Thanks guys. Think I'll give it a try as I can get a used one pretty cheap and there's a user manual in pdf on the Wincor Nixdorf web site that looks as though it's got the info in it. Anyway, I'm sure they'd be able to give me the info if it isn't there. I reckon it'll work because it says it's jus...

Wincor Nixdorf BA63 Pole Display

Hi again all.

Anyone know if the Nixdorf BA63 will work with DHPOS or is it a 'specialised' Nixdorf item?

Looks to me to be just a serial pole display but who am I to know.. :?

:D You guys are a scream.... If you do what I said which is run the report so it appears on the screen you'll see that the total is across to the right. And that's how it then prints, so the total is off the side of the paper. It's got nothing to do with whether you've got your printer's tyres pumpe...

Little thing I've noticed which is a slight problem with a narrow receipt printer printout. When you print out the inventory value report, the total figure is set off to the right. You can see it on the screen but it's too far off to appear on the printout. Not the end of the world - but it would be...

Parallel Thermal Printer

:D Wow - I'm new to this but so are a lot of other folks who might appreciate seeing this. Just got hold of a little Citizen CBM1000 printer off Ebay for peanuts. We have been setting up the system (stock, prices) and experimenting with a page printer that meant we had to use Aprint. So we had delay...

Touch Screen Till/EPOS System

Anyone had experience of such a system? Does it have to have special software to make it run or would POS run on it?

There's an Epson IM-300 on eBay just now but I don't know whether I should be interested in it or not :roll:

Chris, have you got printer port set to 'File'. Then so long as you have Aprint in the main POS folder, start it up before you start running POS (latest and IBM's versions come up as a small grey window with your default printer showing) and have already CFGd POS to print, it should run with no prob...

Thanks a lot guys. Yes, it's a brand new HP Deskjet 5740 USB. Not the ideal choice but Mrs Golf Pro wants to be able to create and print little promo brochures for the shop. There's a very nice TM-U220PA on eBay right now but it's a bit too early to go for it until they've used the system for a whil...

;) aha...that got it down to about 20 seconds. Quite an improvement - thanks a lot for that. On another PC (faster cpu) with a parallel printer there was hardly any delay at all. Is the problem to do with USB dya think? Are other people getting the sort of delay I am? Hopefully when my pal the Golf ...

Hi all, have set up POS to be used in a small Golf Pro shop and I'm very pleased with it. Because of the (old) barcode scanner I'm using, the system is being run in Windows Me and I'm using a new small HP inkjet connected via USB for the time being at least. Being USB I had to use Aprint to get outp...
