NCR 7168 Printer
23446
The 7168 printer is a fast, quiet, relatively small and very reliable multiple-function printer
with front and back printing on the receipt paper capability. It prints receipts, validates and
prints checks, and prints on a variety of single- or multiple-part forms. There is no journal as it
is kept electronically by the host computer.
The industry-standard RS-232C communication interface allows the 7168 to be connected to
any host computer that uses RS-232C or USB communication interface.
The receipt station uses thermal printing technology. Therefore, there is no ribbon cassette to
change and paper loading is extremely simple. Printing on single- or multiple-part forms,
validating checks, and printing checks is also easy in the accommodating slip station.
Another feature is the Magnetic Ink Character Recognition (MICR) check reader with parsing,
which reads account numbers on checks for easy verification. An extended slip table is
available for handling large forms and is standard with the MICR option.
