This works for both the Sharp ER-A460 and The Sharp ER-A470 Cash Register.

Please note this tax programming is for the tax rate, not the tax table. I don’t know of any people still using tax tables in the US. Also this does not make every sale Taxable or Non-Taxable you must still program your departments and/or PLU’s to be taxable or not.

Steps

• Turn Key to PGM 2
• Enter 2711
• Press the Decimal Key
• Press the @/For key
• Enter 1 for tax rate 1, 2 for 2, 3 for 3, or 4 for 4.
• Press the @/For key
• Enter the tax rate (example 8.8% enter as 88000) the register will place the decimal
• Press the @/For Key
• Enter the lowest amount Taxable (I always enter 1 unless in your area maybe everything under $1.00 is non-taxable) What ever you enter and above will be taxed when entered in a taxable department.
• Press the Cash Key.
• Turn key to Reg and test.
• Thats it!
