1. The voltage used for printing is too low, for example, a 24V printer uses a 12V power supply;2. Improve the printing effect by increasing the printing density and reducing the paper feeding speed;3. Clear print head (need tools: cotton swab, alcohol);4. Replace with better paper;

Small investment, high return digital label printer series

　　　　In the past two years, packaging labels have undergone significant changes. This is closely related to the change in consumer behavior caused by COVID-19. More and more enterprises in the market have introduced digital label printing technology to reshape the production mode of packaging and labels, which also accelerates the development trend of current digital label printers.　　For small businesses, outsourcing label printing is common. They believe that outsourcing costs are lower, the company does not have space to accommodate personnel for equipment use, or the company does not have the knowledge and skills required for printing. Therefore, outsourcing is their preferred label printing method.　　However, accompanying problems continue to arise, such as increased outsourcing costs, communication difficulties, substandard quality, and small batch coding printing, which have become challenges faced by enterprises. Therefore, many small businesses choose digital label printers to p

Analysis and maintenance of portable printer faults

　　Preliminary inspection:　　Check if the power supply of the printer is connected properly and confirm if the plug is loose.　　Check if the connection cable of the printer is intact and undamaged to ensure that it is not broken or damaged.　　Check if the ink cartridge or toner is sufficient, and refer to the relevant instructions based on the printer model.　　Troubleshooting:　　Check if the printer driver is installed properly. If it is not installed or has an updated version, try reinstalling or updating it.　　Clean the rollers and nozzles inside the printer using specialized cleaning tools or a soft cloth dipped in alcohol.　　Check if the paper transfer system is smooth and promptly resolve issues such as paper jams.　　Try restarting the printer and connected computer.　　Replacing accessories:　　If using an ink cartridge printer, try replacing it with a brand new ink cartridge to ensure compatibility.　　If using a toner printer, try replacing it with a brand new toner to ensure compatibility.
