The TM-U220 — The New Industry-wide
Standard in Printing
The TM-U220 is the easy to use yet
powerful successor to the TM-U210, whose
ease-of-use and reliability have made it an
overwhelming favorite around the world.
Outstanding Compatibility
The TM-U220 printers are designed to be
compatible with existing systems built around
a TM-U210. These systems can be upgraded
simply by dropping in a TM-U220. Moreover,
since the external dimensions are nearly
identical, there is no need to change the
installation environment. The transition to the
new model is as smooth as can be.
Easy Operation
Free busy operators from troublesome roll paper and ribbon cassette
replacement. The TM-U220 makes these chores a snap. Simply pop the
cover, drop in the paper or ribbon, shut the cover. You're back in business.
Higher Printing Speed
A full 30% faster than its predecessors, the TM-U220 printers provide high-
efficiency throughput. Retailers can hand receipts to customers faster.
Restaurant kitchens can receive orders quickly.
Superior Versatility
The versatile TM-U220 suits a wide range of needs and applications. Each
type is powerful, yet compact enough to fit in confined spaces. The wall-
mountable Type B and Type D free up valuable counter space in kitchens
and other tight locations. Moreover, both Type B and Type D handle your
choice of 58, 69, or 76 mm width roll paper.
