1.5 PRINTER FEATURES
The FT190II is a printer which, in addition to having an innovative design, guarantees high performance and
is reliable and user-friendly.
For these reasons, it is the ideal solution for applications which require the immediate printing of data on a
ticket, whether they be of an industrial, professional or laboratory nature. Typical fi elds of application are:
weighing systems, receipts (not for tax purposes) as well as for security, controlling and diagnostics purpo-
ses.
It has a 200 dpi thermal print mechanism and uses 57.5mm paper rolls. It can print 24 or 40 characters per
line according to the selection made at the setup stage or through a software command.
The FT190II printer is so compact and lightweight that it can be installed extremely easily on any type of
equipment. It is supplied with two interfaces: an RS232 serial and Centronics parallel interface. To select one
or the other interface, some jumpers must be moved. The reception buffer is 1Kbytes. It can also be equip-
ped with a Real Time Clock.
