Casio Products: Electronic Cash Registers

Casio has 11 different kind of cash registers for the UK market, divided in two series: the SE-series and the TE-series.

Both series have basic keyboards instead of an alphanumeric one, although some of the machines have keyboards with direct buttons for specific products and others are only with basic numeric keyboards.

Anyway, both series are really basic models but some machines have more options than others.

If you own a small business, without many items sold per day, these machines possess everything you need. They have all the basic functions to operate a business efficiently.

As the options differ from one machine to another, it is good to be aware of all the features that you need to check before considering buying a specific model.

Read this a small checklist of features that you need to choose or not for your future cash register:

• Number of products. It is important to consider how many products you want to be able to save in your cash register. The number of PLUs (Price Look-Up code) available differs for each machine. By typing these codes into the machine, you will get information about specific products.
• Display. Do you want a display only for the seller or also for the customers? Customer’s display can improve the quality of the service. How many lines do you want to see on the seller display? Do you need to see a lot of information?
• Size of the drawer. Do you want a compartment for receipts and cheques?
• Printer. Consider which paper and what kind of printer you want, either advanced or basic? Noise, speed, visual will differ from it. If you want to have your logo on the receipts or if you need to write text, then you must have a more advanced printer than the basic ones. Also, if you have a busy store it might be better to have two stations, it will save you time as it prints both receipts for you and the customer in the same time.
• Size. How much space do you have available on your counter? Double check that the chosen model will fit.
• Power source. What kind of power source does the machine need? If you need to go to events or some other activities off from your local, then it might be good to have the possibility to use the cash register with a battery.
• Interface. Think of what kind of devices you need to plug in on your cash register and check if that is possible. Do you need a barcode scanner or an external printer?
• Keyboard. What would be the easiest and fastest for your business: numeric, alphanumeric, touch screen?
• Colour. Some of the cash registers that Casio offers are available in different colours, which is nice if you want to make it fit the design of your local perfectly.
