v
Memory allocated to store incoming commands and data is 16 KB for Models
TI3, TI4, TI8, TI9, TG3, TG4, TG8, and TG9, but only 4 KB for Models TI1 and
TI2.
v Models TI3, TI4, TI8, TI9, TG3, TG4, TG8, and TG9 operate at higher speeds
than Models TI1 and TI2.
v
Code page 858, which contains the euro character symbol, is resident in Models
TI3, TI4, TI8, TI9, TG3, and TG4. Code page 850, which contains all character
symbols from code page 858 excluding the euro character symbol, is resident in
Models TI1 and TI2.
v
The second byte of the device ID specifies what model of SureMark is being
used. The 4690 OS uses the printer model to determine the name of the
microcode update file:
– ADXPJPUF.DAT for Models TI1 and TI2
– ADXPJPFF.DAT for Models TI3, TI4, TG3, TG4, TM6, TF6
– ADXPJP2F.DAT for Models TI3, TI4, TG3, and TG4 with the 2 MB card option
– For microcode update information for Models TI8, TI9, TG8, and TG9, see the
IBM Retail Store Solutions Web site at http://www.ibm.com/solutions/retail/

Differences between Models TI3, TI4, TI8, TI9, TG3, TG4, TG8,
TG9, and Models TF6, TM6
Models TF6 and TM6 are single-station thermal printers. These models do not
include an impact station. Therefore they can not be used for any of the check
handling that thermal/impact SureMark Models TI3, TI4, TI8, TI9, TG3, TG4, TG8,
and TG9 support.
The single-station SureMark printers have a lower weight, lower cost, and smaller
footprint than the thermal/impact printers. The single-station SureMark printers are
designed to provide a cost-effective printer in environments that do not require
document printing and check processing.
The single-station SureMark printers are spill-resistant, which makes them a good
choice for food service customers. In the single-station printers, the logic card and
interface card are mounted vertically, which minimizes the possibility of damage
from spills. (In the thermal/impact printers, although the logic card is mounted
vertically, the interface card is mounted horizontally.) For particularly hazardous
locations, an optional spill cover is available for Models TF6 and TM6.
Models TI3, TI4, TI8, TI9, TG3, TG4, TG8, and TG9 have a trap-door design that
allows you to easily change to a new interface, for example when upgrading from
EIA-232 to USB. To change the interface on a single-station SureMark, you must
remove the bottom cover, then remove both the logic card and the interface card
(they are joined by a connector).
The single-station SureMark printers support a 90 mm diameter paper roll, instead
of the 80 mm paper roll that is used with the thermal/impact printers. The
single-station printers also support an external larger paper roll via RPQ. When the
external paper roll is used, the paper feeds into the printer through a slot in the
bottom cover of the printer.
A power switch is located inside the top cover of the single-station SureMark
printers. Power to the thermal/impact SureMark printers is controlled by the system
or by an external power supply.
