What’s the difference between each of the TM-U200
printers? |
|
The TM-U200 family includes three models allowing you to
select the version best suited to your requirements. The TM-U200A
and TM-U200B come with an auto-cutter so you
can choose between a full or partial cut, and an Auto Status Back (ASB)
function that automatically transmits changes in the printer status.
The TM-U200A includes a take-up journal device
and the TM-U200B and the TM-U200D have a wall-mounting
option that prints the receipt right side up for easy reading right out
of the printer. |

How do TM-U220 printers differ from TM-U200
printers? |
|
The TM-U200 is the predecessor to the TM-U220. The TM-U220 offers several improved features. It has a
faster print speed—in fact, up to 30% faster than the TM-U200. The
TM-U220 series also offers flexible paper widths, so you can choose between
58, 70, or 76mm for greater flexibility and potential cost-savings when
narrower receipt rolls are used. And, with the TM-U220 series, drop-in
paper loading is fully automatic compared to the semi-automatic paper
loading offered by TM-U200 printers. In addition, TM-U220 printers
feature non-volatile memory for fast logo printing. Lastly, the power
supply on the TM-U200 is 33volts, the TM-U220 has a 24v power supply. |

How do I upgrade from a TM-U200 to the TM-U220?
|
|
The TM-U220 series is designed for compatibility with
existing systems built around a TM-U200 printer. These systems can be
upgraded simply by dropping in a TM-U220 printer and AC adapter. (Note:
the TM-U200 and TM-U220 power supplies are not compatible). Since
the external dimensions are nearly identical, there is no need to change
the installation environment resulting in a smooth and easy transition.

| What do the DIP
switches on the bottom of my printer do?
|
|
Generally all switches should be in
the "off" position. The DIP switches control baud rate (transmission
rate), parity, and other functions. For a list of what each switch does,
please see our TM-U200 support page |
