Power requirements

The SureMark Printers do not contain a power supply. When the printer is operating
in RS-232 mode, an external power supply must be attached to connector J2 of the
interface card of the printer. This connector is located under the printer and is
accessible without removing the printer covers. (See Figure 5 on page 18 for
thermal/impact SureMark printers, and Figure 6 on page 19 for single-station
SureMark printers.) Connector J2 has the following pin functions:

When the SureMark is operating in RS-485 mode, power is supplied to the printer
from the IBM POS system. The system supplies 38V dc and 5V dc to the printer.
When the SureMark has the USB feature installed and is using the powered USB
cable with a SurePOS 700 Series system, 24V is supplied from the system unit.
When the SureMark has the USB feature installed and is using a 4-wire cable with
a Type B connector, an external power brick (+24V dc) must be used.
