The Lowest Cost, High Quality POS Printer
THE TSP100 SERIES
Including the latest versions in the TSP100 Series – TSP100 PUSB
– the World’s 1st Entry-Level, Dedicated Powered USB models

Benefit from improved cable management and, more importantly,
being able to cost-effectively use the same UPS on both your POS
station and printer at the same price as a traditional printer.
USB is now the industry’s preferred communication link between a PC and
a printer; so what is the next logical step – to combine the power supply
and interface to produce Powered USB. As a result, Star has developed the
world’s first dedicated entry-level Powered USB printers offering significant
cost advantages over competitor products for all types of retailer.
As usual the POS market is in IT transition with the future looking at
Powered USB terminal and peripherals. The key advantages include now
being able to cost-effectively include UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply)
cover on both the PC and printer so that all transactions will be protected.
The TSP100 PUSB is therefore perfect to replace any single station printer
with a free-of-charge upgrade path when the retailer decides to follow the
industry and use Powered USB POS Terminals at the same price as a
traditional single station printer.
To r eplace a single station serial printer; set the printer up as indicated;
change the interface cable to USB and create a Virtual Serial Port using
the Star wizard included in the TSP100 Printer Properties Page under
“TSP config”. Contact Star for the quick fix to replace a Parallel printer.
Star Performance – Receipts Per Minute
NEW TSP100 Powered USB Printers
Over the last three years Star Micronics has
introduced a variety of new products with such
advanced processing power that the old
fashioned method of measuring print speed has
been made redundant. Simply measuring how
fast the head will print one isolated 4mm line of
output does not take into account the total investment that
has been put into the overall “build”.
Star Micronics will therefore be using the new standard in print
speed measurement called RPM. This will measure the actual
time taken to produce an entire receipt from the moment it is
requested by the software to when it is produced – all in a
laboratory controlled environment. Star’s latest product,
TSP100
futurePRNT, is testament to the vast difference in
throughput speed when using the very latest in printer
technology. Just look at the results in the table below. Users
are no longer limited to using old fashioned, unexciting
resident fonts on their receipts.
The TSP100
futurePRNT is capable of producing the same
number of receipts per minute using modern TrueType fonts
instead.
The printer is supplied with two
port covers for use depending
on configuration chosen.

FuturePRNT Software
This revolutionary new tool has been designed
to work completely independently from your
current POS software and will allow any user to
literally re-design their receipts without changing
their software. Legacy software can have
embedded text and graphics which you may
have always wanted to change. Now you can, with the new
RECEIPT CROPPING TOOL which will crop unwanted
sections, thus creating space for new graphics and text. The
unique Star Selectable
PRE-VIEW TOOL will make this task
even easier. Perhaps the most important element will be the
FONT REPLACEMENT TOOL (available early 2006) making
the printer’s resident fonts no longer relevant. This, along with
the other tools mentioned, will be available from the printer’s
properties page and, when selected, will replace any non
TrueType fonts featured on the receipt with a more attractive /
effective font – all without affecting the speed of the printer.
RE-DESIGN TOOL
RECEIPT
Literally re-design your receipt without changing your software or becoming an IT expert.
Crop out embedded text and images, add new profit-making messages and graphics.
Star’s revolutionary new printer has taken customer motivation
to new heights with this free-of-charge value-added software,
which will work alongside your current system. The new
Coupon Marketing Tool from Star will enable the automatic
printing of coupons based on the retailer’s pre-decided
products or purchase values relevant to that transaction.
Seasonal fluctuations, overstock situations can all be
addressed by the retailer determining certain “trigger action”
key words. Unlike AutoLogo on The TSP700, the simple wizarddriven software will “word-search” all receipts to ascertain the
automatic output of relevant coupons or graphics.
The new IMAGE IMPORT TOOL
simplifies the usual logo store
set-up by eliminating the need for
the usual image preparation work.
An unlimited number of mono or
colour jpgs, gifs and bmps can be
accessed by the control panel,
saved by name and even prepared
for output with a choice of dither
methods. There is no longer any
need to pre-size or pre-save an image file as a mono bmp, as
was so often required by other POS printers. The TSP100’s
unique installation set-up facility will allow PCs to be preinstalled (not necessarily with the printer connected) for multiple
printer use across the whole store. The new PRE-VIEW TOOL
provides retailers and system builders with the ability to precheck the overall appearance of planned receipts by using the
pre-view tool during set-up. This simple tool, again a rare
facility in the POS world, will save much time.
Star has produced a dedicated SDK (Modular
Software Developers Kit) with a wide range of
tools available, allowing the system designer to
take advantage of all the TSP100’s software and
hardware features e.g auto text reversal for
vertical / wall mounted use. This feature can
literally be dragged and dropped into the developer’s software.
PRE-INSTALLATION SET-UP TOOL – with Easy driver
installation for all major platforms with CD-ROM supplied or
using the Star designed architecture for fast modifications
when needed. Custom filters / features can be easily written
by the Integrator or OEM or in conjunction with our UK
software engineers. The unique Printer Serial Number Identifier
will also be ideal for remote polling for hardware audits,
warranty / servicing issues etc.
“DRAG & DROP” SOFTWARE FEATURE TOOL
Active X Components for Star Printer Feature Inclusion into
OEM Software.
The secret of Star’s success with this ground-breaking product is a result
of the investment that Star has put in time, effort and money into the
software provided with this printer.
This software far exceeds the installation tools normally provided, enabling users to install high
volume, custom set-ups without even taking the printer out of its box. Users can pre-determine
set-up requirements due to the operating platform selected as well as take advantage of the
Receipt Re-design and Coupon Marketing tools which will work happily alongside the current
installed POS software. Star is constantly new
futurePRNT software tools; details of which can
be found on
www.futureprnt.com Examples of just some of the Value-Added Software for
Retailers include:
The new JOURNAL AND
MULTI-COPY TOOL
from Star
truly demonstrates the
versatility of the Star TSP100
futurePRNT. Not only can the
user now determine how many
copies should be printed, but
they can also specify the
different text and graphics required per copy – perfect for DIY
retailers, pizza delivery companies to name just a few of the
users that will really appreciate this tool.
