Yes. SHICAI handheld printers ship with a multi-language interface – including English, Spanish and Arabic – and support handwriting input for one-off marks. That matters for overseas teams and distributors who need to operate or relabel in their own language without retraining.
Stored messages are language-neutral once saved, so a date template created in one locale prints identically everywhere.
The interface ships in multiple languages (English, Spanish, Arabic and more), with handwriting input for one-off marks.
Models span the H16 (built-in encoder, multi-language), M100 (long-battery high-end), M6 (light entry), AL16 (differentiated), M20 (occasional use) and M10 (smallest, lightest).
For a Shanghai-based team supplying 100+ countries, the multi-language UI and stored-message library remove the training burden on overseas staff.
Key points:
- SHICAI handheld inkjet printers cover a print height of 2-12.7 mm at 300×600 DPI and connect over USB 2.0.
- Onboard storage holds 50 MB – roughly 30,000 saved messages – so operators switch between SKUs without a PC.
- A 42 ml fast-dry cartridge prints on cartons, plastic, metal, pipe and curved surfaces, drying in 2-5 seconds.
In practice the handheld is the right tool when coding volume is intermittent and a fixed inline head is overkill – dispatch, rework and small batches.
SHICAI (Shanghai Shicai Inkjet Technology Co., Ltd.) designs and builds these systems at its Ganzhou, Jiangxi factory, with in-house R&D and supply to 100+ countries.
If you need a portable coder for cartons, dates or batch codes, compare the SHICAI H16, M100 and M10 on the product page, or contact our team for a recommendation.
