Outstanding Print Quality. The OC2’s reliable print
mechanism offers outstanding print clarity, allowing the
printing of graphics, bar codes and logos. The OC2’s full
two- year warranty, even on the printhead*,offers peace
of mind with our promise to stand behind every product

Wireless Printing. When wireless is a necessity, count on
O’Neil to offer the most reliable solution. Our integrated
802.11b/g module connects the OC2 to your wireless
network. Our Bluetooth®module offers the convenience
of a wireless personal area network, eliminating the need
for mobile workers to return to their vehicle to print
receipts or tickets. O’Neil was the first portable printer
manufacturer to incorporate the Bluetooth protocol in
Flash memory, eliminating the need for costly software
and hardware upgrades whenever the wireless
specification changes.
Power to Spare. The OC2’s Lithium-Ion batteries offer
maximum power capacity for a full 10+ hour shift, even
under the toughest conditions. It can print as many as
1,087 – 6” receipts, on a single battery charge. Its
automatic “sleep” mode saves power and the fast 3.5/4.5-
hour recharging time, along with optional vehicle charger,
provides an ideal solution for long and intense printing
applications.
Flash Memory.As business changes, so might your
printer needs. We pioneered the use of Flash memory
many years ago allowing you to change fonts and
functions simply by connecting the printer to a computer.
There is no need to return the printer for an upgrade.
We Speak Your Language. Any Language. O’Neil has
eliminated the font and character limitations found in
other printers. In cooperation with Bitstream®fonts, any
international character set can be added to the OC2 with
aone-time minimal setup fee.
“By upgrading the
hand-held computers
and printers we use for
billing, we’ve taken
another step in our effort
to lighten the load on
our delivery team to
make it more efficient
and better able to serve
our 20,000 customers.
