The MW-140BT utilizes an automatic feed mechanism to print from one of several available print cassettes, which include thermaPlus M paper, carbon copy, labels, or cut labels (two sizes). The direct thermal printing technology prints at a 300 x 300 resolution with print speeds of up to 15 seconds per page.

The MW-140BT has a bluetooth range of up to 30 feet, while an indicator light lets you know the printer's status.

The built-in rechargeable lithium ion battery comes with an AC adapter for charging purposes. Up to 100 pages can be printed continuously with a fully charged battery, while an auto power-off feature helps conserve battery life by shutting down after 5 minutes of inactivity.

2.0 out of 5 stars Way too much money for what it does., July 12, 2006

Also no graphics printing, but again, that's a Palm OS problem. Other than that, it's a pretty amazing little device, but not worth half of what it costs.
