Installation Tips
- Usually, the terminal will beep to indicate that you are running out of paper.
- The first thing you do is take a new POS paper roll and peel off the tape that is wrapped around it. Unroll it just a little bit.
- Then, open the terminal by pressing the appropriate button (Open/Load Paper). It will be near the spot where the receipt is dispensed.
- Next thing to do is take out the empty paper roll and discard it. Place the new one in the machine while holding the extra paper that you unrolled previously and put it in the open tab.
- Finally, press the feed button so that the terminal can pull in the paper and close the card machine.
