Trouble Shooting

NOTE 1 - Selecting USB I/O Port

When selecting USB as the interface & no connection is made, different messages may appear on
screen. For instance, "All USB interfaces in use, please delete any unused USB printers and
make sure your printer is plugged in and turned on". The problem lies with the PC I/O ports. PC
maintenance needs to be performed. Some PC corrective actions that can be performed by the
user:
1. If a “line” printer is also attached go into the printer properties & change the port to USB002.

The “line” printer likely has USB001. Since the printer has moved around between ports it
could even be USB003 or USB004.

2. If all USB I/O ports are shown as “occupied” & devices are actually connected, then a port

extender may be needed

3. Run the installer again after plugging the POS receipt printer into another USB port.
4. If problem persists see NOTE 3 below.

NOTE 2 - Printer prints, Cash Drawer Does Not Open

1. Determine if the system application program software (“SAPS”) communicates with the

printer/drawer driver by Driver Based Communications or Direct Based Communications.

2. Driver Based Communications is handled automatically through the printer driver which

controls the opening the cash drawer. Therefore, this method should not be causing the cash
drawer to not open.

3. Direct Based Communications SAPS has Drawer Open Codes that are programmed into the

SAPS to allow the drawer to function. These Codes are in the format expected by the system
application program. The Codes need to be changed.
a. Manually enter the Cash Drawer Open Codes.

i.

Try values from “Codes” column.

ii. If values from Codes column do not work, try “Alternate Codes.

b. If the Codes are fixed contact the software vendor to request that the SAPS be changed to

allow manual entry of the Printer/Cash Drawer Open Codes.
