Thermal Printer
The thermal printer is a hardcopy device that accepts composite video (RS-170 or CCIR) from the Display Controller
PCB to produce grayscale images on heat-sensitive paper. Image resolution is typically 256 scales of gray, with 1280
dots per line. The thermal printer requires manual control from a footswitch, remote control unit, or front panel
controls. It can print a page in 10 seconds.
For a complete description of the composite video signals produced by the Display Controller, refer to Section 7 -
Image Subsystem.
