1. INTRODUCTION
The DTK53 Desk Terminal Keyboard for receipted fiscal receipts/invoices is fast and easy to operate
and offers high-performance, multi-function solutions for all your business applications.
The terminal is equipped with a liquid crystal screen that can display up to two lines of 16 characters
each. The messages on the display are extremely legible and readily understandable.
The keyboard has been designed to meet the wide-ranging requirements of the sector for which this
machine has been developed, and the section pertaining to the departments allows the appropriate
description of each department to be written on the labels above the corresponding key.
This terminal also incorporates a high-speed, advanced thermal printer whose print quality is always
perfect and which can reproduce graphic images (for example your company logo). The ribbons
utilized by traditional printers have been eliminated, making their annoying, time-consuming
replacement a thing of the past while reducing operating costs.
As stated above, the terminal provides a complete range of functions to meet your business
requirements, including the printing of pre-receipts and fiscal receipts and invoices (while storing in its
memory the number of each as it is issued), management of up to 300 PLUs (pre-stored prices),
storage of fidelity account and credit information for up to 100 clients (accessed automatically through
a simple code), management of meal vouchers according to 30 different“cut” of ticket shared out 10
Company with deferred invoice and the ability to monitor the activity of up to 15 selected users.

2.2.1 Safety Standards
•Use the type of electrical voltage indicated on the printer label.
•Check that the electrical connection that supplies the printer is equipped with a ground
and is protected by a differential switch.
•If the printer is fed using an extension cord, make sure that the overall power
requirements of the connected devices do not exceed the maximum current allowed for
the type of extension cord in use, and, in any case, do not exceed 15 amperes.
•Make sure the printer is always placed on a solid surface. If not, it could fall and be
seriously damaged.
•Do not block the air vents.
•Do not place the printer on cushioned surfaces or in insufficiently-ventilated
environments.
•Position the printer so that its electrical cables are not stepped on.

The first departement is suggested, you can
confirm or change that, then press the button
:
DESCRIPTION 1
dept.
The previously-entered description is displayed
and, with the cursor positioned on the first
letter, use the lower letters on the keyboard to
enter the description (18 characters max.).
DESCRIPTION 1
bar
When a new key is pressed, the entered
character is automatically moved to the left so
that a new character may be keyed in.
If an incorrect character is entered, it can be
canceled using the “C” key.
NOTE
The repeated pressing of this key will
progressively cancel, from right to left, all
previously-entered characters.
This operation can be exited by pressing the
“Client Code” (Esc.) key.
SPECIAL KEYS
The keys on the numeric keyboard have special
functions when used in alpha mode:
( ) ‘ \ ? ^ ! £ $
DOUBLE-WIDTH CHARACTERS
Double-width characters may be entered using
the following key :
before each character in the
description.
When double-width characters
are entered, the display will appear as follows:
description 1:
>B>a>r
i.e., each double-width character in the
description will be preceded on the display by
an arrow ( > ).
NOTE
Remember that each character entered in
double-width mode will, in fact, occupy twice
the space.
Therefore, if you wish to use the double-width
option for a description that can contain a max.
of 18 characters, the total number of double-
width characters must be reduced to 9.
2.2.3 Display
The terminal is equipped with a display as
shown in Figure 1-2.
It is a back-lit, alphanumeric LCD display with
a maximum of 2 lines of 16 characters each
that displays totals and messages.
On request, a phosphorescent alphanumeric
display can be substituted.
2.2.4 Printer
The terminal has a thermal printer to print
transaction data, company data (if
programmed), corporate logo (if programmed)
and any other data that must appear on the
receipt.
The width of the paper roll is 60 mm.
IMPORTANT
When printing out reports or program
information, remember to replace the
receipt/invoice roll with the service roll (as
prompted by the terminal) to avoid having
to void miss-printed receipts.

3. TERMINAL FUNCTION
3.1 Main Function
3.1.1 Department or PLU sales
Sales are registered according to one of the
following categories:
♦Departments
♦PLU Under a department
When the terminal is installed, the departments
may be customized according to the specific
needs of each client and according to the
parameters given below:
•Description #1 (18 characters max.)
•Description #2 (18 characters max.)
•Price #1
•Price #2
•Maximum amount
•VAT rate first price
•VAT rate second price
•Automatic transaction close option
Department sales are made by entering an
amount followed by the department key.
For preset prices, only the DEPARTMENT key
need be pressed. However, the preset prices
can always be overridden.
In addition to department sales, the printer can
accommodate a certain number of items with
preset prices (called PLUs), whose description
and price are printed out on the receipt by
simply entering the quantity and code number.
PLUs utilize an indirect procedure, i.e.,
entering the product code followed by the PLU
key.
PLUs differ from preset departments in the way
they are recalled by the machine logic. With
preset departments, when a numeric value is
entered followed by a department key, the
terminal reads the value entered as a price,
while with PLUs, when a numeric value (from 1
to 300) is entered followed by the PLU key, the
terminal reads this value as the recall number.
A detailed explanation of the operational
sequences for the different applications is given
in section 4.3.
For the departments, the description that
appears on the receipt does not normally refer
to the specific product, but rather to its category
(for example, FIRST COURSES rather than
XXX LASAGNE).
To summarize, there are:
•Indirect PLUs maximum number is
given in the MAIN
FEATURES section
•Departments
enterable and
preset)
the maximum number of
direct departments
depends on the number
For both the PLUs and departments, the
terminal stores separately the quantity sold and
the corresponding amounts.
Printouts of this data, along with other detailed
information or summaries, can be requested.
NOTE
The terminal is normally programmed with a
default quantity of“1” which is printed out. To
expedite operation, repeated pressing of the
PLU or DEPARTMENT keys will cause the
last sale to be repeated and registered.
3.1.2 Voids and Corrections
The keyboard has a CORRECTION key which
annuls the last operation performed, pressing
directly, or preceded by“0”showsthe
included articles.
After selection of the article to correct, (with
“Cod.Oper” and “Cod. Conven”keys)press
“CASH” key to delete it. To exit press
“CLIENT CODE(Esc)”.
There is also a CANCEL OPERATION key
which cancels the entire operation and to
allow the data to be re-input.

13 DTK53
3.1.3 Discounts and surcharges
Permissible operations include:
•percent discounts on single transactions
•percent discounts on the subtotal
•percent surcharges on the subtotal
•fixed amount discounts on the subtotal
It is also possible to program a percent or
fixed amount that is automatically applied
when the discount or surcharge key is
pressed.
The results of these operations are rounded
up or down to the nearest 5 lire unless the
machine has been otherwise programmed.
3.1.4 Closing the transaction
Closing the transaction refers to the phase
which begins with the pressing of one of the
payment keys (CASH, CREDIT, OTHER
PAYMENTS) for which the terminal prints the
receipt/ invoice with the transaction total (the
sum of the goods or services sold) including
any discounts, surcharges, refunds and/or
corrections, etc.).
3.1.5 Payment method
The terminal includes on its keyboard assigned
keys and sequences to cover all traditional
forms of payment:
•CASH
•CREDIT
•OTHER PAYMENTS (Check,Credit
card,Vouchers)
Each form of payment has its own total and
counter.
Payment mode may be mixed (e.g., part in
Cash and the rest on Credit) and checks
made out to sums in excess of the
transaction amount may also be cashed and
change due calculated.
The terminal can also be used to store
information for:
•INDIVIDUAL CREDIT ACCOUNTS
For a fixed number of clients (max. 100) with
the possibility of updating the account, including
partial payments either as part of a transaction
or separately. It can also be finalized as a
general Credit sale that can be called up with
the Client code“0”.
Note that once the transaction has been
concluded using the credit key, the balance can
be displayed by pressing:
CASH
Enter

4FUNCTION
1 0 000 CASH
3FUNCTION
5 0 000 CASH
The terminal also has a CREDIT RECOVERY
function which, after the customer has made a
total or partial payment, allows this payment to
be registered and the customer account
updated, even if effected outside a normal sales
transaction.
Finally, the terminal may also be used to
manage :
3.1.6 Corporate or meal voucher
Terminal runs 30 types of ticket's“cut” linked to
10 companies, these are stored and when it's
required, a recording invoice to the linked
company is made. Selling with payments in
vouchers is for the terminal a credit selling
specifing on the receipt not only
EQUIVALENT NOT PAID
but the details of one of the 30 programming
conventions, too, both the description and the
total value (calling again with the proper key, as
agreed with law). Moreover, this payment
allows a mix payment, i.e., it's possible to
charge the voucher's value and, if there is a
difference, to close by cash.
3.1.7 Voucher's payment
•Type the different items
•Press sub total (not compulsory but it's
useful to check the amount to transmit to
the client)
•Press the voucher's code (for example 1
Ticket Day Itl. 15,000) if it's only one
voucher or make use of multiplication if
there are multiple's vouchers
•Press the key
•If the amount is the same to the voucher's
value, terminal will print the receipt, if the
voucher's amount is lower, terminal stops
and it waits the finishing payment, if the
voucher's amount is higher, terminal puts
the difference with "OTHER" item on the bill.
3.1.8 Indirect receipts
Direct payments (such as imprest fund) can
be made without issuing a document (if an
auxiliary printer is connected, the pre-receipt
will be generated on the service machine) and
the cash-on-hand balance will be
incremented.
The procedure for this operation is as follows:
•enter
The display will read
IMPREST FUND
0
•Enter the amount (e.g., 10.000)
3.1.9 Direct payments
Withdrawals and expenditures (e.g., courier
payments) can be effected as follows:
The display will read

3.1.10 Customization
Any customization of the terminal to meet
specific client requirements is usually carried
out by the client service technician.
However, the user can customize some
parameters, for example PLU prices and
PRESET DEPARTMENTS, by following the
procedures outlined in the PROGRAMMING
section.
3.1.11 Reports (printouts)
Through the terminal, a wide range of detailed
and summary reports pertaining to corporate
operational data can be printed out.
Each type of report may be generated in two
different modes:
•REPORT WITH ZERO-RESET
•READ-ONLY REPORT
The former provides a printout of the counters
and totalizers which reset to zero once the
report has been printed. This type of report is
usually requested when a periodic check of
certain data is required (for example, daily
receipts or a daily report of all user
transactions).
The latter provides a cumulative report and the
counters and totalizers do not reset to zero after
the data is printed.
The reports that can be generated are listed in
the MAIN FEATURES section.
For a complete description of the procedures to
be followed to print these reports, please refer
to the chapter contained in this manual.
3.1.12 Special Function
This terminal offers a wide range of additional
functions, including:
•Subtotal display on the terminal at any
time during the transaction
•User identification
•PLU price confirmation during the
transaction
•Automatic client heading print-out

4. USING THE TERMINAL
4.1 Preparing the terminal
Before using the terminal for the first time, it is a
good idea to carry out a few preliminary
operations, some of which will already have
been performed by the service technician
(heading and department programming, etc.),
but some may be performed by the user
directly.
1. Plug the electrical cable into the back of the
terminal
2. Turn on the terminal using the switch
located at the rear
4.1.1 Inserting a plain paper roll
(w/o alignment mark)
Loading the service roll into the terminal permits
the printing of utilities without ruining receipt or
invoice stock.
Follow the instructions given below to load
paper into either of the two models, with or
without cutter:
1. Open the printer cover and position the roll
of paper, making sure it unrolls in the proper
direction
2. Use the lever to raise the printing head;
3. Insert the end of the roll into the opening of
the printing mechanism and wait for the roll
to load:
4. Lower the head lever and press the FEED
button to feed a few centimeters of paper
out of the printer
5. Feed the end of the paper roll into the
opening in the printer cover and close the
cover

4.2.1 How to print out a fiscal
receipt or invoice
The default setting of the terminal is
usually set for the printing of fiscal
receipts, but this setting can be changed
through programming. When the machine
is in use, the document type to be printed
(fiscal receipt or invoice) can be selected
at one of two different times, either before
or after the items have been entered.
Before:
Use the procedure described above to select
the document type. Once the type of document
to be printed has been selected, the terminal is
ready to receive the data for the current sale,
input as described in the next chapter, followed
by closing according to payment type.
N.B.: If the document number must be
changed, proceed as follows:
Select a function (10, 11 or 12)
Through a message on the display, the terminal
will request the number of the receipt or invoice,
for example:
RECEIPT #
34
Confirm the number using the CASH key, or
enter a new number (a number less than the
one stored cannot be entered) followed by
the CASH key.
Once this has been performed, the terminal is
ready to receive the data for the current sale,
input as described in the next chapter, followed
by closing according to payment type.
After:
Enter the data for the sales transaction, then,
before closing, select the document type as
described above (2for invoice then
FUNCTION). Once selected, close using the
applicable payment mode.
