  • Page 7: Chapter 1: About The 7193 Printer

    Chapter 1: About the 7193 Printer Chapter 1: About the 7193 Printer The 7193 thermal receipt printer is fast (at 1020 lines per minute), quiet, and very reliable. With thermal printing technology, there is no ribbon cassette to change, and paper loading is extremely simple.

  • Page 8: Features

    Communication cable Thermal Printhead The 7193 uses a thermal printhead for printing receipts, and it is extremely fast and quiet. Since it uses heat to print directly on paper, there is no cassette or ribbon to change, eliminating soiled fingers and paper dust.

  • Page 9: Ordering Thermal Paper

    The paper must not be attached at the core. Use paper with a colored stripe at the end to indicate that the paper is running low. To order thermal receipt paper, contact your sales representative or order from NCR at the following address or toll free number:...

  • Page 10: Cleaning The Printer

    Chapter 1: About the 7193 Printer 7193 Owner’s Guide Cleaning the Printer There is no customer maintenance required for the 7193. Cleaning the Cabinet Clean the cabinet as needed to remove dust and finger marks. Use any household cleaner made for plastics, but test it first on a small unseen area. If the receipt paper bucket is dirty, wipe it with a clean, damp cloth.

    Correcting Problems Operator-Correctable Conditions The following conditions can be corrected generally without calling for service. However, if problems persist, contact your NCR authorized service representative to arrange for a service call. Paper Out Replace the paper roll. Do not operate the printer or host computer if the printer runs out of paper.

  • Page 29: Contacting A Service Representative

    Make sure the power supply is plugged in and that the printer is on-line. Contact your NCR authorized service representative if this does not resolve the problem. Print is Light or Spotty The printhead may be dirty. Clean it with cotton swabs and rubbing alcohol.

    Interfaces In order for the printer to communicate with the host, a communication link must be set up. The 7193 supports the following communication interfaces: RS-232C Interface Parallel Interface Each of these has a protocol associated with it that the host must understand and adhere to.

  • Page 40: Rs-232C Interface

    DIP switches. See “RS-232C Switch Settings” later in this chapter for the switch settings. Print Speed and Timing The faster speed of new 7193 models requires the application to send data to the printer at least as fast as it is printed. The application must also allow receipt lines to be buffered ahead at the printer, so the printer will be able to print each line immediately after the preceding line, without stopping to wait for more data.
