Extech Data Systems, a leading developer of portable printers for enterprise-wide applications, announces its new battery-operated portable thermal 4'' (112mm) receipt printer: the S4500THS.

This ultra-lightweight printer features state-of-the art high-speed wireless capabilities for serial, IrDA, Bluetooth and 802.11b communication at 115K bps.

The S4500THS is perfect for graphics printing and is ideally suited for the rigours of mobile computing.

The S4500THS has a newly designed print mechanism, that features a rated speed of 3" per second.

A rechargeable lithium ion battery enables portable use and delivers 2.2 amps of power for more receipts per charge.

The new printer housing, developed from the IEC 68 certified mechanical design used in the Extech 2'' and 3'' printers, includes an additional elastomer over-molding for extra protection.

The Extech S4500THS uses a new 32-bit Arm 7 micro-controller, a flash-based, highly integrated CPU that comes fully packaged with completely new firmware, resident fonts, rotated fonts, downloadable fonts, graphics, logos and bar codes.

It also incorporates 2MB FLASH memory and 1.2MB SRAM memory and provides for maximum performance in any environment.

This 4'' printer offers serial and IrDA communications as standard, in addition to Bluetooth or 802.11b as integrated options.

Other options include a 3-track magnetic card reader and/or smart card reader.

In-field programming is possible using a high-speed connector located below the battery.

The printer comes with a 12-month warranty on all parts including print head.
