Congratulations on receiving your new equipment. This Quick Start Guide will assist you with self-installing the Star Cash Drawer and connecting it to your Star printer.
Set Up the Cash Drawer
Installing the Star cash drawer is simple, as outlined in the four-step process below. The Star cash drawer should only be used with a certified Star printer. Please reference the Certified Hardware article in the knowledge base for more information on certified hardware.
- The Star cash drawer has a bottom exit cable with the interface port located on the underside of the cash drawer. Begin by flipping the cash drawer upside-down.
- Plug the side of the supplied interface cable labeled “cash drawer” into the interface port on the bottom rear of the cash drawer.
- Then, plug the side of the supplied interface cable labeled “printer” into the printer’s peripheral drive connector on the printer's rear panel.
- Important: The supplied interface cable is not bi-directional. You must plug the proper side of the cord into the correct device.
