Handheld Computer

A handheld computer is a handheld device that can perform similar functions to a PC or Laptop but is more limited in terms of software and hardware. Handheld computers increase individual productivity and give you ongoing, real-time insights into your operations and enables mobile workers to be more efficient by working in a paperless environment.

With a handheld computer you'll track inventory more efficiently and accurately, manage assembly line production more effectively, improve shipment accuracy and speed product returns - even in harsh, dirty or extreme environments

A majority of handheld computers come with Bluetooth technology, Bluetooth is ideal for printing wirelessly between a handheld computer and a mobile printer due to the required distance, it's also suitable for short range cordless scanning in small warehouses or offices. All devices that need to connect through Bluetooth must be Bluetooth enabled.

Bar Code Scanner

Bar code scanning technology is used in a variety of services. Bar coding is a simple and accurate way of tracking products and is used by millions of companies and agencies worldwide. An example is the many bar code scanners you see at checkout points within retailers.

A bar code scanner is used to scan a bar code symbol and provide an electrical output to a computer that corresponds to the bars and spaces on the bar code. The decoder in the bar code scanner recognises the various bars and spaces of the bar code and converts them into recognizable characters.

The scanned information is then transmitted to a computer and appears in a traditional data format that we readily understand.

Bar Code Printer

AM Labels offer bar code printers that allow customers to print their own bar codes and printed labels. The bar code printer is an efficient means of printing bar codes, text and graphics, on a wide variety of self adhesive materials (e.g. a printed label) and non-self adhesive materials (e.g. receipt paper and tags).

The bar code printer is used across industry and public service sectors and is available for a variety of uses. Ranging from a low cost desk top bar code printer, suitable for small volume printing, to a high volume industrial bar code printer suitable for more demanding environments.

A direct thermal bar code printer uses heat sensitive label material; a typical application for a direct thermal bar code printer is shipping labels. A thermal transfer bar code printer uses an ink ribbon for a permanent printed label the grade of ribbon determines the durability of the printed label.

The bar code printer has the benefit of bar code fonts programmed into the printer firmware, so you do not need additional bar code software.

There is a wide range of bar code printers available and your choice will depend on the volume of printed labels you wish to print, the space you have available and the environment.
