Short description of the documentprinter
The documentprinter has a document printing point with which single documents,
multiple documents(sets of forms) and passbooks can be processed. The printer
canalso be equipped with a magnetic stripe reader (MSR), a magnetic ink card rea-
der (MICR) or a single sheet feeder as an option.

Document printing point

The term ’document’ includes all single documents, for example, cheques, un-
printed DIN A4 papers (blank documents), forms of various sizes or passbooks.
All documents are fed by the document printer over a flat bed according to the
principle of single- sheet processing, are processed and ejected again. The pro-
cessing of a document is begun when each single document is put forward.
The form feed of the documents can be freely selected .T he feeding of the docu-
ments is supportedb y an automaticalignment. The print characters can be positio-
ned relative toall the document edges.
The following provides a comprehensive list of the characteristics of the docu-
ment printing point:
– 90 printing points with 10 characters/ inch
– Automatic document alignment
– Automatic print head adjustment
– Automatic document edge detection
– Print head with 24 needles
– 2 print modes (LQ, Draft)
– ’24- bit’ and ’8- bit’ graphics
– The print rate is dependent on the horizontal density of the character font
selected in eachcase. There are two different print rates for the print modes
LQ (Letter Quality) and Draft. The document printer can also process type
fonts, print qualities or multi- phase characters, which vary from the pixel
data structure of the standard character sets. More than two print rates are
possible due to the respective character font.
