The register itself seems pretty solid and will work well for a small business. However I was having trouble getting the drivers to work so I could run the setup program from my laptop. Upon a call to Sharp I am informed that Sharp does not offer any drivers that work with 64 bit operating systems. You can however still just transfer the information from an SD card between a computer and the register.

*Follow up*
So now that we have an SD card for the register we are unable to get that to work either. My most recent call to Sharp I am now being told we cannot use the SD card either on a system unless it is Windows XP 32-Bit edition which is the opposite of what the last e-mail support reply I got said. While the register seems like it would work fine if we could ever program it, Sharp's customer support so far is terrible. I'm being told different thing by different people, the service on the phone is hard to understand (overseas call center possibly?) and the email support is slow to respond.

Product arrived on time as promised. The overall functioning is pretty good, but the daily batch is unnecessarily complicated.

I needed a new cash register for my store and found this one on Amazon. It was really more than i needed in options but liked the basics. I had a little trouble setting it up for my store's use, but it was more me than the machine. the directions could be made a little more for dummies but I got it done and I love it. Works great.
