This new feature will prevent a cashier form disabling the POS printer when there is a physical printer malfunction. Currently the POS provides the option to allow a cashier to complete a transaction without printing a receipt. This exposes the retailer to a potential loss prevention issue. This feature provides improved loss prevention control.

Effects on Configuration

To enable this feature, set the ALLOWPRINTERDISABLE in POS.INI to N (default is Y). When enabled, the POS will no longer ask if the cashier would like to disable the printer, instead, the POS will display the error message and attempt to re-initialize the printer once the cashier acknowledges the error by pressing any key.
