Edison , NJ …February 2003     Star Micronics is widely respected for its highly reliable dot matrix and thermal POS and hospitality printers. Building on this legacy, Star is pleased to announce the release of the SP500 series printers. The SP500 sets a new standard for design, features and performance in dot matrix printers.  The SP500 series features tear bar and auto cutter models and is available in a putty or charcoal housing. The printer comes standard with serial or parallel interfaces and uses a universal internal power supply that reduces clutter and maintains a small footprint. In applications requiring a journal copy, a paper rewind option is available for both models. With ultra-fast print speeds of over 4 lines per second (lps), the SP500 outperforms all competitors in its class. 

The SP500 achieves optimal print speed by utilizing Star’s new logic-seeking print mechanism and high speed 9-pin print head making text, graphics, and modifiers print at amazing speeds. Paper handling is effortless in the SP500 series, thanks to semi-automatic paper loading and a spindle-less paper roll holder. The SP500 supports multiple copy printing and has a black mark sensor for ticket and form applications. Effortless paper handling is complemented by the worldwide availability of our easy load RC200 ribbon cartridge.
