All SureMark printers print the customer receipt using a thermal print head.
Thermal printing occurs by placing a heating element against a thermally sensitive
paper. By energizing the elements, dots are formed. Thermal printers print dot rows
horizontally across the page; 576 dots make up a single dot row across the paper.
Printing continues row by row until the entire character is formed.

Note: In order to conserve power, the SureMark SJ6 reduces its throughput when
printing high print densities, such as logo messages or full black lines.
Because these types of print messages are used on a limited basis, the
overall performance when printing a customer receipt is not noticeably
affected.
The reduced print speed is based on the number of print dots that are turned
on for a given print line, which is defined as dot utilization. Dot utilization is
typically low for normal character printing and up to 100 percent for full
black-line printing. The SureMark printer operates at 52 lps (maximum) at
low dot utilization, and at slower speeds as the dot utilization increases.
The SJ6 contains a 1 MB fiscal memory and 1 GB fiscal electronic journal (MFD).
The SureMark SJ6 has a single cash drawer connector. This connector can drive
either a single cash drawer or two cash drawers using a special cable. The
connector also provides a status line which indicates if one of the cash drawers is
open.
Drive voltage for each cash drawer solenoid is 24 V dc at a current of 1 ampere.
Connector pins are assigned as follows:
