The A760 ColorPOS
two-color printer is an extremely
®
fast, quiet, and reliable point-of-sale (POS) printer. It
consists of two specialized printers in one compact
package: a two-color thermal printer on top that prints
receipts, and an impact slip printer in front to print on
forms and checks that you insert. The thermal printer is
optimized for ease-of-use in busy environments. There
is no ribbon or ink cartridge to change, and you load the
paper by simply dropping in a new roll. The impact printer
provides the power and flexibility necessary to print on
checks or multi-part forms up to five plies, in a wide
variety of sizes and orientations.
The A760 easily fits in anywhere. It connects to any host
computer that uses the standard 9-pin or 25-pin RS-232C
or USB (Universal Serial Bus) interface. An IEEE 1284
parallel and an Ethernet interface are also available.
This printer is compatible with CognitiveTPG's LogoEZ
Receiptware marketing software. See
information on obtaining and using these options. (ColorPOS

The printer's standard command set allows it to work with
software written for CognitiveTPG, or other compliant
printers. A variety of sensors enable the printer to
communicate its status, and the printer's journal is kept
electronically by the host computer.
The Magnetic Ink Character Recognition (MICR) option
enables the printer to read the special codes printed on
checks and send this information to the host computer
to verify the check. This section describes the printer's
features and options in more detail.
