Using the Cash Drawer
The cash drawer is where you put the money after you ring up a sale. The
cash drawer has slots for putting paper bills and a removable tray for
coins. You can store paper items such as checks and charge slips under the
removable coin tray.
When you ring up a sale, the cash drawer automatically opens so you can
make change and put money away. You can also electronically open the
cash drawer without making a sale. This is handy if you need to make
change for someone or forgot to put something away. Press the #/NS
<SYM> key.
The cash drawer locks in 2 different ways. Locking the cash drawer is a
good idea if you need to leave the cash register.
• end a sale paid for with cash
• enter the dollar amount the customer gave you for a
cash sale and the register calculates change
• to enter and accept all entries in the Program mode
and Reports mode
