FAQ
How fast does the PR-65 actually print, and does it eliminate checkout delays?
The PR-65 prints at 220mm/sec, delivering receipts before customers finish payment processing. High-speed thermal printing removes the "Please wait for receipt" friction that typically slows F&B and retail counters during peak hours.

The PR-65 prints QR codes, EAN-8, EAN-13, Code 39, Code 128, ITF, UPC-A, UPC-E, and Codabar formats. Full or partial auto-cutter options let you customize receipt length for different transaction types without reconfiguration.
Will the auto-cutter handle 12+ hours of continuous checkout use?
Yes. The PR-65 is rated for 1.5 million auto-cutter cycles and 100km printer head life. Built for serious transaction volumes in retail, hospitality, and F&B environments without degradation or maintenance issues.
Which connection should we use: Serial, USB, or Ethernet?
