USB-C and Ethernet Connectivity
This exact TSP143IVUE 39473010 configuration includes both USB-C and Ethernet connectivity, giving businesses two common ways to connect a receipt printer to a POS system.
USB-C
USB-C provides a direct wired connection for compatible POS terminals, computers and mobile-device configurations.
Ethernet / LAN
The built-in Ethernet interface allows the printer to connect to a wired local network. Network printing can be useful when multiple POS stations or cloud-connected applications need access to a centrally located receipt printer.
Star TSP143IVUE vs. TSP143IV X4
| TSP143IVUE 39473010 | USB-C and Ethernet / LAN connectivity with CloudPRNT and Android Open Accessory support. This is the exact configuration sold on this product page. |
|---|---|
| TSP143IV X4 | Newer TSP143IV configurations combine USB-C, Ethernet, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth in one printer. X4 models use different manufacturer part numbers. |
If your POS system requires Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, do not order the 39473010 based only on the TSP143IV family name. Confirm the exact interface requirements with your POS software provider or ShopPOSPortal before purchasing.
80 mm and 58 mm Receipt Paper
The TSP143IVUE is designed primarily for standard 80 mm thermal receipt paper. It can also print on 58 mm thermal paper when configured with the supplied paper guide.
| 80 mm Paper | Standard configuration with a maximum printable width of approximately 72 mm. |
|---|---|
| 58 mm Paper | Supported using the paper guide with a maximum printable width of approximately 50.8 mm. |
| Maximum Roll Diameter | Approximately 83 mm. |
Because this is a direct thermal receipt printer, no ink cartridges, toner cartridges or ribbons are required. The printer creates the receipt image directly on compatible thermal paper.
Fast Automatic Receipt Cutting
The TSP143IVUE includes a guillotine-style automatic cutter designed for partial cuts. Star rates the cutter for up to approximately 2 million cuts under specified operating conditions.
The print mechanism is rated at an MCBF of approximately 60 million lines and the thermal printhead is rated for approximately 100 km, helping make the TSP143IV suitable for demanding commercial checkout environments.
CloudPRNT and Cloud POS Printing
The TSP143IVUE supports Star Micronics CloudPRNT technology, allowing compatible cloud applications to communicate with the receipt printer without requiring a traditional locally installed POS application for every workflow.
Cloud printing capabilities depend on the POS software, application integration, network configuration, printer firmware and CloudPRNT implementation being used.
Android Open Accessory Support
Android Open Accessory, commonly called AOA, allows compatible Android devices to communicate directly with supported Star printers. This can simplify tablet-based POS installations where an Android tablet or terminal is used as the primary checkout device.
Device charging, communication and application support depend on the Android hardware, software and POS configuration being used.

Common Buying Mistakes to Avoid
Assuming It Has Bluetooth
The 39473010 model does not have built-in Bluetooth. Choose an appropriate TSP143IV X4 configuration if Bluetooth is required.
Assuming It Has Wi-Fi
This model includes Ethernet networking, not built-in Wi-Fi. Verify the exact model if wireless LAN is required.
Checking Only the Connector
A USB-C or Ethernet connection does not guarantee POS software compatibility. Confirm that your application supports this Star printer and interface.
Ordering the Wrong Paper
The printer uses direct thermal receipt paper. Standard paper width is 80 mm, with 58 mm supported through the paper guide.
