1Register Number and Consecutive Number Programming

Register number and consecutive number are printed on every receipt and journal.

When your store has two or more registers, it is practical to set separate register numbers for identification. The consecutive number is increased by one each time a receipt and/or journal is issued.

For consecutive number programming, enter a number (max. 4 digits) that is one less than the desired starting number.
