Black Dot Position and Presentation Scheme
All graphics preprinted on the ticket must be in thermal paper compatible ink.
Black Dot Position
The back of the ticket is used for the Black Dot/Top of Form indicator. For the printer to
sense when a ticket has been indexed to the printing position, a Black Dot/Top of Form
sensor is needed. It must be printed in black, thermal paper compatible, infrared
readable ink. The 10.16mm area in line with the Black Dot/Top of Form indicator and
the ticket edge (keep-out zone) must remain clear, as the Ticket Out Sensor will read
that area while the ticket is printed and presented. The remaining area on the back of the
ticket may be used for rules and disclaimer.
