RECEIPT ON/OFF SWITCH ([RECEIPT ON/OFF])
This switch has two positions available: 'OFF' and 'ON' positions. When in the 'OFF' , no receipt is issued from the register and
sales are printed on the journal only. When the switch is set to the 'ON' position, sales are printed on both receipt roll and journal roll, then a receipt is issued which is handed to the
customer,
Alternating the switch position during a registration will not result an error. In this case, the position at the time of the registration starting will rule whether a receipt is issued or not. When a reset (Z) report is taken, however, the data will be
pirnted also on the receipt roll regardless of the switch posit ion.

RECEIPT FFED KEY ([RF])

This key is used to feed the receipt paper. As long as this key
is depressed, the receipt paper keeps on feeding. Receipt feeding is possible even during a sale as standard feature. This key functions at any Mode Lock position except "OFF".

RECEIPT POST-ISSUE KEY ([RCPT ISSUE])

To operate, depress the [RCPT ISSUE] key without a numeric entry and with the [RECEPT ON/OFF] switch held to the OFF position. The receipt for the last sale is then issued, with only the sale total

another sale has already been under way.

cannot invalidate the designated item.
To operate, depress the [RTN MDSE] before or after the amount entry, and then depress the department key from which the amount should be subtracted.
ITEM CORRECT KEY ([ITEM CORR])
This key is used to delete the last item within a transaction. Depressing this key once will remove the last item from the bill,
printing a line through that item on the receipt and journal.
The item-correct funtion is effective even when a numeric entry and a [C] key depression are already performed between the item-to-be-corrected and the [ITEM CORR] key depression. However,
if any other key-in operation including an error comes inbetween, the item-correct will not function for the last item any longer.
The [ITEM CORR] key may function to correct any last item entered
through a department, [%-]key. But a department item entered with the [RTN MDSE] key cannot be item-corrected.

PERCENT DISCOUNT KEY ([%-])

This key is used to enter a discount calculated on a percentage
rate. When this key is depressed after a department item, the
discount amount is calculated on the preset or manual-entry rate
and subtracted from the department item amount. This key can also be operated in the same way after pressing the [ST] key if the percent discounting is performed for the sale total.
A percent rate can be preset on this key; however, if another rate
is entered through the numeric keyboard prior to the depression of the [%-] key, the entered rate prevails. The preset rate will be active by a simple depression of the [%-] key.
The percent discounting is effective only once for each department
item and subtotal amount.

ST
AT/TL
This key is used to obtain the subtotal amount during a sale. When this key is depressed after all the items have been rung up, the subtotal of the sale is printed and displayed,

first depression only will print and display the subtotal; further
depressions will only display but not print the subtotal amount.
CASH AMOUNT TENDER / TOTAL KEY ([AT/TL])
This key is used to finalize a cash sale.
This key can be programmed to be used as one of the following three types of keys:
1. AMOUNT TENDER KEY If so programmed, this key requires a tendered amount
entry prior to depressing the key. The tax on the sale
is calculated and printed (if any) with the "TX" symbol, the sale total including the tax is printed with the "TL" symbol, the cash tendered amount is printed with the "AT" symbol, and the change due with the "CG" symbol (if any)
on separate lines.
When the tendered amount is less than the sale total, all
the printing sequence above will be the same except that the balance due is displayed (not printed) instead of the
change due. In this case, the sale is not yet finalized; and another cash tendering must be done, or the [Chg] key may be depressed if the balance due is processed as an alternative method of payment.
When the sale total is negative, as in some cases with
returned merchandise entries, the [AT/TL] must be depressed without a prior amount entry, as described in "2. TOTAL KEY" below,
2. TOTAL KEY
If so programmed, this key is depressed without a prior amount entry for sale finalization. The tax on the sale is calculated and printed, and the sale total including the tax is printed with the "CA" symbol.

the tax is printed with the as well as the "CA" symbol. In this case, the operator must refund the
amount in cash to the customer.

If so programmed, this key will function as TENDER KEY (as described in 1 above) when any prior amount is
entered, and will function as TOTAL KEY (as described in 2 above) when depressed without an amount entry.

finalization instead of [AT/TL] • This key operates the same as the [AT/TL] key when it is programmed as "2. TOTAL KEY".
This key can be combined with the [AT/TL] key if a payment for the sale is split by cash and charge. In such cases, the [Chg] key must be depressed as the last key to finalize the sale. (If the
[AT/TL] key is programmed as Type 2, TOTAL KEY, this sp 1 it-tender
ing operation will not be allowed.)
The [Chg] key can even finalize a negative sale total.
TAXABLE TOTAL KEY ( [iXBL TL] )
This key is used to obtain the contents of the main itemizer £_Ius
tax due. The amount will only display but not print.
