IBM TI4 Printer User Manual


 
Models TI1 and TI3
Standard models that support receipt and document printing. (Model TI1
can no longer be ordered.)
Models T12 and TI4
High-function models that feature improved check handling. Check handling
uses the magnetic character ink recognition (MICR) reader and check
flipper that are included in these models. (Model TI2 can no longer be
ordered.)
With one insertion of a check into a Model TI2, TI4, TI8, or TI9 printer, the
printer uses its MICR reader to read the magnetic-ink-character line on the
check, franks the check, and prints the face of the check. While the printer
is processing the check, the operator is free to attend to the customer’s
needs, which shortens the total transaction time.
Model TI8
In addition to the features of the Model TI4, these models have a document
scanner feature. Scanned documents can be stored and retrieved in TIFF,
JPEG, and BMP formats. The Model TI8 has increased flipper speed due to
a powered flipper. (Model TI8 can no longer be ordered.)
Model TI9
In addition to the features of the Model TI8, the TI9 is compliant with Check
21 legislation, which means that it enables single-insertion check handling
and scanning of both sides of the full length of the document.
Models TF6 and TM6
Smaller models that contain only a thermal customer receipt station.
Because there is no document insert station, these models do not support
document printing.
Models TF6 and TM6 have an audible alarm, a spill-resistant design, and
an optional wall mount.
For Food Service customers, Model TF6 covers match the IBM SurePOS
500 Series systems. For Retail customers, Model TM6 covers match the
IBM 4694 systems if the EIA-232/RS-485 interface is ordered, and the
covers match the IBM SurePOS 700 Series systems if the USB interface is
ordered.
Note: Model TG3 is functionally equivalent to TI3, TG4 is functionally equivalent to
TI4, and so on.
