Tally T6218, Robust, Highly Efficient Single-Row Hammer Bank

Product Number: , 621031, 621030
Mission-Critical Impact Printing.

The T6218 is a ground-breaking solution for high-volume, mission-critical impact printing. Cutting-edge innovation and time-tested technology are combined to make the T6218 superior in speed, reliability, and quality. At 1800 lines per minute (LPM), T6218 actually outperform line printers rated at higher speeds when printing in "real world" applications. Outstanding throughput is made possible by technological advancements to the hammer bank and paper feed system. T6218 line printer, Forms Handling Benefits Four-tractor system allows high slew speeds, accurate forms tensioning, forms reversal capability, and steel tractor pins in upper tractors for reduced wear, longer life. Straight-through paper path is designed for excellent, uncompromising forms handling. Patented Smart Ribbon. The patented Smart Ribbon 250 offers clean-hands ribbon cartridge convenience while delivering new ribbon quality over its entire 250 million character life-the longest life in the industry.

Emulations
The emulations available on your printer are: MT660, Printronix P600, Printronix P6000, Printronix P5000, Epson FX-1180, IBM Proprinter III XL, IBM 4234 (Twinax and Coax), IBM 4210 and 5225 (Twinax Only), DEC LG01, HP2564C, MTPL, Genicom ANSI, PJL, Code V, PGL, IPDS.

Type Style
There are six resident type styles available on your printer. They include Gothic, Courier, Data Processing, Draft, OCR-A, and OCR-B. All type styles and the two output modes (for Draft and DP) are selectable through the printer control panel.

Gothic and Courier
These two type styles provide Near Letter Quality (NLQ) printing. They print at higher dot densities and use denser character matrixes for greater readability on T6218.

Draft and Data Processing
Draft and Data Processing type styles print in two modes: T6218, Constant Density Fonts (CDF) and Enhanced. T6218, Constant Density Fonts print at the same dot density regardless of the CPI. This produces consistent print speed even when changing from one CPI to another.
T6218, Enhanced Mode provides higher resolution and a greater range of CPIs than CDF Mode. Because Enhanced Mode uses a variety of dot densities you should expect a change in print speed of text when switching from one CPI to another on T6218.

OCR.A and OCR.B
These print at 10 CPI only, mostly for Optical Character Recognition applications.

Characters Per Inch
Your T62182 offers a variety of CPIs for use in printer output. Available CPIs are dictated by the Type Style selected. Each CPI is based on one of 12 character matrixes and 12 Dot Densities. Each matrix uses a specific number of dot columns for character composition and intercharacter gap. CPIs are grouped in any given type style by the base CPI matrix used for the group. Those Base CPIs are 10, 12, and 15.

Densities and Throughput
Your T6218, supports Horizontal row plots (single and multiple row), Vertical column plots, and specialized Graphic plots. Your printer supports the following horizontal DPIs: 40, 48, 60, 80, 90, 120, 180, and 240. Scaled densities available on your printer are 50, 72, 75, 96, 100, 144, 150, 160, and 200. All other selections will be approximated by conversion to the next higher density.

Your T6218 supports the following vertical DPIs: 48, 72, 96, 144, and 288. All other selections are emulated through the use of scaling techniques.
