Cash drawer + thermal printer

Dec 04, 2008 7 Replies

I am getting my RMS v2.0 next week I dont want my cash register to open everytime I print "Duplicate" receipt



Should i connect my cash drawer via printer or should i connect it only durect to my PC/terminal?



Any idea for reliable cash Drawer and thermal printer What are the preferred interface for cash drawer and printers ? Must they all be USB?



For cash drawer I am thinking Possiflex Intergra CR4000series. The one available near my location is using Serial interface, is this OK for cash drawer ?



For thermal printer is either Epson TM T88IV or Samsung Bixolon SP350 plus



Any advise ?



Thank you in advance, Joie


The Star TSP 100series has nice coupon printing feature. Does anyone have experience with this printers

The Microstar TSP100 USB is perfect. The Epson TMT88IV is very good too.

Do not use Posiflex Aura 7000, the OPOS Driver does not work well with RMS.

I would go with the Drawer connected to the printer.

If i connect a drawer to printer. WIll it open if i configure the receipt is to be printed after asking a cashier and the cashier chooses No

This is for the case where customer doesnt really need a receipt for an igsinificant item for example giftwrapping service. I want to save my paper since the printer will journal the receipt

thank you

The drawer will open onl when you ake a payment and only if it is setup to open in the tender type. You can setup cash to pop up the drawer and Credit Card NOT to pop up the drawer. If you are taking a cash payment and not printing the receipt, the Drawer should pop up. If you are printing a duplicate receipt or any other report, the drawer should NOT pop up

Hope you find this info useful.

You can also configure RMS to not allow sales until the drawer is closed. Log into Manager and click on Database | Registers | select your POS register | Properties | Select Cash drawer | check off Wait for drawer close. Craig
