Introduction

There are two free methods to open your cash drawer:

• Print a receipt using your receipt printer. You will need to make sure your receipt printer has the software downloaded to your computer, receipt printer is connected to your computer via USB and the cash drawer is connected to your receipt printer. You will also need to make sure your cash drawer is configured to trigger when a receipt is printed from the receipt printer. Please see our article on Receipt Printers for more information.
  
  
• Or use a key to open the drawer.
