Now you are ready for sales registration.

While the cash register is pre-programmed so it can be used with minimal setup, it does provide you

with optional functions.  Before you start programming, please read through the sales operations section to
understand optional functions.

Decimal point position (tab) setting for domestic currency
By default, “2” is selected.  When your country has a different tab setting, you must change the setting.  Please
refer to "Other programming" of “Various Function Selection Programming 1” (Job code 61) on page 44.

Rounding system
When your country has a special rounding system, such as Australia, Switzerland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark
and South Africa you must change the setting to suit your country. For the setting for Australia, Switzerland,
Norway and South Africa please refer to “Other programming” of “Various Function Selection Programming 1”
(Job code 67) on page 46.  For the setting for Sweden and Denmark, please refer to “Other programming” of
“Various Function Selection Programming 1” (Job code 69) on page 47.

VAT/tax
The cash register provides 6 kinds of VAT/tax.  Select an appropriate VAT/tax system first, then set tax rates (up
to 4 rates) and assign taxable status to departments.  By default, VAT 1 is assigned for all departments.

Clerk assignment
Prior to any item entries, clerks must enter their clerk codes into the register.  However, the code entry may not
be necessary when the same clerk handles the consecutive transactions.

Receipt ON/OFF function
When you use the printer to issue receipts, you can disable receipt printing in the REG mode to save paper
using the receipt ON/OFF function. To disable receipt printing, press the 

R

key in the OP X/Z position.  This

key toggles the receipt printing status ON and OFF. 
To check the receipt printing status, turn the mode switch to the OP X/Z position or press the 

l

key in the REG

mode. When the function is in the OFF mode, the receipt off indicator “_” is illuminated.  
The register will print reports regardless of the receipt state, so the paper roll must be installed.  
To issue a receipt when receipt ON/OFF function is set to OFF:
If your customer wants a receipt after you finalized a transaction with the receipt ON/OFF function being OFF
status, press the 

R

key.  This will produce a receipt.  However, if more than 30 items were entered, the

receipt will be issued in a summary receipt.

Copy receipt
You can print a copy receipt by pressing the 

R

key when the receipt ON/OFF function is in the “ON” status.

To realize this function, you must enable the function.  Please refer to page 45 (Job code 63).

Power Save Mode
The register will enter into power save mode when no entries are performed based on the pre-programmed time
limit (by default, 30 minutes).
When the register goes to the power save mode, all display lights will turn off except the decimal point at the
leftmost position.  The register will return to the normal operation mode when any key is pressed or a mode is
changed with the mode key.  Please note when the register is recovered by a key entry, its key entry is invalid.
After the recovery, start the key entry from the beginning.

For another merchandise classification, the cash register provides a maximum of 1200 PLUs/subdepartments.
PLUs are used to call up preset prices by a code entry.  Subdepartments are used to classify merchandise into
smaller groups under the departments.  Every PLU and subdepartment has a code from 1 to 1200, and should
belong to a department to obtain attributes of that department.

By default, the cash register is preprogrammed to be able to use 1 to 200 codes, and these 200 codes are set to
PLU mode and zero for unit price.
To extend the number of PLU codes to 1200, please refer to “EJ memory type” on page 41, and for other
PLU/subdepartment programming, refer to “PLU and Subdepartment Programming” on page 29.
