1.1) Main Features
1. High speed printing:
160 (for PRP-080II)~220 (for PRP-080I) mm/s maximum print speed.
Low-noise thermal printing.
High reliability due to a stable mechanism.
2. Application Software:
Command protocol is based on the ESC/POS standard.
Various Layouts are possible by using page mode (#).
Characters can be scaled up to 64 times as large as the standard size.
Smoothing is also possible.
Repeated operation and copy printing are possible by using macro definitions.
Character font size (12
24 font or 24
24 font) can be selected using a command.
3. Printer Handling:
Easy paper-roll installation.
Equipped with an auto cutter.
The printer allows easy maintenance for tasks such as head cleaning.
Two different print densities can be selected by DIP switches.
The built-in interface provides control capability for one cash drawer.

2. Quick Start
2.1) Unpacking & Parts Identification
a. Unpacking:
B. Parts Identification:
Printer cover
Open this cover to load or replace paper.
Control panel
Features LED indicators to indicate printer
status and buttons to operate the printer.
Front cover
Cover Open lever Pull this lever in the direction of the arrow to open the printer cover.
2.2) Loading the Paper Roll
a.Make sure that the paper roll matches the printer's specification. Do not use paper rolls that have the paper glued to the core because the printer cannot detect the paper end correctly.
Important: The printing quality and lifespan of the thermal head cannot be guaranteed if any paper other than that recommended is used. Thus, the warranty will be void automatically if any fault occurs due to
the use of wrong paper rolls.
