1-4 NCR RealPOS 7199 Thermal Receipt Station Printer

Thermal Print Head

The 7199 Thermal Receipt Station Printer uses a thermal print head for printing receipts.
It is extremely fast and quiet. Because it uses heat to print directly on paper, there is no
cassette or ribbon to change, eliminating soiled fingers and paper dust.
The print head does not need to be regularly cleaned and no regularly scheduled
maintenance is required if the recommended paper is used. For more information, refer
to Ordering Thermal Receipt Paper on the facing page.
If you notice spotty or light print, the thermal head could be dirty. Wipe the head with
cotton swabs and rubbing alcohol. If spotty or light printing problems persist after the
thermal print head has been cleaned, the print head could be damaged beyond repair.
The print head is designed to have a long life span, but it can be replaced overtime if
needed. Only a trained service representative may replace the print head.
