Migrating from the A721 (7221) printer to the B780

The B780 printer is a two station hybrid thermal/impact printer with feature enhancements designed to provide the most desirable options to the customer. This section is provided for those customers who would like to migrate from their existing CognitiveTPG printers to the B780 printer, while maintaining as much continuity as possible in the new application. Several commands exist to support such a migration. The primary differences are described below:

A721 (7221) to B780:
A721: impact receipt	B780: thermal receipt
A721: no paper cutter (knife)	B780: paper cutter (knife)
A721: monochromatic printing	B780: two-color printing on receipt
A721: no audible tone	B780: audible tone

Set Printer ID Mode

Code (Hexadecimal) 1F 03 0Ch

This command sets the printer ID response to the printer ID command (1D 49 01)

n = 00h : Native printer ID

n = 01h : Emulated printer ID

The Native printer ID returned from the printer is 2C.

The Emulated printer ID returned from the printer is 0A.

Set B780 Printer Emulation

Code (Hexadecimal) 1F 03 25 02 n

This command sets the type of printer emulation

n	Emulation
00	Native
01	DH emulation

B780 Configuration Commands

Note: These B780 configuration commands apply only to A721 emulation of the slip and validations stations.
