GETTING STARTED

Please follow the procedure shown below. The batteries are not installed and the power is OFF.

Three new “AA” batteries must be installed in the cash register to prevent the data and

user-programmed settings from being erased from the memory, when the AC cord is accidentally disconnected

or in case of power failure. Once installed, the batteries will last approximately one year before needing

replacement. At this time, the “ ” symbol will appear on the display to indicate the batteries are low and must

be replaced within two days. If the no battery symbol “ ” appears, you must install the batteries at once.

Install three new “AA” batteries according to the procedure shown below with the AC cord connected and the

mode switch set to the REG position:

1. Push the printer cover forward and detach it.

Be careful with the paper cutter, so as not to cut yourself.

2. Open the battery compartment cover next to the paper roll cradle.

Initializing the cash register

In order for your cash register to operate properly, you must initialize it before programming for the first

time. Follow this procedure.

1. Insert the manager (MA) key into the mode switch and turn it to the REG

position.

2. Insert the plug into the AC outlet. The buzzer will sound three times.

IMPORTANT: This operation must be performed without batteries installed.

3. The cash register has now been initialized. The register display will show “0.00”

with “ ”.

If the buzzer does not sound when the plug is inserted, the initialization has not been done

successfully. (This will occur when the voltage is still high because you operated the cash register

just before starting initialization.) In this case, wait at least one minute after pulling out the plug,

and insert the plug again.

Find a stable surface where the cash register is not subject to water sources or direct sunlight near an

AC outlet.

Unpack the cash register and make sure all accessories are included. For details of accessories, please refer to

“Specifications” section.

For department 1 to 16, enter a unit price and press a department key. If you use a programmed unit price,

press a department key only.

For department 17 to 32, enter a unit price, press the

key and press a department key. If you use a

programmed unit price, press the

key and press a department key.

When zero is entered, only the sales quantity is

added.

For the optional departments 17 through 32,

press the

key.

• When using the department code entry key

Enter a department(dept.) code and press the

key, then enter a unit price and press the

key again. If

the dept. code is programmed to preset price entry style and a unit price is preset, your cash register will finish

its registration operation.

PLU/subdepartment entries

For another merchandise classification, the cash register provides a maximum of 1200 PLUs/subdepartments.

PLUs are used to call up preset prices by a code entry. Subdepartments are used to classify merchandise into

smaller groups under the departments. Every PLU and subdepartment has a code form 1 to 1200, and should

belong to a department to obtain attributes of that department.

The cash register is pre-programmed to PLU mode and zero for unit price. To use PLU entries, their preset unit

prices should be previously programmed. (Refer to page 33.)

To use subdepartment entries, change to subdepartment mode for the PLU codes.

PRIOR TO PROGRAMMING

Before starting sales entries, you must first program necessary items so that the cash register suits your sales

manner. In this manual, there are three sections, BASIC FUNCTION PROGRAMMING where required items

must be programmed, AUXILIARY FUNCTION PROGRAMMING where you can program for more convenient

use of keys on the keyboard, and ADVANCED FUNCTION PROGRAMMING where various optional

programming features are provided. Find the appropriate features for your needs, and make the necessary

programming.

You can select the language of text (English, French or Spanish) printed on receipts or journals.

For the language selection, please refer to “Language Selection” described later in this section.

Procedure for programming

1. Check to see whether a paper roll is present in the machine. If there is not enough paper on the roll, replace

it with a new one (refer to MAINTENANCE section for the replacement).

2. Put the manager key in the mode switch and turn it to the PGM position.

3. Program necessary items into the cash register.

Every time you program an item, the cash register will print the setting. Please

refer to print samples in each section.

4. If necessary, issue programming reports for your reference.

• On the procedures and key operation examples shown in the programming details, numbers such

as “04262006” indicates the parameter which must be entered using the corresponding numeric

keys.

• Asterisks in the tables shown in the programming details indicate default settings.

2:30 AM, enter 230; and when it is set to 2:30 PM, enter 1430.

In the display, current time is displayed in 12-hour format. For AM time, “ ” and for PM time “ ”

will appear in the rightmost position with the current time. If you want to display time in the 24-hour

format, refer to “Various Function Selection Programming 1” section (Job code 61).

The cash register can support US and Canadian tax systems. If you use the Canadian tax system,

you must first change the tax system, then program the tax rate or tax table and quantity for

doughnut exempt which are described in this section. For changing your cash register’s tax

system, please refer to “Various Function Selection Programming 1” section (job code 70).

Before you can proceed with registration of sales, you must first program the tax that is levied in accordance

with the law of your state. The cash register comes with the ability to program four different tax rates. In most

states, you will only need to program Tax 1. However if you live in an area that has a separate local tax (such

as a Parish tax) or a hospitality tax, the register can be programmed to calculate these separate taxes.

When you program the tax status for a department, tax will be automatically added to sales of items assigned to

the department according to the programmed tax status for the department. You can also enter tax manually.

There are two tax programming methods. The tax rate method uses a straight percentage rate per dollar. The

tax table method requires tax break information from your states or local tax offices. Use the method which is

acceptable in your state. You can obtain necessary data for tax programming from your local tax office.

Tax programming using a tax rate

The percent rate specified here is used for tax calculation on taxable subtotals.

To delete a tax rate, use the following sequence:

s @ v A@

Tax number (1 to 4)

• You do not need to enter the trailing zeros of the tax rate (after the decimal point), but you do

need to enter the decimal for fractions.

• The lowest taxable amount setting is ignored when you select VAT system for Canadian tax.

The tax table (applicable to the add-on tax)

If you are in an area that uses a tax table for tax calculation, you can program the cash register accordingly. Tax

table programming can be performed for Tax 1 through Tax 4.

Sample tax table

New Jersey tax table: 6%

To program a tax table, first make a table like the one shown above right.

From the tax table, calculate the differences between a minimum break point and the next one (A). Then, from

the differences, find irregular cycles (B) and regular cycles (C and D). These cycles will show you the following

items necessary to program the tax table:

T: The tax amount collected on the minimum taxable amount (Q)

Q: The minimum taxable amount

M1: The maximum value of the minimum breakpoint on a regular cycle (C)

We call this point “MAX point.”

M2: The maximum value of the minimum breakpoint on a regular cycle (D)

We call this point “MAX point.”

M: Range of the minimum breakpoint on a regular cycle: difference between Q and M1 or between M1 and M2

The first figure to be entered depends upon whether the difference between a minimum

breakpoint to be entered and the preceding minimum breakpoint is not less than $1.00 or

more than 99¢. When the difference is not less than $1.00, enter “1,” and when it is not more

than 99¢, enter “0” or nothing.

The second figure depends upon whether your tax table is to be programmed as tax table 1,

2, 3 or 4.

*2 If the rate is fractional (e.g. 4-3/8%), then the fractional portion (3/8) would be converted to its decimal

equivalent (i.e. .375) and the resulting rate of 4.375 would be entered. Note that the nominal rate (R) is

generally indicated on the tax table.

If you make an incorrect entry before entering the M in programming a tax table, cancel it with the

key; and if you make an error after entering the M, cancel it with the

key. Then program

again from the beginning.

• Limitations to the entry of minimum breakpoints

The register can support a tax table consisting of no more than 72 breakpoints. (The maximum number of

breakpoints is 36 when the breakpoint difference is $1.00 or more.) If the number of breakpoints exceeds the

When setting the tax, consider the minimum breakpoint corresponding to unprovided tax to be the same as the

one corresponding to the tax provided on a large amount.

Sample tax table Modification of the left tax table

Example 8%

From the modified tax table above;

AUXILIARY FUNCTION PROGRAMMING

Merchandise can be classified into a maximum of 99 departments. Items sold with use of the department keys

can later be printed on a report that shows the quantities sold and sales amounts classified by department. The

data is useful for making purchasing decisions and other store operations. Departments can be assigned to

articles whose prices were set using PLU/subdepartment function.

When using a department key, you must set the parameters to specify the department status, such as positive

or negative department. Prices can be assigned directly to departments for frequently purchased items, which

enables you to enter the prices by simply pressing the department keys or dept. code entries.

Department status

To program another department, start from the beginning without pressing the

key.

Tax status (taxable 1 through 4 / non-taxable)

• When any entry of a taxable department is made in a transaction, tax is automatically computed according to

the associated tax table or rate.

SICS (Single Item Cash Sale)

• If an entry of a department programmed for SICS is made first, the sale will be finalized as a cash sale as

soon as the department key is pressed. If the entry is made after entering a department not programmed for

SICS, the sale will not be finalized until the

key is pressed.

Entry digit limit

• Set the number of allowable digits for the maximum entry amount for each department. The limit is effective

for operations in the REG mode and can be overridden in the MGR mode.

Preset unit price

To program another department, start from the beginning without pressing the

key.

Even if a department is not programmed to allow the entry of preset unit prices in functional

programming, the department is automatically changed to allow the entry of preset unit prices by

this programming entry.

The PLU function allows speedy key entries whereby a price is automatically called up when a code is entered.

The subdepartment is a kind of “open PLU”, which requires you to enter a price after the PLU code is entered. A

maximum of 1200 PLU/subdepartment settings are possible. Each one belongs to a department and acquires

the department’s parameters (tax status, SICS and sign).

The cash register is preprogrammed so all 1200 codes are assigned as PLUs associated with department 1 and

preset unit price “0”.

The register allows you to program the text for clerk names, department item names, PLU/subdepartment item

names, and so on, if necessary. There are two ways for programming text: using character keys on the

keyboard or entering character codes with numeric keys on the keyboard.

Using character keys on the keyboard

You can enter characters according to the small figures printed in the lower right position of the key tops. For

the layout, please refer to “Keyboard” section on page 5.

The following are used as control keys for character entry:

Toggles between upper-case and lower-case letters. By default, the upper-case letter is selected.

Once the

key is pressed, you are locked in for entering lower-case letters. “_” lights up at the

SHIFT position of the display when lower-case letters entry is selected.

Press the

key to enter numeric characters. For example to enter “1”, press the

and

key. If you press the

key without pressing the

key, the cash register goes to character codes

entry mode.

Once the

key is pressed, you are locked in for entering numeric characters. “_” lights up at the

NUMBER position of the display when numeric characters entry is selected.

Toggles between single-size and double-size characters. By default, the single-size character is

selected. Once the

key is pressed, you are locked in for entering double size characters. “_” lights

up at the DC position of the display when double-size characters entry is selected.

Backs up the cursor, erasing the character to the left.

Entering character codes with numeric keys on the keyboard

Numerals, letters and symbols are programmable by entering the character code and the

key. (If numeric

characters entry is selected, that is, “_” lights up at the NUMBER position of the display, press the

key to

release it.) Set the alphanumeric character code table on the next page. By doing this, you can program

characters other than those on the key tops.

• Double-size characters can be made by entering the character code 253.

• All three digits of the character code MUST be entered (even if it starts with zero).

To program the word “SHARP” in double-size characters

When you press an appropriate number key (job code number) and press the

key for text entry just after you

start programming with the

key, the cash register will be automatically ready for text entry.

Listed below is an overview of what you can program and the allowable number of single sized characters for

each text entry.

• Department text 12 characters

• PLU text (item label) 12 characters

• Function text 8 characters

• Logo message 6 lines and 24 characters for each line

ADVANCED PROGRAMMING

The register number and consecutive numbers are printed on every receipt or journal.

When your store has two or more registers, it is practical to set separate register numbers for their identification.

The consecutive number is increased by one each time a receipt is issued or when a journal print occurs.

For consecutive number programming, enter a number (max. 4 digits) that is one less than the desired starting

number.

The cash register provides the electronic journal (EJ) function. By default, a maximum of 2000 lines can be

stored in memory. If you want to store more journal data, you can expand to a maximum of 3000 lines, although

the maximum number of PLUs is decreased to 200 codes because the memory is shared with PLU settings.

You can also program various options for EJ, such as availability of EJ memory nearly full warning, availability of

printing EJ data during a transaction, data type to be stored in memory, and printing format.

For reading journal data, refer to “EJ REPORT READING AND RESETTING” (page 60).

EJ memory type

When this procedure is executed, EJ data is cleared, and PLU data (programming data and sales

data) are reset to the default after all data is cleared even if the same memory type is selected.

*A: 0 for EJ 2000 lines and PLU 1200 codes (default)

Temporary EJ printing during a transaction

• If selecting “yes”, you can print journal data of a current transaction recorded in EJ memory by pressing the

key during the transaction. To realize this function completely, the cash register is programmed to

receipt printing and set Receipt ON/OFF function to OFF.

PGM mode operation records type

• The header information only is printed during the program reading operation.

The header information only is printed for X/Z reports.

(Receipt sample for Header Information only)

Action when EJ memory area is full

• By default, when the memory for EJ becomes nearly full, the cash register shows decimal points at the 8th

and 9th positions of the display (EJ memory nearly full message), and the cash register keeps storing new

data while erasing the oldest data. When “0” is selected, the cash register will no longer show EJ memory

nearly full message. When “2” is selected, the cash register shows EJ memory nearly full message and when

the memory is totally full, the cash register locks the sales/data entry with a display of the memory full

message “ ”. You will only be able to issue an EJ report.

EJ REPORT READING AND RESETTING

The cash register provides an electronic journal (EJ) function. This function is intended to record the journal

data in a memory instead of journal paper, and print the data as an EJ report. The register records the journal

data in REG, PGM, VOID, X1/Z1 and X2/Z2 modes. By default, a maximum of 2000 lines are stored in the

memory, but you can expand it to 3000 lines. For details of EJ programming, please refer to “Electronic Journal

Programming” section (page 45).

Printing journal data on the way of a transaction

You can print journal data of a current transaction recorded in EJ memory by pressing the

key during the

transaction.

This function is valid when the printing style is programmed to receipt, and the receipt ON/OFF

function is set to OFF.

• Sample print

Reading and resetting the electronic journal data (Issuing EJ report)

You can read the journal data stored in the EJ memory in the journal format by executing the following

procedure in the X1/Z1 or OP X/Z mode.

• Sample EJ report

• On the EJ memory, a maximum of 2000 (or 3000, if

programmed) lines of data can be stored. When executing all

data reading, all of the data stored in the EJ memory will be

printed. To save paper, compression print is available.

• To stop reading or resetting the data, turn the mode switch to

“MGR” position. The data will not be erased when resetting.

• When printing is performed continuously, the printing may be

intermitted several seconds. After the intermission, the printing

will be restarted.

OPERATOR MAINTENANCE

When power is lost, the machine retains its memory contents and all information on sales entries.

• When power failure is encountered in register idle state or during an entry, the

machine returns to normal operation after power recovery.

• When power failure is encountered during a printing cycle, the register prints

“========” and then carries out the correct printing procedure after power

recovery. (See the sample print.)

If the printer runs out of paper, the printer will stall, and “PPPPPPPPPP” will appear on the display. Key entries

will not be accepted. Refer to section 5 in this chapter, install a new roll, then press the

key. The printer will

print the power failure symbol and resume printing.

If the print roller arm is not locked, the printer stalls, “H” will appear on the extreme left of the display. Key

entries will not be accepted. Push down the arm until it is securely locked, then press the

key. The printer

will print the power failure symbol and resume printing.

Cautions in handling the printer

• Avoid dusty and humid environments, direct sunlight and iron powder. (A permanent magnet and

electromagnet are used in this machine.)

• Never pull the paper when the print roller arm is locked. First lift up the arm, and then remove the paper.

• Never touch the surface of the print head and print roller.

Cautions in handling the recording paper (thermal paper)

• Use only the paper specified by SHARP.

• Do not unpack the thermal paper until you are ready to use it.

• Avoid heat. The paper will color at around 70°C.

• Avoid dusty and humid storage places. Avoid direct sunlight.

• The printed text on the paper can discolor under conditions of high humidity and temperature, exposure to the

direct sunlight, contact with glue, thinner or a freshly copied blueprint, and heat caused by friction from

scratching or other such means.

• Be very careful when handling the thermal paper. If you want to keep a permanent record, copy the printed text

with a photocopier.
