INTRODUCTION
Thank you very much for your purchase of the SHARP Electronic Cash Register, Model XE-A21S.
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.
Never install the batteries into the cash register before initializing it. Before you start operating the cash
register, you must first initialize it, then install three new alkaline batteries LR6 (“AA” size) on the register.
Otherwise, distorted memory contents and malfunction of the cash register will occur. For this procedure,
please refer to page 7.
IMPORTANT
• On the printer, a cutter to cut the paper roll is mounted. Always be careful not to cut yourself by the
cutter.
• Install your register in a location that is not subject to direct radiation, unusual temperature changes,
high humidity or exposed to water sources.
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 discoloration or deterioration of the cabinet.
• The register plugs into any standard wall outlet (120V AC ±10%).
Other electrical devices on the same electrical circuit could cause the register to malfunction.
• For protection against data loss, please install three alkaline batteries LR6 (“AA” size) after
initializing the cash register. When handling the batteries, never fail to observe the followings:
Incorrectly using batteries can cause them to burst or leak, possibly damaging the interior of the
cash register.
• Be sure that the the positive (+) and negative (-) poles of each battery are facing in the proper
direction for installation.
• Never mix batteries of different types.
• Never mix old batteries and new ones.
• Never leave dead batteries in the battery compartment.
• Remove the batteries if you do not plan to use the cash register for long periods.
• Should a battery leak, clean out the battery compartment immediately, taking care to avoid letting
the battery fluid come into direct contact with your skin.
• For battery disposal, follow the corresponding law in your country.
• If the register malfunctions, call 1-800-BE-SHARP for service - do not try to repair the register
yourself.

GETTING STARTED
Please follow the procedure shown below. The batteries are not installed and the power is OFF.
Three new alkaline batteries LR6 (“AA” size) must be installed in the cash register to prevent the data
and user-programmed settings from being erased from the memory, when the AC cord is accidentally
disconnected or in case of power failure. Once installed, the batteries will last approximately one year before
needing replacement. At this time, the “ ” symbol will appear on the display to indicate the batteries are low
and must be replaced within two days. If the no battery symbol “ ” appears, you must install the batteries at
once.
Install three new alkaline batteries LR6 (“AA” size) according to the procedure shown below with the AC cord
connected and the mode switch set to the REG position:
1. Push the printer cover forward and detach it.
Be careful with the paper cutter, so as not to cut yourself.
2. Open the battery compartment cover next to the paper roll cradle.
Initializing the cash register
In order for your cash register to operate properly, you must initialize it before programming for the first
time. Follow this procedure.
1. Insert the manager (MA) key into the mode switch and turn it to the REG
position.
2. Insert the plug into the AC outlet. The buzzer will sound three times.
IMPORTANT: This operation must be performed without batteries installed.
3. The cash register has now been initialized. The register display will show “0.00”
with “ ”.
If the buzzer does not sound when the plug is inserted, the initialization has not been done
successfully. (This will occur when the voltage is still high because you operated the cash register
just before starting initialization.) In this case, wait at least one minute after pulling out the plug,
and insert the plug again.
Find a stable surface where the cash register is not subject to water sources or direct sunlight near an
AC outlet.
Unpack the cash register and make sure all accessories are included. For details of accessories, please refer to
“Specifications” section.

The register can print receipts or journals. For the printer, you must install the paper roll provided with the
register, even when you program the register for not printing receipts or journals.
Install the paper roll according to the procedure shown below with the AC cord connected and the mode switch
set to the REG position:
1. Lift up the print roller release lever to unlock and open the
print roller arm.
2. Set a paper roll in the paper roll cradle as illustrated at the
right.
When setting a new paper roll in the paper roll
cradle, be sure to cut the paper end behind the
taped (or pasted) point in advance.
3. Feed the end of the paper along with
the paper positioning guides as
illustrated at the right.

5. When not using the take-up spool (using as receipt paper):
• Cut off the excess paper using the edge of the inner cover, and
replace the printer cover. Press the Fkey to make sure the
paper end comes out of the printer cover and clean paper
appears.
If the paper end does not come out, open the printer
cover, and pass the paper end between the paper cutter
and the paper guide of the printer cover, and replace the
cover.
When using the take-up spool (using as journal paper):
• Insert the end of the paper into the slit in the spool. (Press the F
key to feed more paper if required.)
• Wind the paper two or three turns around the spool shaft.
• Set the spool on the bearing, and press the Fkey to take up
excess slack in the paper.
• Replace the printer cover.
When using a paper roll as journal paper, you must change
the printing style. Refer to “Print Format” in “Various
Function Selection Programming 1” section (Job code 6)
for changing the printing style.
The cash register provides text languages of English, French and Spanish. It is preset to English.

Clerk assignment
Prior to any item entries, clerks must enter their clerk codes into the register. However, the code entry may not
be necessary when the same clerk handles the next transaction.
Receipt ON/OFF function
When you use the printer to issue receipts, you can disable receipt printing in the REG mode to save paper
using the receipt ON/OFF function. To disable receipt printing, press the R
key in the OP X/Z position. This
key toggles the receipt printing status ON and OFF.
To check the receipt printing status, turn the mode switch to the OP X/Z position or press the l
key in the REG
mode. When the function is in the OFF status, the receipt off indicator “_” is illuminated. Your register will print
reports regardless of the receipt state, so the paper roll must be installed even when the receipt state is “OFF”.
To issue a receipt when receipt ON/OFF function is set to OFF:
If your customer wants a receipt after you finalized a transaction with the receipt ON/OFF function in the OFF
status, press the R
key. This will produce a receipt. However, if more than 30 items were entered, the
receipt will be issued in the summary receipt print format. Your register can also print a copy of the receipt when
the receipt ON/OFF function is in the “ON” status.
Power Save Mode
The register will enter into power save mode when no entries are performed based on the pre-programmed time
limit (by default, 30 minutes).
When your register goes to the power save mode, all the display lights will turn off except the decimal point at
the left-most position. Your register will return to the normal operation mode when any key is pressed or a mode
is changed with the mode key. Please note when your register is recovered by a key entry, its key entry is
invalid. After the recovery, start the key entry from the beginning.

Cor ckey to finalize the transaction.
Error escape function
When you want to quit a transaction due to an error or an unforeseen event, use the error escape function as
shown below:
The transaction is voided (treated as a subtotal void) and the receipt is issued by this function. If you have
already entered a tendered amount, the operation is finalized as a cash sale.

PLU/sub-department entries
For another merchandise classification, the cash register provides a maximum of 1200 PLUs/sub-departments.
PLUs are used to call up preset prices by a code entry. Sub-departments are used to classify merchandise into
smaller groups under the departments. Every PLU and sub-department has a code from 1 to 1200, 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 35.)
To use sub-department entries, change to sub-department mode for the PLU codes.
