Chapter 1: About the 7193 Printer
The 7193 thermal receipt printer is fast, quiet, and very reliable. With thermal printing
technology, there is no ribbon cassette to change, and paper loading is extremely simple.
The printer is small enough to fit almost anywhere and is easy to use with the receipt
exiting from the top. There is no journal as it is kept electronically by the host system.
Models There are several models of the 7193 depending on the communication interface and the
combination of options selected.
Communication Interfaces
•RS-232C
•Parallel
•LCSIO (RS-485)
See “Appendix D: Connectors” later in this book or the Owner's Guide for more
information.

•Two resident selectable character sets:
•PC Code Page 437 (US)
•PC Code Page 850 (Multilingual)
•16K RAM available for downloadable character sets and bit-mapped graphics
•4K buffer (RS-232C and Parallel)
•History EEROM

•Standard with RS-232C and Parallel interface models
•Optional with LCSIO (RS-485) models: these models may be powered through the
remote power supply or through the host system
•Paper cutter
•Cash drawer drivers: will open a separately purchased cash drawer under software
command (RS-232C and Parallel only)
•Wall-mount kit for hanging the printer on a wall
Thermal Printhead
The 7193 uses a thermal printhead which is extremely fast and quiet. Because it uses heat
to print directly on paper, there is no cassette or ribbon to change, eliminating soiled
fingers and paper dust.
The printhead is designed for a very long life, but it may be replaced if needed. See
“Troubleshooting” later in this book for information on when to replace the printhead. See
“Removing the Printhead” in “Disassembling and Reassembling the Printer” later in this

7193 Service Guide Chapter 1: About the 7193 Printer

book for instructions on replacing the printhead. See “Cleaning the Printer” later in this
chapter for cleaning instructions for the printhead.
Cleaning the Printer
Cleaning the Cabinet
Clean the cabinet as needed to remove dust and finger marks. Use any household cleaner
made for plastics, but test it first on a small unseen area. If the receipt paper bucket is dirty,
wipe it with a clean, damp cloth. The cabinet materials and finish are durable and are
resistant to the following items:
•Cleaning solutions
•Lubricants
•Fuels
•Cooking oils
•Ultraviolet light
Cleaning the Thermal Printhead
If the printhead appears dirty, clean it with cotton swabs and rubbing alcohol.
Caution: Do not spray the thermal printhead with household cleaner as this may damage
it and the electronics.
If spotty or light printing problems persist after cleaning the thermal printhead, contact
your NCR authorized service representative.
Note: The thermal printhead does not normally require cleaning if the recommended
paper grades are used. If non-recommended paper has been used for an extended period
of time, cleaning the printhead with the alcohol pen will not be of much benefit.
If this is the case, the printhead will need to be changed. See “Removing the Printhead” in
“Disassembling and Reassembling the Printer” later in this book for instructions on
replacing the printhead.
