To print a receipt on the Sam4s ER-260EJ, press the "CASH" button to get a printout of the last transaction. This only works for the most recent sale. To enable or disable automatic receipt printing, use the "receipt on/off" button in REG mode.
To print total day sales: 1. Choose the NET option to accumulate daily net sales totals. 2. Use the appropriate report function (e.g., clerk or PLU report) to print totals. 3. Set "SKIP ZERO TOTALS" to N if you want all totals printed, including zeros. 4. Select Y for "PRINT MEDIA TOTALS" to include payment types in the report.
These settings allow the register to generate detailed reports of total sales for the day.

Do you have a question about the ER-260EJ and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
how do I print a receipt and a total day sale
To print a receipt on the Sam4s ER-260EJ, press the "CASH" button to get a printout of the last transaction. This only works for the most recent sale. To enable or disable automatic receipt printing, use the "receipt on/off" button in REG mode.
To print total day sales:
1. Choose the NET option to accumulate daily net sales totals.
2. Use the appropriate report function (e.g., clerk or PLU report) to print totals.
3. Set "SKIP ZERO TOTALS" to N if you want all totals printed, including zeros.
4. Select Y for "PRINT MEDIA TOTALS" to include payment types in the report.
These settings allow the register to generate detailed reports of total sales for the day.
