A776 Two-Color Thermal/Impact Hybrid Printer: User Guide A776 UG00001 B 10/06
The TPG A776 is a small, efficient point of sale printer for
retailers. It features fast black and white or ColorPOS
®
receipt printing. The A776 also features an impact
printer that prints checks or multi-part forms that you
insert manually. These forms can have up to four parts
and can be in a variety of sizes. Built-in Magnetic Ink
Character Recognition (MICR) check validation is an
optional feature of the A776 printer.
The A776 fits easily in spaces where no other hybrid
printer can and connects to most host computers via
the Dual 9-pin /USB interface or 25-pin RS-232 interface.
Powered USB and Ethernet interface are also available.
The printer’s standard command set allows it to work
with software written for TPG or other compliant
printers. A variety of sensors enable the printer to
communicate its status to the host computer. The printer
also has an electronic journal feature.
The easy-to-use thermal printer requires no ribbon or
ink cartridge. Load new paper by simply opening the
clamshell
TM
receipt cover and dropping in a new roll.
This section describes the printer’s features and options
in more detail.
