External Hub Capability

The Ultra-C feature also supports charging while transferring data, making it a versatile and essential component of the latest models in the mC-Print3 thermal receipt printer series.


Say Goodbye to Unstable WLAN Signals

SteadyLAN, available on select mC-Print3 POS receipt printer models, delivers reliable wired Ethernet service to iOS, Android, and Windows devices through a networked printer.
