Thank you for purchasing the TOSHIBA TEC TRST-56 Series Thermal Printer.  This printer is a

kitchen printer, etc.  
It prints an 80 mm-wide receipt at the maximum print speed of 150 mm/sec.  The body colour is 
selectable between fair white (FW-2) and stylish grey (SG) so that it is possible to coordinate the colour 
with the TOSHIBA TEC POS terminal.  The interface type is either Serial interface (RS-232C) or 
Parallel interface (Centronics) according to the model type.   
This manual contains general set-up and maintenance information and should be read carefully to help
