With the convenience of printing labels, tags and receipts where and when you need to through Bluetooth and WLAN connectivity, the Intermec PB50 portable printer increases productivity for warehouse operations, or wherever you need a combination of wireless communication, ultra-fast print speeds and well-managed battery life in a rugged, wearable design.

The Intermec PB50 mobile printer interfaces seamlessly with Bluetooth-enabled Intermec mobile computers including the Intermec CK31, Intermec CK61, and Intermec CV30 vehicle mount computer, along with the CN3, and 700 series. The PB50 portable label and receipt printer from Intermec offers the flexibility to either be worn using a shoulder strap or belt clip, or it can be mounted to a mobile cart or fork truck. A unique design that combines a high-voltage battery, patented techniques for power management of the print head, and high speed electronics normally only used in desktop printers enable the PB50 to print the full-width of all pixels simultaneously and achieve “time to first label” in less than half the time of other label printers.

Patented power management of the 32.6 watt hours of available power mean the PB50 will not only maintain consistent power to the print head to maintain high quality printing, but also prevent frequent disruptions for battery changes. With the latest in wireless security including WEP (64 and 128), WPA/WPA2 Personal Mode, and WPA/WPA2 Enterprise Mode (PEAP, TTLS, LEAP-Open only), the PB50 is fully compatible with your Wi-Fi infrastructure, mobile computing and network security, so users won’t have to sacrifice peace of mind for the convenience of wireless operation. The Intermec PB50 label mobile printer is supported by Intermec SmartSystems™ technology, delivering unique remote management capability. This allows managers to view details such as CPU part and serial number, battery voltages, and firmware versions. The user can also remotely update PB50 firmware via the host device. In addition to accommodating a variety of media types, the unique design of the PB50 allows users to print labels, from 2” to 4” wide, which is valuable to companies needing a flexible solution to address multiple applications with a single device.

With 64MB of on board Flash memory and the ability to store a full Unicode font, the PB50 gives users the flexibility to print multiple languages on a single label. In addition, users can improve label throughput by storing frequently used label formats and graphics on the printer, eliminating the need to access files from the host system. The Intermec PB50 is also designed for ease of use making loading, charging, printing and diagnostics fast and simple. With straightforward, intuitive status indicators and audio feedback, end-users can be sure that the device has enough media, battery life, and wireless connectivity so they can perform their job efficiently.
