I have looked high and low for a solution on this one to no avail:
I am editing receipt templates in the Manager>Database>Registers>Receipt Format screen There is only one entry in the Receipt Formats window, titled "40 Column Receipt". I select Properties, then Properties on the "Sales" receipt. The preview looks exactly as I'd like it to be. For good measure I select "Open" and then "Save As", so I know it's saving a fresh copy. I click OK to exit then Yes to update all transaction types. Now I click on the magnifying glass by "Sales" and re-select the .xml file I just saved. Again I click Yes to update all transaction types. Then OK and I'm informed that I have to restart all POS stations to take effect.
When I go back in and view the properties of the receipt and select "Print" the receipt looks nothing like the one in the preview pane. Then I go and start up a POS and the receipt formats have not changed when printing new transactions. This is starting to drive me a little nutty!
I have also, for good measure, deleted the format and created a new "40 Column Receipt", made the changes on the POS and the office machine with the local database, even deleted the registers and re- created them, all without any luck. I can't help but get the feeling that I'm missing something somewhat obvious here.
The printers are Star TSP743c The drivers are OPOS from the manufacturer The RMS version is 1.2 (Due to some legacy hardware issues we are just getting around to 1.3)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Brandon
