Basic Troubleshooting

Is your terminal not transacting? You can perform some basic troubleshooting yourself to try and fix an error if the terminal is not working.

Check if the built-in printer is jammed

If your built-in printer is jammed this can affect the transactional capability of the terminal.
Check the paper rolls have been put in correcting and is facing up the right way and make sure the printer cover is closed. Sometimes the paper rolls can be jammed and not allow the terminal to process.

Do you have a working internet connection?

Your EFTPOS terminal requires a working internet connection to process transactions.

If you are using a SIM card on your terminal, check if your area has a working network connection by looking for network outages on the service provider’s website.

If you are unsure if the internet is working, check your internet service provider (ISP) to see if there are any outages in your area. If you are using Wi-Fi or a Base ethernet connection, you can also check other devices, such as mobile phones and laptops to see if they can connect to the internet.

If you are experiencing difficulty with connecting to the internet, give your internet service provider a call.
