Appendix A – Compatible Printers

T5 Series Fuel Management Systems – Hewlett Packard Compatible Printers

T5 series consoles have a standard Type-A USB socket on the bottom of the console. The console uses Printer Control 

Language (PCL) versions 3 through 5 protocols developed by Hewlett Packard (HP) to print to external printers.  

PCL 6 is NOT compatible with the T5 series consoles. However, many printers with PCL 6 can also support PCL 5.  

It is also important to note that PCL 3 GUI is a subset of PCL 3 and is NOT compatible with the T5 series consoles.  

Although many HP printers t the criteria, below listed are two printers which FFS has researched and conrmed that 

meet the compatibility criteria. 

•  HP Deskjet 6940
