1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION

This set-up guide describes how to set up and operate the high-speed, thermal, point-of-sale (POS) printer

manufactured by Axiohm SAS. The printer has many features, which give advantages to retailers, and is

versatile enough to be used in other applications such as for printing out tickets and coupons.

 Axiohm’s unique and patented paper-loading mechanism makes this printer the easiest-to-

use POS printer on the market. The fixed-head thermal printer engine gives a very high

quality print.

 An untrained operator can change the roll of paper quickly and reliably, minimizing

downtimes and avoiding paper jams. There are no messy ribbons to change, so good print

quality can be ‘designed-in’ without operator skills or regular maintenance.

 The printer uses thick-film technology to achieve the longest-life cutter with the optional

patented semi-rotating ceramic cutter.

 As part of the total ‘easy-to-use’ philosophy, the printer uses a super-set of industry-

standard software to allow for easy installation. The existing software needs no

modification and is ready to use.

 The APOS printer will accurately print many barcodes, it allows custom characters to be

downloaded and it can execute macro functions.

Interfaces offered: RS232 & USB for greatest compatibility
