About Printer Mechanisms
Printer mechanisms are used in kiosks, lottery machines, ticketing machines, and cash registers. They include thermal, laser and dot matrix printing technology. Printer mechanisms can be customized to handle different paper widths and paper ply. Products that are suitable for laser printing may provide additional features.
Printer mechanisms for cash registers, kiosks, automated teller machines, lottery machines, and other ticketing machines are typically small, compact units that take a spool or roll of paper that is printed per transaction, fed through an output slot, and automatically cut. These printer mechanisms are used for all kinds of receipts and records of self-service or automated transactions. A cash register printer may use an ink jet, a dot matrix, or a thermal printer mechanism for producing receipts and coupons. A dot matrix printer uses a series of pins striking an ink ribbon to produce letters and images. An inkjet printer transfers small, precisely placed droplets of ink on the page. Thermal printer mechanisms use heat to transfer an impression on the paper. Thermal printers are high-speed devices and can also print logos or coupons in color. A lottery machine or other ticketing machine typically uses a thermal printer mechanism.
