The Epson TM-m50II is a compact, high-speed 80 mm thermal receipt printer for busy checkouts, supermarkets, quick-service restaurants and kitchens. It prints 180 dpi receipts at up to 500 mm/s, fits on a 127 mm footprint with top or front paper exit, and cuts automatically. USB, serial (RS-232) and Ethernet are all built in, so it works with traditional PC-POS systems as well as tablets and web-based POS, while a USB-A port takes a customer display, scanner or the optional Wi-Fi dongle. The IPX2 spill-resistant, antimicrobial housing, a 200 km print head and a 2.2-million-cut auto-cutter make it ready for high volumes. This version, C31CK52102, comes in Epson Black; it is supplied with an Epson AC adapter and a power cord with an EU (Schuko) plug – interface cables are not included.
