First, we will cover the simple troubleshooting steps:
1. Is the printer powered on?
2. Is there paper in the printer?
3. Is the green READY light on?

Does your computer see the printer?
All printers used within Cash Register Express are set up as Windows printers.
1. Open the Devices and Printers Menu within Windows and check to see that the printer is listed under the Printers Section
NOTE: Your printer name may differ (TM-T88V, TM-T20, etc.)
2. If the printer is listed, but grayed out, then the machine does not see the printer. Please contact the Client Services Team at support@vinsuite.com or 707-253-7400 Ext 6 for help getting the printer back online.
