Receipt Printers
5:47 PM EDT 5/6/08
Hi,

Does anyone use the Star SP200 receipt printers?
We use them and would like to know how to increase the number of blank spaces after each check out.
Example: at our reserve desk, we do not tear of each receipt. Rather, we leave them on and cross off each check out when the material is brought back (2 hour in-house check outs only).
Maybe someone out there knows how? Or can point me in the direction of who to contact?

Many thanks,
Jocelyn

You may be able to do this through the footer settings within your circulation software rather than the printer itself.

This is usually done in your circulation software if it has the ability to input a line feed code at the end of the receipt. I don't know of any way to do that through the printer itself as the printer has no way of knowing where the end of one receipt is.

I would contact your ILS vendor on that one.

Good Luck!

I was able to increase the line feed at the bottom of our receipts by adding empty lines to the end text of our ILS' receipt template. We use Star TSP and Epson printers w/ VTLS Virtua. The lines collapsed, though, unless I added a character (like a period) in the last line or set up the printer to add a logo to the bottom of the receipt.

Cheers,
Gunther
