Brother International Australia collaborated with app developers Mobeera to create a new portable printing app.
The portable thermal printer is designed “for the likes of sales/service, logistics, public safety and emergency services and officials”, Stationery News reported.
It implements Mobeera’s PDF MAX 4 app, a desktop-class PDF app for reading, making notes on or signing PDF documents on iPhone/iPad, to enable direct printing from an iPad to Brother’s PocketJet PJ-673. The PDF Max 4 allows highlighting and handwriting within documents, as well as insertion of text, watermarking and copying/pasting of PDFs.
Luke Howard, Commercial Market Development Channel Manager at Brother International Australia, said: “The partnership of the PJ-673 and PDF MAX 4 enables a whole new era of mobile productivity for Australian businesses. Brother and Mobeera have collaboratively solved a key issue many mobile workers face by delivering the capability to print documents from their iPad while in the field.” “Previously, printing directly from an iPad while out in-the-field has been a difficult, somewhat complex process making it challenging for any company to provide a fully enhanced and productive mobile set up to Australian businesses.”
He continued: “By combining the standalone features of the PJ-673 and the connectivity capabilities provided by the PDF MAX 4 app, we’re giving mobile workers the flexibility they need to achieve higher productivity levels and improved customer satisfaction rates than ever before.”
