The BANKjet 1500 Printer supports dual cash drawers with status. The driver in the printer is capable of supplying
24 Vdc at up to 1.5 amps for 250 milliseconds. The BANKjet 1500 Printer defines cash drawer closed as switch
open. If the drawer is disconnected, the printer considers it closed. Since the printer does not act on the cash drawer
status, the application can interpret cash drawer status any way it wants.

Table 13 Cash Drawer Connectors
The printer can be configured for one of three cash drawer configurations. The interface card has a 14-pin header
with a 10-pin shunt installed. The shunt position defines the configuration of the cash drawer. Refer to the markings
on the board when determining where the shunt should be installed to work in the three different configurations.
