Canon will release the easy-to-carry mobile printer “TR163” as a new addition to its “TR Series” of business inkjet printers in mid-March 2025.
The new product is a mobile printer that can print documents you need on the go, right there and then. It can print documents required at various work sites, such as quotations and proposal materials for sales activities, reports for maintenance services, and prescriptions and medical certificates for home visits, right there and then without having to go to the office, improving work efficiency. In addition, it has improved Wi-Fi connectivity and security performance from previous models, improving convenience and safety when on the go. It also takes the environment into consideration, such as by not using polystyrene foam as cushioning material for packaging.
High portability and space saving allows for versatile use according to the operating environment
The printer is small and lightweight, measuring approximately 322 (width) x 185 (depth) x 66 (height) mm and weighing approximately 2.1 kg. It can be carried around when going out or on business trips, and can also be used in limited spaces such as conference rooms and reception counters. In addition, by attaching an external battery (sold separately), you can print in environments where it is difficult to secure a power source, such as outdoor work sites. The battery can be checked by itself, and it can be charged via USB cable while connected to the printer, preventing sudden power outages. In addition, it is equipped with a “standard document print” function that allows you to print data stored in the printer in advance directly from the printer itself without going through a smartphone or PC, allowing you to quickly print standard documents such as forms.
Improved connectivity for comfortable use on the go and security performance to protect important information
With Wi-Fi Direct connection, which directly connects to a wireless LAN-compatible device, you can now use the 5GHz frequency band, which is less susceptible to radio interference, and you can enjoy a more stable wireless connection even when you are away from home and there are no Wi-Fi access points. In addition, it supports the latest security standards to prevent information leaks and can automatically update firmware, making it suitable for use in business situations where customers’ personal information and confidential documents are handled.
Achieve high-quality prints on the go that are comparable to those printed in the office or at home
The printer supports a five-color hybrid ink system that uses pigment black ink, which makes text clear and easy to read, and dye color ink, which makes photos vivid, achieving high-quality printing of both documents and photos. Borderless photo printing is available up to A4 size, making it suitable for printing photos to be attached to reports, etc.
