The 7156 printer is a fast, quiet, and very reliable multiple function printer.
Relatively small, it is easy to setup and use. It prints receipts, validates and prints
checks, and prints on a variety of single- or multiple-part forms. There is no
journal as it is kept electronically by the host computer.

The industry-standard RS-232C communication interface allows the 7156 to be
connected to any host computer that uses RS-232C. Control codes are provided for
easy migration of applications written for Epson as well as other NCR printers.
With thermal printing technology on the more frequently used receipt station,
there is no ribbon cassette to change and paper loading is extremely simple.
Printing on single- or multiple-part forms, validating checks, and printing checks
is also easy in the accommodating slip station. An additional option is the
Magnetic Ink Character Recognition (MICR) check reader with parsing which
reads account numbers on checks for easy verification. An extended slip table is
available for handling large forms and is standard with the MICR check reader
option.
