All the cash registers in this section are currently in use in retail outlets across the country. Retail cash registers vary in function significantly, hence the number we have listed here. The cash register that best suits your business will depend on a variety of factors.
For example, if you are
short on counter space and not too fussed about lots of functions then the smallest footprint cash register we offer is the
Casio SE-G1. The downside of this cash register is that it only has a small plastic drawer, the department descriptions cannot be edited and the printer cannot be switched off.
If your key requirement is to have a
full size (8 coin/4 note) metal cash drawer with removable insert tray then you could do a lot worse than the
Sharp XE-A207.
What about
departments or categories of sale? Each of our retail tills will have department buttons, but how many do you need? The SE-G1 has 8 uneditable department buttons, all the other registers have editable department buttons (so the department name can be edited and appear on screen, till receipt & reports) as follows:
Casio SE-S100 has 12, the
Sharp XE-A207 has 16, the
Sharp XE-A307 has 20, the
Casio SR-S500 has 25 and the
SR-S4000 has 30. The two with the most are the
Casio SR-C550 and
SR-C4500, which both have 72.
Another function to consider is the
number of printers. All retail cash registers will have at least 1 printer, which can be used for either receipt mode or journal mode, if you need receipt and journal you really need a machine with 2 printers. Some of the 1 printer cash registers will have an electronic journal (EJ), but these aren't as good as a 'live' real time actual journal roll. Cash registers with two printers are the
Sharp XE-A307, the
SR-S4000 and the
SR-C4500.
