INTRODUCTION
Thank you very much for your purchase of the SHARP Electronic Cash Register, Model XE-A301.
Please read this manual carefully before operating your machine in order to gain full understanding of
functions and features.
Please keep this manual for future reference. It will help you if you encounter any operational problems.
Be sure to initialize the cash register before you start operating the cash register. Otherwise, distorted
memory contents and malfunction of the cash register will occur. For this procedure, please refer to page 8.
IMPORTANT
• Be very careful when removing and replacing the printer cover, as the cutter mounted on it is very
sharp.
• Install the cash register in a location not subject to direct sunlight, unusual temperature changes,
high humidity or splashing water.
Installation in such locations could cause damage to the cabinet and the electronic components.
• Never operate the register with wet hands.
The water could seep into the interior of the register and cause component failure.
• When cleaning your register, use a dry, soft cloth. Never use solvents, such as benzine and/or
thinner.
The use of such chemicals will lead to discolouration or deterioration of the cabinet.
• The register plugs into any standard wall outlet (official (nominal) voltage).
Other electrical devices on the same electrical circuit could cause the register to malfunction.
• For complete electrical disconnection, disconect the main plug.
PRECAUTION
This Electronic Cash Register has a built-in memory protection circuit which is operated by rechargeable
batteries.
As you know, all batteries will, in time, dissipate their charge even if not used. Therefore to insure an
adequate initial charge in the protection circuit, and to prevent any possible loss of memory upon installation, it
is recommended that each unit be allowed to recharge for a period of 24 to 48 hours prior to use. Also note
that if the rechargeable batteries have been discharged completely, your cash register will be automatically
initialized when you turn on the power.
In order to charge the batteries, the machine must be plugged in and the mode switch must be in a position
other than “ ”. This recharging precaution can prevent unnecessary initial service calls.
CAUTION!
For Easy Set-up, see
“GETTING STARTED” (page 7).

example, when you register an item of dept. 21 using the Dkey and then an item of dept. 1
using the preset unit price, you should use the department code entry key described below for the
dept. 1 item. If you just press the ¡key to register dept. 1 item, it will act as a repeat entry of
dept. 21 item.
• When using the department code entry key
Enter a department (dept.) code and press the dkey, then enter a unit price and press the dkey again. If
you use a programmed unit price, enter a dept. code and press the dkey.

When zero is entered, only the sales

2. PLU/subdepartment entries
For another merchandise classification, the cash register provides a maximum of 1800 PLUs/subdepartments.
PLUs are used to call up preset prices by a code entry. Subdepartments are used to classify merchandise into
smaller groups under the departments. Every PLU and subdepartment has a code from 1 to 1800, and should
belong to a department to obtain attributes of that department.
The cash register is pre-programmed to PLU mode and zero for unit price. To use PLU entries, their preset unit
prices should be previously programmed. (Refer to page 30.)
To use subdepartment entries, change to subdepartment mode for the PLU codes.

Multiplication entries
When selling a large quantity of items, it is convenient to use the multiplication entry method. Enter quantity
using numeric keys and press the @key before starting item entry as shown in the example below.
When programmed to allow fractional quantity entries, you can enter up to four integers and three
digit decimal, though the quantity is counted as one for sales reports. To enter a fractional quantity,
use the decimal point key between integer and decimal, as 7P5 for entering 7.5.
Split pricing entries
You will use this function when your customer wants to purchase more or less than the base quantity of a loose
item. To make split pricing entries, follow the procedure below:
• If you live in Australia, please change the printing format for this function. Please refer to "Other
programming" (Job code 68) of "Various Function Selection Programming 1" on page 48.
• When programmed to allow fractional quantity entries, you can enter up to four integers and three
digit decimal. To enter a fractional quantity, use the decimal point key between integer and
decimal, as 7P5 for entering 7.5.

Single item cash sale (SICS) entry
• This function is useful when a sale is for only one item and is for cash. This function is applicable only to those
departments that have been set for SICS or to their associated PLUs or subdepartments.
• The transaction is complete and the drawer opens as soon as you press the department key, dkey or
pkey.
If an entry to a department or PLU/subdepartment set for SICS follows the ones to departments or
PLUs/subdepartments not set for SICS, it does not finalize and results in a normal sale.
The subtotal is displayed by pressing the skey. When you press it, the subtotal of all entries which have
been made is displayed with the function message “SUBTOTAL”.
Subtotal will not be printed on a receipt on the current factory setting. If you want to print it, change
the setting by programming. Refer to “Receipt print format” (Job code 7) on page 45.
Cash or cheque tendering
Press the skey to get a subtotal, enter the amount tendered by your customer, then press the Akey
if it is a cash tender or press a cheque key (X
or
Y
) if it is a cheque tender. When the amount tendered is
greater than the amount of the sale, the register will show the change due amount with the function message
“CHANGE”. Otherwise the register will show a deficit with the function message “DUE”. You now must make a
correct tender entry.

VAT/ tax system
The cash register may be programmed for the following six VAT/tax systems. The cash register is pre-
programmed as automatic VAT 1-4 system.
Automatic VAT 1-4 system (Automatic operation method using programmed percentages)
This system, at settlement, calculates VAT for taxable 1 through 4 subtotals by using the corresponding
programmed percentages.
Automatic tax 1-4 system (Automatic operation method using programmed percentages)
This system, at settlement, calculates taxes for taxable 1 through 4 subtotals by using the corresponding
programmed percentages, and also adds the the calculated taxes to those subtotals, respectively.
Manual VAT 1-4 system (Manual entry method using programmed percentages)
This system provides the VAT calculation for taxable 1 through 4 subtotals. This calculation is performed using
the corresponding programmed percentages when the tkey is pressed just after the skey.
Manual VAT 1 system (Manual entry method for subtotals that uses VAT 1 preset percentages)
This system enables the VAT calculation for the then subtotal. This calculation is performed using the VAT 1
preset percentages when the tkey is pressed just after the skey. For this system, the keyed-in tax rate
can be used.
Manual tax 1-4 system (Manual entry method using preset percentages)
This system provides the tax calculation for taxable 1 through 4 subtotals. This calculation is performed using
the corresponding programmed percentages when the tkey is pressed just after the skey.
After this calculation, you must finalize the transaction.
