I have configured Receipt Print Off option, since I dont want to print receipt for every sale but if the customer wants it then I turn printing on from the Payment Screen.
But my issue is now I have to manually open CASH DRAWER everytime I do not print.
My CASH DRAWER is connect to the printer.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
The cash drawer open command is in the Printer.Ticket script, and some other scripts. But, it only works when you use ESC/POS for your receipt printer.
Printers controlled by Windows device drivers, have their own open drawer routine. Therefore, when you disable the receipt printer, you also don't send an open drawer command.
There are a few ways around this:
Change to ESC/POS configuration and remove Windows printer drivers.
Purchase a cash drawer kick device and set it up as a second printer, just to kick the drawer open. BT-100U about $12.50 USD
Print a single line to kick the drawer open. Maybe have a line of text stating "Drawer Open Only".
