Key Features

USB-C Power Delivery (MCP31CI / CBI)

The "CI" series features a high-specification USB-C port that supports Power Delivery. This allows the printer to charge your iPad or tablet at a high rate while simultaneously handling data transfer. This eliminates cable clutter and the need for multiple power sockets at the point of sale.

SteadyLAN™ Technology

SteadyLAN™ provides a stable, hardwired internet connection to your tablet via the printer's Ethernet port. By connecting your device to the printer via USB, the tablet "borrows" the printer’s wired network connection. This is an essential feature for areas with unreliable WiFi, ensuring your POS terminal remains online.

Industry-Leading 400mm/s Print Speed

The MCP31 series is amongst the fastest receipt printers available today. At 400mm per second, it delivers long receipts and kitchen orders almost instantly, significantly improving workflow and reducing customer wait times during peak periods.

Why Choose the mC-Print3?

• Compact & Splash-Proof: The front-exit design and IPX2-rated housing make it ideal for busy bar environments or kitchens where space is limited and spills may occur.

• Peripheral Hub: Includes USB-A host ports, allowing you to connect scanners, customer displays, or cash drawers directly to the printer for a centralised setup.

• CloudPRNT Next: Engineered for the modern cloud era, allowing the printer to pull orders directly from a web server without requiring a local PC or tablet driver.

• Paper De-Curl Function: Features a built-in tension bar that ensures receipts come out flat rather than curled, providing a more premium feel for the customer.
