Ricochet supports most cash drawers that connect directly to a receipt printer using a RJ12 cable. We do not currently support USB cash drawers.

  1. Directly connect your cash drawer to your printer using the RJ12 cable. The RJ12 ports are typically located on the back of both the printer and the cash drawer.

  2. On Mac, open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:631/printers/ in the address bar.

  3. Select your receipt printer. This will typically be your Star TSP printer.

  4. Select from the drop down menu, “Set Default Options”.

  5. Select “Cash Drawer Control” then choose ‘Open Drawer 1’ and click “Set Default Options” button.
