This is much more stable than wireless connections, such as Bluetooth, and does not require pairing of devices or the complicated setup of communication settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>By the way, high speed \u2026<\/strong><br>\u2026 Citizen also offers your customers printers with high printing speeds that already have a Lightning interface. These currently include the CT-E651 with a maximum print speed of up to 300&nbsp;mm\/sec. and the \u00adCT-S751 with a speed of up to 350&nbsp;mm\/sec. Both printers are ideal for the fast-changing challenges of the retail and hospitality industries and fit into almost any POS, thanks to their space-saving design. The \u00adCT-S751 is even suitable for under-counter mounting.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>One advantage rarely comes alone!<\/strong><br>The Lightning interface is not the only thing that makes your customers\u2019 everyday work easier: it also comes along with a Lightning cable connector and three USB host slots. This allows \u00adCitizen POS printers to be easily expanded with various peripherals such as scanners, price displays, payment terminals, cash drawers and much more, requiring only a single cable for data transfer and power supply. Additionally, to further maximise the benefits of USB host ports, Citizen also offers your customers a range of SDKs. These simplify integration with existing POS applications and control of the various USB ports.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p><strong>Recommend the Citizen Lightning inter\u00adface in combination with the fast Citizen CT-E651 and CT-S751 printers to your customers for lightning-fast data transfers.
