The Auto-Text Reversal™ Tool, receipts can easily be turned upside down for user comfort when wall mounted by simply ticking a box in the software or Windows™ printer properties pages. NEW ECO Tools & Features now included in futurePRNT Software for the new TSP100 ECO Series. Star has endeavoured to build this printer with every ECO advantage. It is a well-known fact that printers permanently left powered-on waste power. However, it is not so well-known that most of the CO2 damage caused by any POS printer is actually due to the paper consumed. Star has therefore researched and put in place unique paper saving features that could help the retailer use up to 70% less receipt paper. This not only reduces paper costs but means less frequent paper roll changes at the checkout, lower transportation and logistics costs – basically a win-win situation for the planet and the retailer. 11mm Unique Partial Cut 3mm Default Top Margin This is not rocket science, but so obvious and so necessary. Star’s innovative and experienced engineering expertise has resulted in the TSP100 ECO being the only partial cut printer able to achieve a 3mm Top Margin saving 8mm of paper for every receipt printed. Just calculate the savings yourself. Some competitors cannot even achieve an 11mm Top Margin, so please check this very carefully when comparing competitive POS printers. 3mm default Greene& Brown’s THE ORGANIC PROVISIONS PEOPLE Greene& Brown’s Date: 17/11/10 THE ORGANIC PROVISIONS PEOPLE 1 x Marmalade 1 x Fish Pie 2 x Miso Soup 1 x Veg Gyoza 1 x Cider 1 x Organic Ale 1 x Sourdough 1 x Passata sauce Date: 17/11/10 1 x Marmalade 1 x Fish Pie 2 x Miso Soup 1 x Veg Gyoza 1 x Cider 20.26 £3.00 £4.80 £3.50 £2.50 £3.50 20.26 £3.00 £4.80 £3.50 £2.50 £3.50 £3.20 £3.65 £5.50 80mm – 58mm Auto Reduction without changing original POS Software The TSP100 ECO can automatically reduce receipts from an 80mm wide format to 58mm without changing the customer’s original software set-up.

TSP100 ECO Series. Receipts On Demand Printing Once again Star has used the clever futurePRNT software to produce an Operator Prompt to ask the customer whether they need a receipt or not. The receipt can then be either cancelled or printed, perfect for low cost, consumable items such as newspapers, fast food etc. as the receipts are often left behind. All cancelled receipts can be saved graphically and be reviewed or reprinted. (Note: not all countries will allow this feature so the software may be modified on a regional basis). What’s in the Box? Star, as today’s most innovative POS printer manufacturer, was the 1st manufacturer to include all installation accessories in the box increasing customer convenience and reducing packaging. (Please see back page for details). Star has now taken this one step further by eliminating all polystyrene from the box and replacing it with innovative and ethically sourced cardboard packaging. Even the printer’s plastic case is made of halogen-free recyclable plastic. Pre-Installation Set-up Tool Reduce multiple printer installation and maintenance time using the Pre-Installation Set-Up Tool saving all printer settings, logos, coupons on the PC itself. The printer does not need to be taken out of the box and pre-configured before on-site installation. Use the TSP100 ECO Guilt-Free. Here at Star, we’ve built our reputation on producing high quality POS printing solutions at low prices. And, with the launch of the TSP100 futurePRNT ECO, we’ve taken that commitment on in leaps and bounds by creating a POS printer that’s not only friendlier on the pocket but also on the environment too. Carbon offsetting is the responsible way to compensate for the unavoidable CO2 emissions from our daily lives and economic activities by supporting the projects that deliver the equivalent CO2 savings elsewhere. Star Micronics has therefore purchased Certified Emission Reductions (CERS) carbon credits derived from the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) projects as defined by the Kyoto Protocol and registered by CDM Executive Board of UN. The carbon credits purchased will offset the CO2 emissions emitted from the TSP100 ECO manufacturing & disposal process and projected power consumption for up to 5 years (total 33.9 kg/unit). The CERs used will then be cancelled to complete the offsetting process. More details can be found on www.futurePRNT.com including the opportunity to register all ECO printer purchases and print certificates to show how your company is helping to minimize environmental damage from IT activities. Star ECO Impact Analysis Tool Work out how much money and environmental damage you can save by using the Star Impact Analysis Tool in Euros, Dollars, Sterling or Yen! More details on www.futurePRNT.com TSP100. ECO Power Management. Inspired by the Cheetah, nature’s greatest exponent of energy efficiency, we’ve put every waking hour into creating the most environmentally friendly POS printer money can buy. The TSP100 ECO uses up to 40% less power than the majority of competitive printers available today. Plug-in System Off Mode 0.05W Is Host Powered ON? No Yes 0.3 – 0.5 seconds System Check Mode 1.34W Print Ready Mode 0.76W Yes Is Host Powered OFF? No Print Signal No Those clever engineers at Star have designed this printer to correspond directly to the PC it has been attached to. Users will first of all notice that there is no power switch and that the printer can only be turned on by actually attaching the included USB cable to the printer and PC / terminal. The printer will only activate when the PC / terminal is powered up otherwise it can remain in standby mode, thus saving power. Most POS printers spend the major part of a day drawing current, but not printing. Star’s new power efficient method means the printer will revert with the PC to a very low powered standby mode when not in use, “instantly” waking up when needed saving costs and power usage. Yes 0.2 seconds System Check Mode 1.34W Printing 29.57W New Industry-leading 4 year limited Warranty on all futurePRNT Series including print head and cutter.

PRESS RELEASE NEW TSP100 ECO PRINTER FROM STAR MICRONICS MINIMISES ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT AND REDUCES OPERATING COSTS 30 April 2010 The TSP100 futurePRNT™ series from Star Micronics successfully combines a high performance POS printer with ground-breaking software. Going from strength to strength the series has seen the introduction of a range of models over the last five years including the world’s first dedicated single station Powered USB and LAN models as well as the 250mm/second TSP100GT series. The series is now successfully positioned as the most innovative and feature rich POS printer available today. In fact, Star’s position in the marketplace is reinforced by other POS printer manufacturers following Star’s lead. Yet, Star continues to maintain its leading position when it comes to innovation with the recent introduction of the world’s first dedicated ECO POS printer, the TSP100 ECO, that effectively responds to minimising IT environmental impact within the retail market while at the same time reducing IT costs for the retailer. By providing the original TSP100U futurePRNT with a faster dedicated ECO printer model at no extra cost, retailers can help fight climate change and reduce operating costs. This printer offers an ECO solution based on all aspects of use and manufacture including packaging, paper consumption as well as providing unique power management. The TSP100 ECO is fully Energy Star Compliant and uses up to 40% less power than the majority of similar products today. With the TSP100 ECO retailers not only benefit from all the features and functionality experienced to date with the TSP100 series but also a number of environmentally friendly and cost-saving tools. These include unique paper saving features that could help the retailer use up to 70% less receipt paper, resulting in reduced paper costs, less frequent paper roll changes at the checkout, lower transportation and logistics costs. The TSP100 ECO is the only partial cut printer able to achieve a 3mm Top Margin saving 8mm of paper for every receipt printed. Furthermore, this printer can automatically reduce paper from an 80mm wide format to be printed on 58mm wide paper without the need for software changes. In addition, Star has developed a ‘receipts on demand’ tool that prompts the retailer to ask the customer whether a receipt is required. The receipt can then be either printed or cancelled thus reducing paper costs. This function, which can be easily turned on and off, is ideal for low value, consumable items for which a receipt is often not sought by the customer. Unlike most POS printers that draw current when not printing the TSP100 ECO has a unique power management system which means the printer will revert with the PC to a very low powered standby mode when not in use while ‘instantly’ waking up when required to print. And, as with all printers within the TSP100 series, the TSP100 ECO comes with all installation accessories included in the box. However, Star has eliminated all polystyrene and replaced it with innovative cardboard packaging while the printer’s plastic case is made of halogen-free recyclable plastic. Carbon offsetting is the responsible way to compensate for the unavoidable CO2 emissions from our daily lives and economic activities by supporting the projects that deliver the equivalent CO2 savings elsewhere. Demonstrating Star’s commitment to fighting climate change the manufacturer has purchased Certified Emission Reductions (CERS) carbon credits derived from the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) projects as defined by the Kyoto Protocol and registered by CDM Executive Board of UN. The carbon credits will offset the CO2 emissions emitted from the TSP100 ECO manufacturing and disposal process and projected power consumption for up to 5 years. The CERs used will then be cancelled to complete the offsetting process. Simon Martin, Director and General Manager, Star Micronics EMEA states, “At Star we have built our reputation and market position on developing high quality POS printing solutions at low prices. With the launch of the TSP100 ECO we have embraced that commitment and, building on the success to date of the TSP100 series, have created a low cost POS printer with an industry-leading 4 year RTB limited warranty including print head and cutter.
