Printer Power Port
The Printer Power Port allows an industry standard POS printer to be powered from the
J2 485, eliminating the need for a separate external power supply for the printer.
The Printer Power Port supplies 24 VDC 2.5 amps and 6.0 amp surge current which will
run most POS printers on the market. The power cable for this port is supplied standard
with the J2 485 unit. The Printer Power Port will also supply power to a printer even
when running with the optional UPS feature. When the J2 485 is powered down,the
power to the printer is turned off. This same power circuit is used by the +24 Powered
USB port and normally only one +24V device is supported at one time, unless it can be
ensured that only one device prints at a time.

Cash Drawer Port
The J2 485 is equipped with one Cash Drawer Port that will support one or two cash
drawers. This port is located in the back of the unit and uses the industry standard RJ-11
connector and pin out (
illustrated below
). This pin-out is the same as used by EPSON
printers, and cables for the EPSON printer normally work fine with the J2 485.
