Sam4s ER-390M Quick Start Programming Manual

There are a few areas that need planning before you can begin to program the register. These areas are:
1. Keyboard Layout.
There are 60 item keys that can be programmed (keys 1-60).
2. Item Descriptions.
Item descriptions can be up to 12 characters in length.
3. Item price settings. An item can either be open, or preset.
Open:
An open item does not have a specific dollar amount assigned to it. The price of an open item is entered manually. A
good example of an open item would be a daily lunch special that has frequent price changes.
Preset:
A preset item is assigned a specific dollar amount, which can either be taxable or non-taxable.
4. Item groups
A group is where an item(s) reports its totals to. Some group examples are beverages, appetizers, and desserts.
5. Preamble and postamble messages.
Preamble:
The preamble is printed on the top of the receipt and usually includes the name of the store. There are six, sixteen
character preamble lines
Postamble:
The postamble is printed after the transaction totals, i.e. Thank You. There are six, sixteen character postamble lines.
* When you are programming the register, use the C key. During business hours use the REG key for safety purposes. The REG key
does not have access to the programming areas of the register. The key type is located on the head of the key.
