Single-form multipart dot-matrix printer wanted.
We despatch goods with 4-part dockets.
We want to print on to these 4-part dockets, which are designed to be filled out with ball-point pen. These dockets are single, that is they are not part of a continuous fan-fold system. We desperately need a printer to fill out the fields on these single 4-part forms, as required, from our invoicing system. We use Access2010. We use many single multipart forms of different length/width configurations. Clearly the printer will have to be dot-matrix, and have a printable width of 8 inches max. (200mm). The printer, we suspect, will look like a toaster, into which the single 4-part docket is dropped, then printed, then ejected. The software will be adjusted to suit the 4-part form. Does anyone make one of these? We'll pay anything! |

See if there is a fuel supplier near you and go look at one in action. |

You may have to look thru' them yourself to see if one fits your needs. |

Yes thanks, I have done this but they're all rather vague whether they can handle just one sheet of multipart paper, and how close to the edges the print can be done. I need a demo, but all want to sell me one in a sealed box. |

Sale-or-return on the basis it can handle single sheets and print a specific width between the tractor perforations? |
