Tares (Container Weights)
Programmed (stored) tares are only available for use when the machine is set to label mode or
pre-pack mode.
When goods are to be weighed in containers, you can set up tare values (container weights)
that are stored against a reference number.
Each tare is assigned to a dedicated press button. Depending on how your machine has been
configured, the tare buttons can be accessed from:
1.
A dedicated press button on the user functions screen.
2.
A dedicated key on the programmable key area below the home screen

Tax Rates
If PLUs are configured with a tax rate (Tax Rate 1 and Tax Rate 2), you can print the tax value
and individual tax rates on the receipt. Miscellaneous fees can also have a tax rate.
In addition, you can also have different taxes that the operator applies to the entire receipt at
the point of sale. For example, depending on whether the customer is eating inside or take-
away.
