To install the cash drawer:

Connect the cash drawer to the receipt printer using the cash drawer cable provided. The larger end of the cable plugs into the cash drawer, and the smaller end of the cable plugs into the receipt printer.

Opening the cash drawer

You can open the cash drawer manually using the included keys, or wirelessly from the iPad. The iPad connects to the cash drawer through the receipt printer, and the cash drawer opens automatically after each sale, or if you tap No Sale from the Shopify POS app.

Note

You must connect the cash drawer to the same wireless network as your iPad.

Common Issues

Avoid common problems by making sure that:

• the cash drawer's cable is plugged into the receipt printer

• the receipt printer has paper

• the receipt printer is properly paired with the iPad

• you're using the cash drawer cable you received in the hardware package to connect the cash drawer to the printer.

  If you tap No Sale on the products and cart screen and the cash drawer doesn't open, this is likely a problem with the cash drawer cable. Contact our support team.
