TICKETS WITH 45° CUT CORNERS
Some applications are using tickets with cut corners without radius. These tickets are not
within the specifications for use in the TTPM3 printer series. The effect will be that the
ticket detection point moves about 1.3 mm, not only causing incorrect cut but also
erroneous placement of the magnetic code.
The coding starts 1.3 mm too early resulting in synchronization zeroes being lost in the
beginning of the ticket. On units configured for center track, the ticket should be readable
in both directions. If synchronization is lost, the tickets will be readable if inserted one
way, but not the other way around.
A solution to this problem is using HEX code for the magnetic message instead of ISO
code. Thus you can compensate for the lost synchronization zeroes by adding additional
