The Fiscal Printer Panel allows the user to test the Fiscal Printer device connected to the system. When the user clicks the Fiscal Printer Button, the Diagnostics opens the Fiscal Printer and displays a variety of tests depending on the printer attached. The information below describes all the possible Fiscal Printer tests, although the specific tests provided to the user may be a subset of those described here.
One important note is that the Fiscal Printer can only be added via the "Add RS-232" button for RS-232, or the "Add Fiscal Printer" for the RS-485 Fiscal Printers. The USB Fiscal Printer is not currently supported.
Testing the Fiscal Printer

- SJ Station - This button sends a command to the Fiscal Printer to print a the Fiscal information to the Journal Station.
- Test DI Pattern - The DI Test is similar to the Receipt Station test, except it is for the Slip/Impact Station. This test accepts a check or similar sized paper, and prints a sequence of characters to the Slip/Impact Station.
- MICR Read - The MICR Read test allows the user to scan a check through the MICR. The scanned information is presented to back to the user for verification.
- Cut Paper - The Cut Paper test simply sends a command to the Fiscal Printer to cut the paper in the Receipt Station.
