75 EAdvanced OperationsPrinting slipTo perform batch printing on the slip printer, you must first use the memory allocation operation (see program 5mode in the dealer’s manual) to reserve slip buffer memory. The capacity of the slip buffer memory is determinedby the number of units of slip buffer memory reserved by the memory allocation operation.The register can be programmed to check the status of the registration buffer memory whenever slip batch printingis performed, and sound an alarm when the buffer memory is almost full. The alarm sounds when there are 12 linesor less remaining, and once it starts to sound, the only operation you can perform is the cancel operation or opera-tions using one of the following keys.• (cash / amount tendered key) operation• (charge key) operation• (check tendered key) operation• (deposit key) operation• (new balance key) operation• (subtotal key) operationYou must perform one of above operations when the registration buffer alarm sounds. Any other operations resultsin an error.Printing slipsThe cash register can be connected to the optional SP-1300 slip printer, which features an automatic feed functionand automatic back feed function.• Automatic feed functionThis function makes it possible to program the number of line feeds that should be inserted from the normal printstart position before starting slip printing of a new slip. Even if line feeds are programmed for this function, theyare not inserted for validation printing, check endorsement printing, and check printing performed using the slipprinter. Note also that line feeds are not inserted automatically at the beginning of a second slip when the transac-tion requires printing that extends from one slip to another.• Automatic back feed functionThis function performs automatic back feed following slip printing, validation printing, and endorsement printingon the slip printer. The slip paper is released once the back feed operation is complete.• Manual feed function (slip feed / release key: assigned to the register’s keyboard using the program 4 mode)can be used for manual feed of the slip paper. You perform manual feed by inputting a value for the number oflines (up to two digits in the range of 1 to 99) and then press .• Manual back feed function (slip back feed / release key: assigned to the register’s keyboard using theprogram 4 mode) can be used for manual back feed of the slip paper. Manual back feed can be performed byinputting a value for the number of lines (up to two digits in the range of 1 to 99) and then press FEED/RELEASE>.You can print slips using automatic or manual batch printing. The slip print operation can be performed in REG1,REG2, and RF modes only.Finalizing a registration without inserting a slip paper into the slip printer when the register is programmed as“slip paper insertion into slip printer compulsory before finalizing registration” produces an error.
