The Toughest Printer We've Ever Built

After two years of engineering and field testing across three continents, we're proud to unveil the FC-P3 Field Edition — our most rugged, capable portable inkjet printer to date.

Whether you're on a construction site, inside a refrigerated warehouse, or managing logistics in the middle of a rainstorm, the FC-P3 is engineered to keep working when other printers would fail.

Key Features

IP54 Weatherproofing

The FC-P3 carries a full IP54 rating, making it resistant to dust ingress and water splashing from any direction. It's been tested in temperatures ranging from -20°C to 60°C, covering virtually any working environment.

1.5m Drop Protection

Accidental drops happen. The FC-P3's reinforced housing, rubberized corners, and internal shock-absorbing frame protect the device from drops of up to 1.5 metres onto concrete.

Dual-Band Wi-Fi 6 + Bluetooth 5.0

Connect to 2.4GHz or 5GHz networks simultaneously. With Wi-Fi 6 support, the FC-P3 maintains a stable connection even in dense wireless environments like busy warehouses and trade floors.

500-Page Battery Life

A high-capacity 5,200mAh battery delivers up to 500 pages per charge, with USB-C fast charging that tops up 80% in under 90 minutes.

Who Is It For?

The FC-P3 was designed with the following industries in mind:

  • Logistics & Warehousing — print shipping labels, manifests, and pick lists on the floor
  • Construction & Engineering — print site permits, safety notices, and inspection reports on-site
  • Utilities & Field Service — print work orders and compliance documents in any weather
  • Retail & Events — reliable printing in high-footfall, unpredictable environments

Availability

The FC-P3 Field Edition is available for order now. Contact our sales team for volume pricing and demo arrangements.

"We ran the FC-P3 through six months of beta testing in our Asia-Pacific distribution network. It's the first printer that our field teams haven't complained about." — Beta Tester, GlobalFreight Co.
