The single-station SureMark printers, and also SureMark Models TI5 and TG5 printers that have been updated with the latest firmware, support the following in the thermal station:

v Proportional fonts (SBCS only) v Scalable fonts

v Color printing – black plus one accent on two-color thermal paper (thermal station only)

v Upside-down printing

Additional features of some SureMark models include:

v Support for USB interface (models TI5, TG5, and TM7) v Easy-to-load ribbon cartridge (Models TI5 and TG5)

v Epson emulation (models TF7 and TM7, SBCS only)

 

Description of Models

 

SureMark printers are available in the following models that can operate in either

 

single-byte character set (SBCS) mode or double-byte character set (DBCS) mode:

Models TI5 and TG5

Standard models that supports receipt and document printing. Model TG5 is

equivalent to Model TI5 but with iron gray covers to match the IBM 4840

system units.

 

Models TF7 and TM7

 

Smaller models that contain only a thermal customer receipt station.

 

Because there is no document insert station, these models do not support

 

document printing.

 

Models TF7 and TM7 have an audible alarm, a spill-resistant design, and

 

an optional wall mount.

 

For Food Service customers, the covers on Model TF7 match the IBM

 

SurePOS 500 Series systems. For Retail customers, the covers on Model

 

TM7 match the IBM 4694 systems if the RS-232/RS-485 interface is

 

ordered, and match the IBM SurePOS 700 Series systems if the USB

 

interface is ordered.

When any of these printers operates in DBCS mode, you can use one of the following character sets (characters must be downloaded to the printer from the Utility Diskette or using POSS for Windows):

vJapanese

vKorean

vTraditional Chinese

vSimplified Chinese
