The Epson TM-U220IIB is a impact dot matrix printer designed for printing receipts in POS environments. Its dot-matrix technology, serial connection and support for multiple paper widths make it a suitable solution for compatible professional checkout systems.
Unlike thermal printers, the TM-U220IIB uses impact dot matrix printing technology. It achieves a speed of 4.70 lines per second in a 40-column configuration at 16 characters per inch.
Its extended character set allows it to cater for various international operating environments, and the ePOS protocol is also supported.
The printer accepts three paper formats to suit the requirements of the point of sale. You can use rolls with a width of 76 mm, 69.5 mm or 57.5 mm, each with a maximum diameter of 83 mm.
This flexibility allows you to select a receipt format suited to the available space and the information your business needs to print.
This configuration features an RS-232 interface for connection to the POS system. It is therefore suitable for checkout terminals and professional equipment using a serial connection.
A dedicated interface for opening the cash drawer also allows the printer to be integrated into a complete point-of-sale system.
The built-in automatic cutter performs a partial cut on receipts to make them easier to retrieve after printing. Its stated service life is 800,000 cuts.
The model also features a end-of-roll sensor, which is useful for identifying when the consumable needs replacing.
The print head is designed to achieve a service life of 150 million characters. Epson also specifies an average print volume of 18 million lines and an average uptime of 180,000 hours.
The printer measures 160 x 248 x 139 mm and weighs 2.5 kg. It is powered by 24 V via a mains adapter.
The Epson TM-U220IIB is suitable for cash registers and POS systems using an RS-232 serial connection. Its dot-matrix technology, three roll widths and cash drawer interface make it easy to integrate into compatible professional set-ups requiring regular receipt printing.
