2 6822 Series 80-Column Printer User’s Manual
Learning About the Printer Models
The 6822 printer is used in the route accounting industry to produce
high-quality customer invoices, receipts, load reports, transfers, and
other documents. A unique “sleep” feature saves energy when the printer
is not printing, eliminating the need for an ON/OFF switch. Data input is
normally provided by hand-held or mobile computers.
The 6822 printer is available in the following models:
• Fixed Mount Printer
The fixed mount printer is mounted in motor vehicles or used in a
settlement room. The terminal holder may be mounted on the printer
or a remote dock can connect to the side of the printer. A deep paper
tray, which holds up to 200 3-ply forms (up to 5 cm or 2 in of paper)
is located under the printer mechanism.
• Portable Printer
The portable printer has a handle so that you can carry it. An optional
internal battery permits operation without the use of an external power
source. The terminal holder is an integral part of this printer. A shallow
paper tray, which holds up to 50 3-ply forms (up to 2.5 cm or 1.0 in of
paper) is located under the printer mechanism.
Note: The printer models are shown on page 8.
The discharge of electrostatic energy accumulated on the
human body, clothing, or other surfaces can damage or
destroy the printhead or electronic components used in this
printer. Avoid touching the electrical connectors while
unpacking or setting up your printer.
