You can hook up the printer to PCs, Macs, and several handhelds via USB or infrared connections. This Pentax printer can operate on AC power, a battery, or DC power from a car cigarette lighter. The PocketJet 3 measures 10 inches wide by 2.25 inches deep and 1.25 inches thick and weighs about a pound-a fraction of the size and the heft of a portable inkjet alternative such as the Canon Pixma iP90. We find this petite PocketJet, about the size of an elongated stapler, easier to carry around than a portable but boxy inkjet printer.
The PocketJet 3 is pricey and prints only on special paper, but it's more convenient than a portable inkjet if you need to print black text in out-of-the-way places.
