The reliable choice for highperformance

With more than one million units
placed worldwide, the IBM SurePOS
4694 Point-of-Sale System delivers the
proven performance retailers need to
help keep stores running smoothly
and protect profitability. The IBM 4694
has the processing power to handle
the latest POS applications, including
customer loyalty, electronic marketing
and Web-based sales and service. And
each model is engineered and tested to
withstand harsh retail conditions –
including dust, dirt, humidity and spills.
Solid investment protection
The IBM 4694 has RS-232 and
RS-485 connections, so retailers
can add new POS systems and retain
trusted peripherals. It offers USB ports
so you can add new equipment as it
becomes available. It accommodates
traditional CRT or digital monitors. Its
open platform runs applications for
Microsoft ® Windows ® , IBM 4690 OS
and DOS, so you can keep proven POS
software in place. And it is enabled
for Linux, so you can migrate to Linux
applications when the time is right.
Flexible configurations
The IBM 4694 lets you choose from a
long list of keyboards, displays, cash
drawers and printers. System units with
wide or narrow footprints are available,
as are integrated or distributed configurations.
Expansion options include
optional hard drives, memory upgrades
and ISA/PCI architecture. All of which
helps you tailor the right POS solution
for virtually any store.
Broad software offering
With the IBM 4694, retailers can run
POS applications from IBM or opt for
StoreProven applications developed
by IBM Business Partners. StoreProven
software has been tested to work with
the IBM 46941 – just look for the Store-
Proven emblem to find the right solution
