The Epson TM-U220 roll-tape printer combines high-speed output with operational simplicity, making it a trusted solution for point-of-sale, ticketing, and industrial scale printing applications. Its nine-pin dot matrix printhead achieves print speeds from 4.7 to 6.0 lines per second, while the drop-in paper set and auto paper loading mechanism minimize downtime and user intervention. The printer automatically transmits changes in printer status, allowing host systems to monitor paper end, cover open, and other critical alerts without manual checks.
Built around the reliable MI88D mechanism, the TM-U220 supports serial communication via RS-232 (DB-25F connector) with selectable baud rates of 4800 or 9600. Optional Connect-It cartridges are available for parallel, USB, or 10 Base-T interfaces, offering flexibility for legacy and modern system architectures. The cassette-type purple ribbon delivers approximately 1.5 million characters of continuous printing, with black ink also available. Operating temperatures from 32 °F to 122 °F (0 °C to 50 °C) ensure dependable performance in diverse indoor environments. CE, UL, and CSA listings confirm compliance with safety and electromagnetic standards.
