How do you get the cash register to work? I can open the cash drawer but since December the 25th after buying the cash register cant turn it on.

So far the register comes on by pushing the on button. However, the machine is solar power operated. Right beside the digital display is a small panel that receives the light and turns it into power.

The ON button should power it up, but make sure it's charged by a light since it is solar powered. If it doesn't work, I'd return it.

It is solar powered so you may need to set it under a lamp for a few minutes to recharge.

I just push the on button and it comes on. Maybe yours is defective. I would contact seller.

Mine did the exact same thing and was bought at the same time. I took it to a local hardware store and they fixed it (not sure what they did to fix it) then it stopped working again after 2 weeks. I ended up just trashing it and plan to get a new one from a different company. It cost me $25 to get it fixed and it didn't make sense to pay another 25 for it to not work again :(

Hi there I just re packed this machine and returned it to the manufacturer. Iits have had it for less than 3 months and it does not work . The manufacturer says it will repair not replace and I had to pay for the shipping back to Oregon where the repair center is . I do not have any idea how long it will take to fix not did the offer to give me a time frame . My best advice is to NOT but this machine . I know this was not what you asked and I can not respond to that since I just shipped the machine back, but regardless whether it does take Bolivares do not spend you money on this trash .

You would connect the cash drawer cable to the back of this receipt printer. When the printer prints a receipt, the cash drawer automatically opens.

Well I have the same problem. My unit just stopped working. I only used it for a few months and it stopped working. I looked at the other responses and may try to get it fixed. Just don't want to put money into it and perhaps still have it not work.

Mine doesn't open either. Very frustrating. I think a lot of people have the same issue. Hopefully they will sort out their packaging.

I too have the same problem. I just ended up using the drawer with the key because I couldn't get my Epson printer to kick the drawer. Thought it was a problem with my dated POS. Just gave up and kept the drawer anyway because of the great price.

The cash register only lasted a few months before it broke. It wasn't very durable so we didn't have it long enough to find out.

The one first I got after ordering didn't work either. I called the company who sent the machine, and the representative gave me the options I could take. I returned the machine according to what he said and got new one. It took me some time but cost me nothing except the new packing envelope.

I honestly don't remember. I will have to look at it when I get to market. Is this the Bill Starkey I know from South Bend? Stop by my booth (50 & 52) and look it over first hand. I really like this - in fact, I have two, one for each cash register.

It connects to your network to print from your register, but it can only physically connect to one cash drawer. If your register opens the cash drawer instead of using the printer to open it, then you can use as many registers as you would like and all print to that one printer.I know this because I use 2 iPads to print to a single printer on my network, and my square stand opens the cash drawer.

The start button works perfectly on my machine, haven't used many of the processing buttons, but try the reset button, and see if that works. Possibly this is a damaged product.

I am sorry you are having this problem. They are very handy little machines; the one I had before this one lasted almost 15 years. It sounds to me as though your machine is broken. As long as you are pressing the button marked Print, you seem to be doing everything correctly. You need to return the machine. Sorry I could not be more helpful.

Has yours broken? I was just thinking about ordering one. It appears that they have heating element issues with the old one. Maybe I will wait to see if someone orders it for Christmas and posts responses. Let me know what you think of yours.

give it a try, mine has a red button. you can always return the item if it doesn't work.

The same thing happened to me. I think the computer shorted out. I ended up returning the item. Make sure you put the batteries in correctly and then turn it on and off two or three times. That worked for me but it crapped out about three days later.
