Communication Cables Pin-Out
Your printer uses industry standard connections for Serial, USB and Cash Drawer
functions and is therefore compatible with standard printers and hosts on the market.
Please note that due to the power requirements of thermal printers, the unit will not
function with the USB cable alone. The power cord must be connected to the printer.
Several connector options are available depending on the interface card installed on the
back of the printer. For all cases, the Cash Drawer and USB are installed. The Cash
Drawer drivers can supply up to 2 Amp when not printing.
The tables below detail the connection pin-out for the RS-232 interface and cash drawer
on the printer side.
