Tax Table Programming - Sharp XE-A107 Operation/Reference Manual

Maintenance
Batteries
This cash register displays a low battery symbol
( ) when the batteries installed get low, and
displays a no battery symbol ( ) when batteries
are extremely low or batteries are not installed.
When the low battery symbol is displayed,
replace the batteries with new ones as soon as
possible. The existent batteries will be dead in
about two days.
When the no battery symbol is displayed,
replace the batteries immediately. Otherwise, if
the AC adapter plug is disconnected or a power
failure occurs, all the programmed settings will be
reset to the default settings and any data stored
in memory will be cleared.
Improper use of batteries could cause them
C
to burst or leak, which might damage the
interior of the register. Please take the
following precautions:
• Be sure that the positive (+) and negative
(-) poles of each battery are oriented
properly.
• Never mix batteries of different types.
• Never mix old batteries and new ones.
• Never leave dead batteries in the battery
compartment.
• Remove the batteries if you plan not to
use the register for long periods.
• Should a battery leak, clean out the
battery compartment immediately, taking
care not to let the battery fluid come into
direct contact with your skin.
• If an incorrect battery is used, it may
explode or leak.
• For battery disposal, follow the relevant
law or regulation in your country.
Replacement
1. Be sure the cash register is plugged in.
2. Turn the mode switch to the REG position.
3. Remove the printer cover.
The paper cutter is mounted on the printer
C
cover. Be careful not to cut yourself.

2-11. Tax Table Programming

The tax table method requires tax break information from your state or local tax offices.
Use the method which is acceptable in your state.
You can obtain necessary data for tax programming from your local tax office.
If you are in an area that uses a tax table for tax calculation, you can program the cash register
accordingly.
Tax table programming can be performed for Tax 1 and Tax 2.
Sample tax table 1:
Rate = 6% (*1)
Amount of Sale

(Breakpoint)
$0.01 $0.10 $0.00

Turn the mode switch to the Z/PGM
position and use the following sequence
to program the tax table.

4. Open the battery cover next to the paper roll
cradle and remove the old batteries.
5. Install three new LR6 ("AA" size) batteries.
Be sure that the positive (+) and negative
D
(-) poles of each battery are facing in the
proper direction for installation.
6. Confirm the no battery symbol " " lights off.
7. Close the battery cover.
8. Replace the printer cover.
Paper Roll
When a dye appears on the paper roll, it is time to
replace the paper roll with new one. Be sure to use
the paper roll specified in "Specifications" section.
Replacement
1. Set the mode switch to the REG position.
2. Remove the printer cover.
3. Remove the paper roll. Then remove the
remaining paper by pressing
F
4. Open the paper guide and set a new paper roll
in the paper roll cradle as per the diagram.

If tax is not shown for every cent, use the breakpoint of the next highest tax

amount for each missing breakpoint. In sample tax table 2, tax is not shown
for .05, .07, .08, .13, .15 and .16. Likewise, the corresponding breakpoints are
not shown. To complete the table, simply insert the next highest breakpoint
after each missing figure. Therefore, the breakpoint for tax .05 would be .89,
tax .07 and .08 would be 1.11, etc.
5. Insert the paper straight into the paper inlet,
and press . The paper then feeds through
F
and appears in the print area.
6. Close the paper guide.
7. Replace the printer cover.
Pass the paper end through the openings of
the printer cover. Be very careful not to cut
yourself on the manual cutter.
Replacing the Ink Roller
When printing becomes faded, replace the existing
ink roller with a new one available from SHARP.
• Be sure to use an ink roller available from
C
SHARP. The use of any other ink rollers
could cause troubles in the printer. Never
pour ink to the ink roller.
• After opening the parcel, install it soon.
1. Remove the printer cover.
2. Pull the ink roller handle upward to remove the
ink roller.
.
3. Install a new ink roller.
4. Replace the printer cover.
(*1) Tax rate: (2 digits integer and 4 digits decimal )
If rate has decimal value, decimal point is entered by
key .
(*2) Cycle (0.01 to 99.99): (Max. 4 digits)
A tax table cycle is the repeating pattern of the tax rate
found in your states tax table/chart.
In tax table 1, where the 1st cycle begins ($0.11) and the
2nd cycle begins ($1.11) is a $1.00 tax cycle. Tax cycle can
vary from state-to-state, please check your local tax table for
the exact cycle. Thus, the tax cycle can be determined by
simply taking the differences between the first breakpoint of
the cycle and the first breakpoint of the next cycle (example,
$1.11 -$0.11 = $1.00).
(*3) Minimum taxable amount: (Max. 4 digits)
Smallest amount for which tax must be collected. If
amounts $0.01 to $0.10 are not taxed, its value is 11 (for
$0.11).
(*4) Breakpoints (0.01 to 99.99): (Max. 4 digits)
The tax amount increases in stages. The value of a
taxable subtotal at which the tax amount changes is
called a breakpoint. The difference between the start
and end sales range. A group of breakpoint differences
is repeated at regular intervals and each of these
intervals is called a cycle. A maximum of 18 breakpoints
(for tax types 1 and 2), between 0.01 to 99.99, can be
programmed. Intervals between breakpoints must be less
than one dollar.

In Case of a Power Failure or
v
The following situations may arise during a power
failure or paper jam. (Make sure that batteries are
correctly installed.) As the power is recovered or
a paper jam is removed, the register will resume
normal operation with a next key operation.
When a power failure occurs with the register
turned on or during a computation process:
Upon power recovery, the register resumes
operation from the point of failure.
When a power failure occurs during printing
of transaction data:
Upon power recovery, the register prints
"############" and resumes printing of the
transaction data.
When a power failure occurs during printing
of an X (reading) or Z (reading and resetting)
report:
Upon power recovery, the register prints
"############" and resumes printing of the
report.
