1. Core Courier Shipping Labeling Scenarios

　　A battery-powered thermal printer is a critical mobility tool for logistics, engineered to print high-integrity shipping labels on-demand across courier workflows. Key scenarios now include high-temperature environment operation, cross-border logistics adaptation, and multi-device collaborative power supply leveraging the 120W GaN power supply’s low-heat control, 100-240V wide voltage, MacBook Pro compatibility, and 1A3C multi-port fast charging capability:

　　1.11 Multi-Terminal Simultaneous Charging for Field Operations

　　Typical Use Case: Concurrent power supply for 4 logistics devices—16-inch MacBook Pro (100W), thermal printer (24W), iPhone 15 (20W), and Android scanner (18W)—via the 1A3C port array. The 120W GaN supply dynamically allocates power to avoid overload, eliminating the need for 3+ separate chargers during cross-border parcel inspections.

　　Operational Logic: Equipped with 3 USB-C ports (C1/C2/C3) and 1 USB-A port, controlled by an intelligent power distribution chip. In single-port mode: any USB-C port delivers 100W PD3.0 (20V5A) for MacBook Pro, while the USB-A port outputs 60W QC3.0 (12V5A) for high-power scanners. In multi-port mode: when powering a MacBook Pro and a printer (C1+C2), the two USB-C ports each provide 60W; when all four ports are in use (C1+C2+C3+A), the power allocation is 45W (C1), 30W (C2), 20W (C3), and 15W (USB-A), totaling 110W for full-device coverage. A smart control system monitors real-time load and adjusts power allocation within 0.1s.

　　Key Advantage: Reduces equipment carry weight by 60% (replaces a 96W laptop charger, a 30W printer adapter, and a 20W phone charger); cuts multi-device charging time by 40% (e.g., iPhone 15 reaches 60% charge in 30 minutes); with a power density of 0.82W/cm³ and dimensions of 84×57×30.5mm, it fits in standard logistics backpacks.

　　2. Critical Technical Specifications for Shipping Use

　　Supplement specs for 120W GaN power supply’s 1A3C multi-port system:

　　Battery Performance: 2000–5000mAh lithium-ion battery (fast-charging via PD3.0/QC3.0); the 1A3C ports support unified fast charging protocols compliant with national fast charging standards.

　　120W GaN 1A3C Multi-Port Charging System:

　　Port Configuration & Power Allocation: For single-port operation, USB-C1 and USB-C2 each support a maximum of 100W (20V5A), USB-C3 supports up to 30W (10V3A), and USB-A supports up to 60W (12V5A). In dual-port mode (C1+C2), each USB-C port provides 60W (20V3A), while the USB-A port outputs 15W (5V3A). For tri-port operation (C1+C2+C3), USB-C1 delivers 45W (15V3A), USB-C2 provides 30W (10V3A), and both USB-C3 and USB-A each output 15W (5V3A). When all four ports are used (C1+C2+C3+A), the power distribution remains 45W (C1), 30W (C2), 20W (C3), and 15W (USB-A).

　　Protocol Compatibility: All USB-C ports support PD3.0 PPS (3.3-21V5A), Apple 2.4A, and QC3.0; the USB-A port additionally supports SCP/AFC/FCP for Android devices. The supply complies with USB-IF PD 3.1 certification and meets the requirement of charging a device to 60% in 30 minutes.

　　Thermal Management: A graphene heatsink combined with a partitioned PCB design maintains a case temperature below 72℃ under full load (4 ports in use) in a 40℃ ambient environment—28% cooler than 4-port silicon-based power supplies.

　　Printing Parameters: 40–100mm adjustable width; 203–300 DPI resolution; stable 24V output to the printer via USB-C2 (even when USB-C1 powers a MacBook Pro at 100W) prevents blurry labels.

　　3. Step-by-Step Shipping Labeling & Operational Protocol

　　Add steps for verifying 1A3C multi-port functionality:

　　3.1 Pre-Operation Preparation (Including Multi-Port Check)

　　1A3C Protocol Validation: Use a USB PD tester to verify each port:

　　USB-C1/C2: Detect PD3.0 PPS (3.3-21V5A) and Apple 2.4A; ensure output is at least 90W when connected to a 16-inch MacBook Pro.

　　USB-C3: Confirm support for QC3.0 (9V3A) and PD3.0 (15V2A); ensure it can charge a tablet at 30W.

　　USB-A: Validate support for QC3.0 (12V5A) and SCP (5V4.5A); ensure it can charge a Huawei smartphone at 22.5W.

　　4-Port Load Test: Simultaneously connect a MacBook Pro (C1), a thermal printer (C2), a tablet (C3), and a scanner (USB-A). Run a 1-hour test: print 100 labels while syncing logistics management system (LMS) data on the MacBook Pro. The smart control system’s "Port Dashboard" must show total power ≤120W and voltage variation <±0.4V.

　　3.9 Multi-Port Safety Operation Rules

　　Port Priority Setting: Via the smart control system, set "Logistics Mode" to prioritize USB-C2 (printer) > USB-C1 (MacBook Pro) > USB-C3 (tablet) > USB-A (scanner). If total load exceeds 120W, the USB-A port (for the scanner) will automatically shut down first.

　　Cable Matching: Use 5A EPR-certified USB-C cables for USB-C1/C2 (to support 100W), 3A USB-C cables for USB-C3 (maximum 30W), and 5A QC-certified cables for USB-A (maximum 60W). Using mismatched cables can reduce charging speed by 50%.

　　Cross-Protocol Protection: Disable non-logistics-related protocols (e.g., MTK PE) via the smart control system to prevent charging failures for scanners (most use QC3.0/AFC).

　　5. Troubleshooting Common Shipping Issues

　　Add 1A3C multi-port-related issues:

　　Symptom 23: USB-C3 has no output when 4 ports are connected

　　Root Cause: Dynamic power allocation limits USB-C3 to 0W (total load >120W), or the QC chip for USB-C3 is faulty.

　　Solution: Disconnect the USB-A device (scanner) to free up 15W of power; test USB-C3 with a USB PD tester—replace the QC chip if no protocol is detected.

　　Symptom 24: USB-A charges phones slowly (<10W)

　　Root Cause: The cable lacks QC certification (limiting output to 5V2A), or there is a protocol conflict (e.g., SCP is disabled).

　　Solution: Use a QC3.0-certified cable; enable "Android Fast Charge" via the smart control system to activate SCP/AFC.

　　Symptom 25: The smart control system shows "Port Overload" but total load <120W

　　Root Cause: Individual port overcurrent (e.g., USB-C1 connected to a 140W laptop), or a firmware bug in the power distribution chip.

　　Solution: Disconnect ultra-high-power devices; update the power distribution chip’s firmware via the smart control system’s "Chip Manager" function.

　　6. Shipping Printer Maintenance & Storage

　　Add 1A3C multi-port maintenance:

　　Port Calibration: Quarterly, use a USB PD tester to check each port’s protocol handshake success rate (>98%) and voltage accuracy (±0.2V). Focus on USB-C2 (for the printer) and USB-A (for daily phone use).

　　Contact Cleaning: Monthly, wipe the ports with isopropyl alcohol swabs to remove dust and oil—contamination causes 30% of port failures in logistics warehouses.

　　Protocol Sync: Before regional deployment, update the smart control system with local device protocols (e.g., Samsung AFC for the EU, Xiaomi PD for the Asia-Pacific region) to ensure 1A3C port compatibility.
