Ive changed the topic to V5 Question as this isnt an issue with V5, you have a configuration issue in your template somewhere

what are the codes under your VAT number at the bottom of your receipt? i assume one is a drawer kick code? whats the other, it could be that that number 2 is the first digit of one of those codes being displayed for some reason

3

Guessing the other is meant to be a cut code maybe.
Move your kick code to a second template, that way you can have more control and will mean print bill wont always open the drawer and you could use that print job on a automation command for a no sale/drawer open button for manager/admin.

4

no I just have two kick codes there since I have never had the time to remove one. the cut the paper. I have been asked to have it to kick the draw open everytime. So I found it easier putting it into the code. Do yyou think it is the kick code doing that?

5

My guess is the <cut> command is the culprit. Remove it and see what happens.

6

You are right, however it doesnt cut the receipt anymore. How would I get it to cut without that command?

7

try putting cut command above de kick code or go to properties of your printer and there should be a tab where you can configure it to cut paper after every print

8

THat didnt seem to cut at all still. Only works underneath the kick code

9

then try the properties settings that should work :wink:

normally would show you or explain more detailed but dont have my pc with me atm so cant look it up

<XCT>27,7,10,50,7

If it is for beep this looks like incorrect. Can you try removing this?

PS: 50 is decimal code for 2 character.

What is the printer model you are using?
I once had a chinese printer that did something similar… I ended up giving up on it and just roll with it hahaha

The printer is a star tsp100eco
