In the Box
The PAX S80 terminal ships with a power supply, telephone line cable, and roll of thermal paper.
Before anything else, connect the S80 via phone line or ethernet (LAN) cable and plug it into power. This terminal needs a network connection to be able to communicate with the processor and run transactions.
*Ethernet cable must be purchased separately.
On the back of the S80, plug an ethernet cable into the 'LAN' port OR the phone cable into the 'LINE' port.
An ethernet connection is recommended for faster transaction speeds.
Follow the steps in the next section to load the paper.
Load the Paper
Load a roll of paper into the terminal so you can print customer signature receipts for transactions. The S80 comes with one starter roll of thermal credit card terminal paper.
Press the green release button to open the printer cover.
Drop the paper into the tray with the leading edge feeding down from the bottom of the roll.
Close the cover on the paper.
Press and hold the power button to turn on the terminal.
The S80 is ready to process transactions when it displays ‘Input Amount’.
