<b>Rugged, reliable kitchen printer</b>
The TM-U230, with its ruggedized design, is ideal for high-volume restaurant kitchens. It features a
strong, easy-to-clean coated case that resists spills, dirt and bacteria. And it offers speedy one- and two-color (red/black) printing at up to 6.4 lines per second for fast processing of orders. The TM-U230 is also available in a lower cost, non-coated casing.
<b>Easy, time-saving features</b>
With its easy-to-use features, the TM-U230 makes employee training fast and efficient. Its two-color printing highlights order changes and orders are printed right side up for easy reading. Character fonts are userselectable as either 7x9 or 9x9 dots.
Paper loading is semi-automatic and the printer has “near-end paper” and “paper out” sensors, each with a buzzer alert. In addition, an Auto Status Back (ASB) function automatically transmits printer status messages to the host system for simplified maintenance. Because space is often at a premium in busy kitchens, the TM-U230 can be installed on a counter or a wall using an optional wall-hanging bracket.
And with Epson’s exclusive Connect-It™ interface options, the TM-U230 is compatible with today’s best-of-breed and component-based systems.
<b>A printer you can rely on day after day</b>
The TM-U230 impact printer offers exceptional reliability with an MCBF of 18 million lines, an MTBF of 180,000 hours and an auto cutter life of one million cuts. Best of all, it’s backed by Epson, the world leader in POS printers.
