Replacing you cash register that you validated with
Chances are if you don't know what Validation means then you don't need it! I'm shocked that still in 2025 we get calls from people looking to replace their SAM4s ER-5115II or Sharp ER-A320 that they used for validation of guest checks or invoices. Validation means you could insert a guest check or invoice into the cash register printer and press validate and the cash register would print the date, time, amount of the sale and the tender type on that paper you inserted into the printer. That was used to prove the guest check or invoice was paid for at the register. this is a holdover from about twenty or thirty years when it was really common, Its one of those things if you know, you know!
Here is the problem with validating cash registers
Well there is a problem with validating cash registers today and its a big one. They are no longer made anywhere in the world that I'm aware of. The reason being is that all the manufactures switched to thermal printers which are faster, quiet and rarely break. The problem is thermal printers can't validate. So what is a person to do if they still need to validate? Well the answer is to buy a modern machine the the SAM4s ER-915 (that can't validate on its own) and add an option slip printer to it. With the optional slip printer you can still validate. the slip printer is a mechanical printer that uses an ink ribbon and a dot matrix printing system. There are two drawbacks, first it is about double the price of the old register when you combine the new register plus the slip printer, and second is the fact its two pieces of equipment so takes up more counter space.
