Are the AATPR20 and AATPR10 printers interchangeable?

No.  Though they appear nearly identical, these two printers are not interchangeable.  The AATPR10 will work only with the AA500P tester.  The AATPR20 includes newer features that are compatible only with the AA1000 series and AA360 testers.

Is the paper for the AATPR10/20 of a standard size available on the market?

Yes and no.  The width of the paper is standard (58mm, 2.25in), as is the thickness (65u.)  The diameter of the roll is non-standard at 23mm, 13/16in.  You may purchase rolls of paper from Argus or from any Argus distributor.  If you wish to source paper in bulk and prepare your own rolls, be sure to roll the paper such that the thermally active side of the paper faces the center of the roll.  More on rolling your own paper.

Can more than one AA tester use the same printer?

The printer can be attached and removed in a matter of seconds from any tester with a printer port, much like a battery pack on a cordless drill.  Technically one printer may be easily shared by a number of compatible testers.

Can I customize the AATPR10 printed test report to print our name and address?

Yes.  There are three lines of text at the top of the test report that can be programmed by the user.  Doing so is, of course, optional.  Instructions for how to program the custom report header can be found in the manuals for the tester or printer.  The instructions for programming the AATPR10 are here.

Can test results be printed?

Yes, if you are using the AA500P tester with the printer attached.  The optional test report printer, AATPR10, may be attached to the AA500P tester.  The printer is available as an option or can be purchased as a kit with the AA500P tester.  The part number for the combo kit is AA500PWP.
