USER’S MANUAL 

 
 

INTRODUCTION 

SYNERGY PF-550 is a compact thermal printer with fiscal memory, which prints cash receipts and daily reports 

on two separate paper rolls 58 mm wide. It is compatible to most European and World fiscal legislation systems. 

The functions of the device are controlled with the help of buttons, located on its frontal part as well as commands, 

sent via the serial interface. The couplings for the cable connections are conveniently located for fast access and easy 
manipulations. The printing devices have low noise emission levels and high printing speeds - 50 mm/sec. 

The printer has an automatic paper cutter. Optionally, it can support a display and a cash drawer. 

Contemporary commercial activities and the demands of acting fiscal legislation systems demand a comparatively 

good  knowledge  on  the  ways  to  operate  fiscal  devices  of  different  kinds  -  cash  registers,  electronic  scales,  different 
types  of  printing  devices.  It  is  for  this  reason,  that  the  careful  reading  of  this  manual  before  starting  work  with  the 
printer may save you lots of time and trouble later on. 
 

WORKING WITH THE FP-550 FISCAL PRINTER 

The over 50 different commands which the printer can execute may initially create the impression that learning to 

work with it is a difficult job. Most of these commands, however, are related to the starting initialization, diagnostics 
and  the  generating  of  reports  thus  decreasing  greatly  the  number  of  commands  directly  engaged  with  the  issuing  of 
receipts and other user’s operations. 

As an example may serve the commands, which must be sent to the printer to make it generate a fiscal and a non-

fiscal receipt. Only the order numbers of the commands will be presented and the data there related without getting into 
the  details  of  the  contents  of  the  special  symbols  which  guarantee  the  viability  of  the  data  and  ensure  the  correct 
communication between the printer and the personal computer. 

 

TAX CATEGORIES AND CALCULATION OF VAT 

The commands for sale are accepting as parameters the big letters 

А

Б

В

Г (ASCII codes 192, 193, 194, 195). 

Neto value is calculated by the formula: 

net_amount = ROUND(sale_amount

 /

 (1 + tax_rate)) 

Payed tax is calculated by the formula: 

tax_amount = sale_amount - net_amount 

 

Important: 
If the user of the fiscal printer is TAX payer (the  VAT number is not empty) then TAX categories А, Б and В 
are accepted, and Г is refused. 
If the user of the fiscal printer is not TAX payer (the VAT number is empty) then TAX category Г is accepted, 
and А, Б and В are refused.
