Overview

Benefit from improved cable management and, more importantly, being able to cost-effectively use the same UPS on both your POS station and printer at the same price as a traditional printer.

The printer is supplied with two port covers for use depending on configuration chosen.

USB is now the industry’s preferred communication link between a PC and a printer; so what is the next logical step – to combine the power supply and interface to produce Powered USB. As a result, Star has developed the world’s first dedicated entry-level Powered USB printers offering significant cost advantages over competitor products for all types of retailer.

As usual the POS market is in IT transition with the future looking at Powered USB terminal and peripherals. The key advantages include now being able to cost-effectively include UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) cover on both the PC and printer so that all transactions will be protected. The TSP100 PUSB is therefore perfect to replace any single station printer with a free-of-charge upgrade path when the retailer decides to follow the industry and use Powered USB POS Terminals at the same price as a traditional single station printer.

To replace a single station serial printer; set the printer up as indicated; change the interface cable to USB and create a Virtual Serial Port using the Star wizard included in the TSP100 Printer Properties Page under “TSP config”. Contact Star for the quick fix to replace a Parallel printer.
