New Addition to Brother RuggedJet Mobile Printer Series Features Significant Advancements in Connectivity, Durability and Speed

Brother Mobile Solutions, Inc. (BMS) a wholly-owned subsidiary of Brother International Corporation and award winning provider of mobile, desktop and industrial printing, labeling and safety signage solutions, today introduces two new high-performance additions to its popular lineup of RuggedJet mobile label and receipt printers. The new RJ-3200 models, including three-inch RJ-3230BL and RJ-3250WBL thermal printers, build on the performance and durability of the popular RuggedJet series, adding new connectivity and usability features for even faster, more reliable on-the-go printing with less down time.

Technology built around your business

As the next generation to the popular Brother RuggedJet 4200 series, the RJ-3200 was developed around the demands of an increasingly fast-paced working environment, with significant advancements made to both hardware and software. A new, state-of-the-art microprocessor enables users to quickly connect ? and stay connected - to print on the go using a variety of connectivity options, including Bluetooth®, WiFi® and AirPrint®^*. The longer-lasting smart Li-Ion battery is designed to last a full workday and comes equipped with multiple charging options like simultaneous firmware updates, which allow users to recharge batteries and update the printer overnight, minimizing downtime during work hours. Molded rubber housing and extra internal protection add to the printer's enhanced durability, which includes six-foot drop protection and 1m tumble testing*.

"Customers have come to expect more, and down-time is no longer an option for a business or its technology solutions," said David Crist, President of Brother Mobile Solutions. "Retailers, for instance, have to adapt more quickly to pricing and inventory changes, or a lot more variation in where and how customer transactions are handled. The new RuggedJet 3200 is a connectivity powerhouse that allows users to quickly connect and stay connected. At the same time, the printers are durable, simple, and light enough to keep up with even the busiest associates on the floor, in the stock room and anywhere else they may need it."

Enhanced Performance and Reliability

Ravi Panjwani, Vice President at Brother Mobile Solutions, notes: "We were already starting off with some of the industry's leading technology in the RuggedJet series, but to stay at the forefront of users' needs, we continuously innovate, reimagine and iterate. With the RuggedJet 3200 series, we've kept many foundational features that our customers have come to rely on, but we believe we've incorporated a high-value range of technology enhancements at just the right time."

• Connectivity: Quick NFC pairing, iOS® and AirPrint compatibility**, Bluetooth 5.0 and 5GHz Wi-Fi connectivity, as well as options for wired connections.
