The TM-T88IV thermal printer is the latest addition to Epson’s innovative, industry-leading TM-T88 POS printer series.

Fast two-color printing of text and graphics

Now you can speed customer transactions with the TM-T88IV printer. It prints receipts at speeds of up to 200mm (7.9 inches) per second—25% faster than the TM-T88III and, unlike other printers, the TM-T88IV prints text and graphics at the same fast speed. In addition, its two-color red and black printing capabilities can be used to highlight order changes to minimize kitchen error and create attention-getting color logos and impactful marketing messages.

Designed for ease-of-use and convenience

The TM-T88IV’s small footprint is ideally suited for both retail and hospitality environments. The printer can be placed either on the countertop or wall using an optional wall-hanging bracket, whichever is most convenient. It also features easy, drop-in paper loading, an autocutter, an improved cover design to protect from spills and an optional annunciator to alert wait staff when kitchen orders are ready.

Reliability you can count on

The TM-T88IV boasts even more reliability than the TM-T88III. With a MCBF of 52 million lines, a MTBF of 360,000 hours and an autocutter life of 1.5 million cuts, the TM-T88IV printer delivers the outstanding reliability that is critical in high-volume environments.

Integration made easy

With Epson’s wide range of Connect-It™ interfaces, the TM-T88IV is compatible with today’s best-of-breed and component-based systems. Interface options are available for high-speed (12 Mbps) USB, serial, parallel, USB, Ethernet and wireless. The TM-T88IV also has the same external dimensions as the TM-T88III for easy drop-in replacement.
