The Epson TM-U220 is a rugged, high-speed dot matrix roll-tape printer designed for demanding environments such as kitchens, retail counters, and service desks. With its nine-pin printhead and MI88D mechanism, the TM-U220 ensures consistent, reliable performance—even in high-heat, high-volume areas where thermal printers may fail.
With drop-in paper loading, auto paper feed, and status reporting, this printer simplifies routine use and maintenance. It prints at up to 6.0 lines per second, handling long shifts with ease while ensuring every character is clear and legible.
The TM-U220 supports RS-232 serial (DB-25F) connectivity by default, but is also compatible with Epson Connect-It modules for USB, Parallel, or 10Base-T Ethernet configurations—allowing flexible integration into legacy and modern POS systems.
Its durable cassette ribbon offers up to 1.5 million characters of print life, reducing downtime and replacement frequency. With 40 characters per line, the TM-U220 balances speed, clarity, and durability, making it a go-to solution for print-heavy operations.
