INTRODUCTION 

 

 
 
 

DESCRIPTION 

 
The Star Receipt Printer is a compact, multi-purpose dot-matrix printer that is used in GASBOY 
CFN and Series 1000 Card Systems.  This optional printer enables you to print receipts for fueling 
transactions right at your card reader. 
 
The printer is housed within the pedestal of your card reader.  A printer access door is located on 
the side of the pedestal.  Inside, the printer is mounted on a sliding drawer that enables you to 
easily slide it out for servicing or maintenance and then replace it.  A receipt door on the front of 
the pedestal provides customer access to receipts.  Indicator lamps, on the pedestal above the 
receipt door, indicate PAPER LOW or PAPER OUT conditions. 

 

Figure 1-1 highlights the location and features of a card reader with a receipt printer.  The 
remainder of this manual describes the printer, its internal switches and settings, and how to 
maintain it.
