TUP500 Goes Compact!

TUP500DP Upright Open Frame Kiosk Printer

The new TUP500DP Series is a direct response to requests for a more compact TUP500 Series while still providing the reliability and flexibility of an open frame printer designed specifically for the kiosk printer market.

Capable of printing thermal receipts, tickets, barcodes and labels at the super fast speed of up to 220mm per second, the compact TUP500DP offers an easy ‘lift and tilt' mechanism for hassle free paper loading of paper stock from 42 - 82.5mm wide and media of up to 0.15mm thick.

The TUP500DP Series takes up to 25% less space than the original TUP592  with a footprint of just 150mm x 160mm while still being able to load a 10cm paper roll in diameter. It has an energy saving low peak current mode, a reduced top margin as well as a document capture/anti-litter mode for the internal storage of unwanted or forgotten receipts.

Interface options include Ethernet, USB, Parallel and Serial and drivers for Windows 2000 and XP are available, plus compatibility with OPOS, Java-POS, Linux, ESC/POS and Microsoft Windows with WHQL certification. An illuminated red/green paper output snout option is also available.
