(continued from Point of Sale Operations)
Use the following tips as a general guideline and may vary depending on equipment used. Please consult you installer for specific instructions.
You should consult with your Reseller for proper procedures for printer operation when changing paper. However, the following is a general rule when changing the paper in a kitchen or bar printer: do NOT turn off the POWER to the printer; instead, turn the printer "Off-Line" by pressing the button labeled "On-Line." The light above the button will dim to indicate that the printer is Off-Line. After a new roll of paper has been installed, press the "On-Line" button again to return the printer On-Line. Following this procedure will ensure that orders that are "Sent" to the printer while the paper is being changed will immediately be printed once the printer is returned on-line.
IMPORTANT: Never turn-off power to the point of sale stations while the Point of Sale module is running. Doing so may result in losing and/or corrupting your sales data.
Prior to turning off the Point of Sale stations, always press [EXIT]. Restaurant Manager will return control to the Windows operating system. Once control is returned to Windows, you may safely turn off power to the station.
NOTE : Restaurant Manager may ask for a password to EXIT the POS program.
