Step 3 | Connect your printer

There are multiple ways you can connect an Epson m30 series printer to your tablet, depending on your specific model. You can choose to connect via Bluetooth, WiFi, USB, or Ethernet.
Connecting via USB:
Depending on your printer model, you may need to purchase a USB cable. For Epson printers purchased from the Wix POS shop, you'll need to buy a cable with a USB connection on one end and a USB-B connection on the other.

    Note: Make sure the product is in your Wix Stores catalog and that its SKU matches the barcode.
  2. Test your card reader: Add an item to the cart and check out with a credit card.
    Tip: You can add a discount so that you aren't charged the whole amount.
  3. Test your cash drawer: 
    • Providing change: Make a cash sale and enter an amount received that requires returning change.
    • Manually opening the cash drawer: Tap Checkout from the bottom bar of the tablet, tap Actions, and select Open Drawer w/o Sale.
  4. Test your printer: When making a test purchase, select the Print Receipt option once the payment is complete.
    Tip: You can customize your receipts to display your business name, logo, and more.
