Star Micronics SCP700 Series Combination Printer Programmer's Manual

The SCP700 Series is a combination printer developed by Sanyo that combines a quick, quiet, and highly reliable thermal receipt printer with an impact dot slip printer, enabling printing on single or multiple sheets of slip paper of an unspecified size. The thermal printer enables receipt printing without a thermal ribbon and makes paper insertion extremely easy. The biggest advantage of combining the two printer mechanisms into one unit is that less space, only one power supply and only one port are necessary, compared to other printers, saving cost and space.

About this manual

The SCP700 Series combines a thermal receipt printer with an impact dot slip printer, allowing receipt and slip printing from a single unit with one power supply and one port. The thermal printer prints quietly and quickly without a ribbon, while the slip printer handles multi‑sheet slip paper.

This manual details the printer’s DIP switch settings for communication parameters, thermal print density, and interface options, explains memory switch configuration stored in EEPROM, and describes the standard serial and optional parallel interfaces, driver circuits, and control codes needed for programming and service tasks.
