 +In the Manufacturer window select Generic, then under Printers select Generic / Text Only. Click Next to move on to the next screen.
 +
 +{{dellt200:dell_t200_-06.jpg|}}
 +
 +You can leave the printer name as Generic / Text Only, or change it if you wish. I usually leave it as Generic / Text Only, just to keep all the workstations uniform. This just simplifies setting up the invoice tree in System Five, so that all computers will be printing to a receipt printer with the same name. If this is the only printer connected to the workstation, then you can select Yes where it says "Do you want to use this printer as the default printer". Otherwise click on No. Then click Next

 +
 +Generally you would not be sharing the receipt printer, so on this screen just click Next.

 +To ensure that the slip printer is working correctly with the driver you should click on the Yes radial box so that Windows will perform a test print. Click Next.

 +
 +You Should now have a Generic / Text Only driver in your list of Windows printer drivers, and it should have printer a Windows test page. 
 +
 +{{dellt200:dell_t200_-11.jpg|}}
 +
 +If it did not print a Windows test page, you may have selected the wrong port and will need to go back and select another port and run the test print again.
 +
 +
 +
 +
 +Once you have the printer configured so that it is printing a test page, then you need to go back into the printer's properties, and to the Printer commands tab. Click in the End Print Job field and type <07> and click Apply and ok.
