Installation and Start Up
1.1 Introduction
The Journey II Desktop ATB printer combines rugged durability and high
performance at a low cost, for ATB direct thermal ticketing applications at
travel agencies and satellite ticket printing (STP) locations. Communication
protocols and AEA emulation provide compatibility for existing applications
without host system code modifications.
Multiple PECTABS may be permanently stored in FLASH memory. A
companion itinerary printer serial port is provided. Ease of use is facilitated
with a 12-button color-coded keypad, preset profiles, instruction labels, quick
reference guides and a 2 by 24 display. The paper path, print head and
magnetics are easily accessed for cleaning. Continuous fan-fold stock and
conformance to IATA 722 and AEA specifications insure compatibility to
industry equipment. Direct thermal printing creates sharp, legible print, with
ticket stock being the only consumable.
