Thermal Printer
The ICE 5700 terminal integrates a high-speed, six lines per second, thermal printer that provides quiet
and trouble-free operation. Since the thermal printer does not use a ribbon, its support requirement is
reduced. The small number of moving parts results in improved reliability.

The thermal paper allows high-quality printing with a long receipt life. When using the correct paper,
receipt life or the time before fading exceeds five years.
receipt life or the time before fading exceeds five years.
Auto Receipt Cutter
The most troublesome component of any POS terminal is the printer. The auto receipt cutter on the ICE
5700 is designed to eliminate the need to manually tear the receipt. The first receipt prints and cuts,
then the second receipt prints and cuts. Users do not have to manually tear the paper from the terminal,
eliminating paper jams.

High-Speed Modem
The ICE 5700 terminal incorporates the new Hypercom FastPOS™ 9600 bps modem. While fully
compatible with the current 300, 1200, and 2400 bps modems, the FastPOS modem, when working with
a FastPOS network node, provides 9600 bps throughput for transactions, batches, and software
downloading.

FastPOS uses a new technology to achieve 9600 bps throughput and 0.5 second training times at a
cost that is comparable to the cost of 2400 bps modems.
cost that is comparable to the cost of 2400 bps modems.
FastPOS results in faster transactions and lower transaction costs. For example, at a 5-cents-per-
minute 800 dial rate, with a 1-second billing interval, a FastPOS transaction costs less than 0.5 cents.
More importantly, FastPOS enables large data blocks to be transmitted without a cost penalty. Many of
the new opportunities created by the touch screen of the ICE 5700 become more practical when high-
speed communications are available.
