Adding An Automatic Cash Drawer
Lifesaver has built in support for an automatic cash drawer. It knows to send the "open drawer"
command, when appropriate (cash sales, not credit card or checks) Some shops use a cash drawer in
conjunction with a Star brand receipt printer. The PC connects to the printer, and the cash drawer
physically plugs into the printer. The printer is what powers the drawer to open.
LifeSaver also supports some USB drawers, which connect directly to the PC.
note: The cash drawer has rubber feet and can be set up on top of your counter, or bolted
below it with the optional bracket. Make sure you order the appropriate cable for your printer.
See APPENDIX A for suggested models, vendor, and current pricing.
Shortcut: To manually open the drawer anywhere in Lifesaver, hit CONTROL + D
