Since many mobile\tablet operating systems do not natively support printing, Brother provide Software Development Kits (SDKs) to help developers easily add printing support into their apps:
Template printing is an easy way to add printing support to a custom application. Developers simply design a layout in our free P-touch Editor software and transfer it to the mobile printer. In the custom application simple commands are used to add information to the layout and then print it.
ESC/P allows developers the power to create print data using simple commands that control the position and layout. ESC/P requires more coding than Template printing but it means you do not have to configure a printer first before deploying it.
Mobile Scanning solutions are becoming more and more prevalent in the modern workforce. Our SDKs help to create custom scanning solutions, perfect for different vertical markets.
