e. Warning/error if printer is out of paper, cover open or paper low.
f. Numeric entry dialogs now have a „00‟ button instead of „Clr‟.

Notes
1 The included OPOS controls have been updated to the latest release. Although the OPOS specification is such that older hardware drivers should still
work, you are recommended to update any hardware drivers.
Specifically, we have found that the Digipos DS-900 printer and cash drawer do not behave correctly unless the latest hardware drivers are used (for
example cash drawer may not open on first try and cash drawer open event is not fired).
