Cloud-enabled 80mm direct thermal receipt printer with 203 dpi resolution, up to 260mm/s printing, Ethernet and USB connectivity, integrated ARM-Linux platform, and optional Wi-Fi and 4G connectivity.

The HPRT TP808-i is an 80mm-class thermal cloud receipt printer and mPOS printing platform designed for applications that require more than conventional locally connected POS printing.

Unlike the standard TP808, the TP808-i incorporates an ARM-Linux platform and web-server functionality intended to support cloud and web-based POS printing workflows. HPRT describes the model as capable of connecting to multiple devices and cloud servers and supporting printing from web-based applications through the HiPOS SDK.

The printer uses direct thermal technology, provides 203 dpi resolution, prints at speeds up to 260mm/s, and supports both 58mm and 80mm thermal receipt paper.

Standard interfaces include Ethernet, USB Type-B, three USB Host ports, a cash-drawer interface and a micro-SIM slot, while Wi-Fi and 4G are listed as optional connectivity options.

The TP808-i is therefore better treated as a distinct product from the standard TP808 rather than as a duplicate page.

What Is the HPRT TP808-i?

The HPRT TP808-i is a cloud-capable thermal receipt printer intended for compatible web, mobile and cloud POS environments.

A conventional receipt printer commonly receives a print job directly from a local POS computer.

A cloud-oriented architecture can be different.

A simplified TP808-i workflow may look like:

POS / Ordering Application
↓
Web or Cloud Service
↓
Network Connection
↓
HPRT TP808-i
↓
Thermal Receipt / Order Ticket

The exact workflow depends on the application, server, network, APIs or SDK, and software integration.

Cloud printing should therefore be verified with the intended software platform before deployment.

TP808-i vs Standard TP808

The TP808 and TP808-i should not be treated as the same printer configuration.

HPRT TP808

The standard TP808 is primarily a conventional POS receipt printer.

It provides standard:

• USB Type-B
• Serial
• Ethernet

with optional:

• Bluetooth
• Wi-Fi

HPRT TP808-i

The TP808-i is designed around a more specialized cloud / mPOS architecture.

It adds functionality including:

• Integrated ARM-Linux platform
• Embedded web-server functionality
• HiPOS web-printing architecture
• Ethernet
• USB Type-B
• Three USB Host interfaces
• Cash-drawer interface
• micro-SIM slot
• Optional Wi-Fi
• Optional 4G

HPRT specifically categorizes the TP808-i as a cloud receipt printer / mPOS product.

For NEOTECH®, this creates legitimate separate search intent and justifies maintaining a dedicated TP808-i product page.

Cloud POS Printing

The defining feature of the TP808-i is its cloud-oriented architecture.

HPRT states that the printer provides an integrated web server for compatible web applications and can connect with multiple devices and cloud servers.

This architecture may be relevant for applications such as:

• Cloud-based POS
• Web-based ordering
• mPOS
• Remote order printing
• Restaurant ordering systems
• Online order workflows
• Distributed receipt printing
• Compatible web applications

Cloud functionality does not mean the TP808-i will automatically work with every cloud POS or online ordering platform.

Software integration must be confirmed.

HiPOS SDK

HPRT identifies HiPOS SDK as part of the TP808-i's web-printing architecture.

The manufacturer states that compatible web-based applications can print using HiPOS SDK across environments including Windows, iOS and Android.

Before selecting the printer for a software project, verify:

• Application architecture
• HiPOS SDK compatibility
• Operating environment
• Network architecture
• Cloud-server requirements
• Required APIs
• Printer firmware
• Developer requirements

ARM-Linux Platform

The TP808-i incorporates an ARM-Linux platform.

HPRT describes this architecture as supporting peripheral-hub functionality.

This distinguishes the TP808-i from a basic USB receipt printer because compatible peripherals may be integrated into the broader POS workflow through the printer's available interfaces.

The exact peripheral and software compatibility should be verified before deployment.

203 DPI Resolution

Print Resolution: 203 dpi

203 dpi is commonly used for POS receipt and transaction printing.

It can support compatible printing of:

• Receipt text
• Order information
• Transaction details
• Barcodes
• QR codes
• Logos
• Graphics

Final output depends on software, paper quality, printer settings and receipt design.

Up to 260mm/s Printing

Maximum Rated Print Speed: Up to 260mm/s

The actual printing speed can vary according to:

• Receipt design
• Text content
• Graphics
• Barcodes
• Network communication
• Software
• Print density
• Paper
• Printer settings

HPRT's current materials identify the TP808-i as a 260mm/s-class cloud receipt printer.

58mm and 80mm Paper Support

The TP808-i supports:

Paper Width: 58mm / 80mm

Maximum Print Width: 80mm

Maximum Roll Diameter: 83mm

Paper Thickness: Approximately 50–130μm

This allows the printer to support common narrow and standard-width thermal receipt applications.

Direct Thermal Printing

The TP808-i uses direct thermal printing.

Heat from the thermal printhead reacts with compatible thermal receipt paper to create the printed image.

The printer therefore does not normally require:

• Ink cartridges
• Toner cartridges
• Thermal-transfer ribbon

Compatible thermal receipt paper is the principal printing consumable.

Standard Ethernet

Ethernet is included as a standard interface.

A wired network connection can be appropriate for cloud-oriented environments where stable LAN connectivity is preferred.

Network deployment should consider:

• IP configuration
• Router/firewall configuration
• Internet access where required
• Server accessibility
• Network security
• POS architecture
• Application requirements

USB Type-B

The TP808-i includes a USB Type-B interface.

USB can provide connectivity for compatible local host applications or configuration requirements depending on the software environment.

Three USB Host Ports

The TP808-i provides:

3 × USB Host

These interfaces can support the printer's peripheral-hub architecture for compatible devices.

Peripheral compatibility should be confirmed individually.

A USB Host port should not be interpreted as guaranteeing support for every USB peripheral.

Cash Drawer Interface

The printer provides a dedicated cash-drawer interface.

This can allow a compatible POS cash drawer to form part of the receipt-printing workflow.

Before connecting a drawer, verify:

• Drawer interface
• Pin configuration
• Voltage requirements
• POS software
• Printer configuration

Do not connect an unverified cash drawer solely because the connector physically fits.

micro-SIM Slot

The TP808-i includes a micro-SIM slot as part of its communication architecture.

Use of mobile connectivity depends on:

• Exact printer configuration
• 4G module
• Compatible SIM
• Mobile operator
• Data service
• Regional network support
• Software configuration

The presence of the SIM slot alone should not be interpreted as confirmation that every TP808-i unit includes active 4G hardware.

Optional Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi is listed as an optional TP808-i interface.

Wireless connectivity can be useful where wired Ethernet is unavailable or inconvenient.

Before ordering a Wi-Fi version, confirm the exact supplied configuration.

Optional 4G

HPRT lists 4G as an optional interface for the TP808-i.

4G can be useful for compatible applications requiring mobile-network connectivity rather than relying exclusively on the site's wired network.

Network compatibility and SIM requirements should be checked before deployment.

Optional 2D Scanner

HPRT identifies a 2D scanner as an optional device for the TP808-i.

A scanner is not automatically included with the standard printer.

If barcode or QR-code scanning is required, verify the exact scanner, connection method and application compatibility.

ESC/POS and XML

The TP808-i supports:

ESC/POS

XML

These programming options provide integration possibilities for compatible POS and web-printing environments.

Programming-language support should not be interpreted as universal software compatibility.

Memory

RAM: 32MB

Flash Memory: 256MB

The TP808-i therefore has a different processing and memory architecture from the standard TP808.

This reflects its additional cloud and embedded-platform functionality.

Automatic Cutter

The TP808-i includes an automatic cutter supporting:

Partial Cut

Full Cut

HPRT specifies the cutter life at:

2 million cuts

Actual service life depends on paper, usage, maintenance and operating conditions.

Printhead Reliability

TPH Rated Life: 150km

This is a manufacturer-rated printhead reliability figure.

Actual printhead life depends on:

• Thermal paper quality
• Print density
• Cleaning
• Operating environment
• Contamination
• Usage pattern
• Maintenance

Sensors

HPRT identifies standard sensors including:

Paper-Out Detector

Head-Up Detector

Thermal Printhead Overheat Detection

Optional sensors include:

Black Mark Detector

Paper Near-End Sensor

The exact supplied sensor configuration should be confirmed before ordering.

A possible restaurant workflow is:

Customer / Ordering Channel
↓
Compatible Online Ordering Platform
↓
Cloud Server
↓
Internet / Network
↓
HPRT TP808-i
↓
Printed Order

Whether this architecture works depends entirely on the ordering platform and its integration with the printer.

Remote Printing Considerations

The term cloud printer should not be interpreted as meaning that any document can automatically be sent to the TP808-i from anywhere.

Remote printing requires a compatible architecture involving:

• Software
• Cloud service
• Network connectivity
• Printer integration
• Authentication
• APIs / SDK where applicable
• Security configuration

Customers should confirm the complete workflow before deployment.

Software Compatibility

HPRT provides TP808-i software resources including Windows drivers and SDK resources for platforms such as Windows, Linux and iOS, along with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth documentation.

However, driver or SDK availability does not guarantee compatibility with a specific POS platform.

Always verify the actual application.
