If your terminal has a built-in printer, or connects to an external printer, there are several printing options you can configure that determine when a transaction receipt gets printed, as well as the receipt's appearance.
If your terminal is equipped with a printer, you can adjust the printer settings to suit your business needs.
The available printing options are:
If your terminal is equipped with (or connects to) a printer, you can print transaction receipts after the transaction is confirmed. By default, the Secure Payment application's payment module enables the printing on transaction receipts, but you can adjust the setting if needed.
NOTE: If you do not enable the printing of transaction receipts and provide no other method for a customer to receive proof of their transaction, reimbursements will be more difficult to process.
From the main screen, touch the Menu button.
Enter the merchant password and touch Confirm.
If you have more than one terminal, repeat steps 1 to 4 for each additional terminal where you want to enable transaction receipt printing.
When you enable the printing of transaction receipts, the customer receipt is always available to print, but you can choose whether to print the merchant copy or not. Printing the merchant copy for each transaction allows you to reconcile your individual transactions with the batch processing and the transaction reports.
NOTE: Printing the transaction receipts for the customer AND merchant will consume more printer paper.
From the main screen, touch the Menu button.
Enter the merchant password and touch Confirm.
In the Configure application section, touch Printer options.
In the Copies section, slide the Merchant Copy Printouts toggle switch to the right if it isn't already enabled.
If you have more than one terminal, repeat steps 1 to 4 for each additional terminal where you want to enable the printing of the merchant copy of the transaction receipt.
The payment terminals use thermal paper to print the transaction receipts. You can adjust the level of contrast for the transaction receipts if they are difficult to read. If you have a mobile or portable payment terminal, the contrast level can affect battery usage.
The following table shows examples of each printout contrast level:
Pale
Normal
Dark
Lightest printout (lowest contrast), prints faster and uses less battery
Default printout setting, average printing speed and battery use
Darkest printing (highest contrast), prints slower and uses more battery
From the main screen, touch the Menu button.
Enter the merchant password and touch Confirm.
In the Configure application section, touch Printer options.
In the Copies section, touch Printout color depth.
On the Printout color depth screen, touch the desired contrast level: Pale, Normal, or Dark.
If you have more than one terminal, repeat steps 1 to 5 for each additional terminal where you want to set the printout contrast level.
In addition to printing receipts for sales transactions, you can print receipts for some non-sales transactions, including:
Declined credit transactions
Void transactions
Completed transactions
Force post transactions
IMPORTANT! If you disable printing for any of these operations, the customer will have no physical evidence of these transactions.
In addition to the transactions listed above, you can enable or disable the following printer settings:
Bar code: Prints a barcode on the transaction receipt that identifies the individual transaction; helpful when using a terminal equipped with a scanner when performing refund or void transactions
Total line on pre-authorization receipts: Adds a total line to the transaction receipt that prints when a pre-authorization is confirmed (usually paired with the tip line)
Tip line on pre-authorization receipts: Adds a tip line to the transaction receipt that prints when a pre-authorization is confirmed
Cashback print Signature line: Adds a signature line for cashback transactions for customers to sign as proof that they received the requested cashback amount

When using the Secure Payment application, it is helpful to have a list of processed transactions to ensure your bookkeeping is aligned with your business' sales. The terminal can print transaction reports, allowing you to view either detailed or summary information on the transactions and transaction types in the current batch, if your business uses multiple terminals, you need to print reports on those terminals to view their reports.
Detailed reports display a list of every transaction in the current batch, including date, time, transaction type, payment method, invoice number, and amount. Summary reports group the transactions by card type, displaying the total sales, and the number of transactions.
The terminal’s printer (built-in or external) can print transaction reports for the current batch. For reconciliation purposes, you may want to print a report prior to the automated settlement, but it is not a requirement. Printing reports is meant to assist with your bookkeeping.
The available transaction reports are:
Additionally, you can search for individual transactions using the Search for a Transaction procedure.
You can search for transactions on the terminal to view the details about one or more transactions. If you have multiple terminals operating under the same merchant ID (MID), all transactions from all terminals appear in the list with the most recent transaction at the top of the list. You can search for transactions in the current (open) batch as well as from previous batches.
NOTE: Because all of a merchant's transactions processed on all terminals are saved immediately to the server, the list of transactions may be quite long.
TIP: If you find it difficult to locate a specific transaction from an individual terminal, you may choose to restrict the search function to only display transactions performed on each individual terminal.
To restrict the transaction display to only those processed by the terminal, you must contact PayFacto support to request that your merchant profile displays only transactions processed on individual terminals by activating the Terminal Only Reports function. This will restrict transaction searching to individual terminals.

The Secure Payment application's payment module allows you to assign passwords to protect the terminal from unauthorized use. All terminal passwords are 6 numeric (numbers only) characters in length to provide security without slowing down the overall time it takes to process a transaction.
The terminal has 3 types of user passwords:
Administrator (Admin): Configured during initial terminal activation
Merchant: Configured during initial terminal activation
Operator: Configured when creating one or more terminal operators
For more information on specific password procedures, click any of the following links:
The terminal uses passwords for different user levels. The user levels follow a hierarchy, and a “higher” level password can enable a function (or override a password) for a “lower” level user.
For example, an operator can use the Merchant password to enable a password-protected sale, while an Administrator password can unlock functions that require a Merchant password.
When setting passwords on your payment terminal, you must respect the following parameters:
Passwords must be 6 characters long
The Administrator and Merchant passwords cannot be the same (can’t match)
You cannot use the same digit 6 times consecutively (for example: 111111 or 777777)
You cannot use 6 consecutive numbers, either ascending or descending (for example: 123456 or 987654)
If you enter a password incorrectly, the terminal displays an Access refused error message.
Touch the error message to return to the Password field and re-enter the required password.
If a user forgets a password, the password reset procedure depends on the terminal user profile. The following table explains who can reset which password and which procedure to use:
As part of your original terminal activation, you set an Administrator password. The Administrator password provides access to advanced terminal functions and can also enable password-protected operations. You can change the Administrator password whenever you feel it necessary.
NOTE: Do not forget the new Administrator password; the only way to reset it is to contact PayFacto support.

If you have more than one terminal, repeat steps 1 to 10 for each additional terminal where you want to change the Admin password.
As part of your original terminal activation, you set a Merchant password. The Merchant password protects against unauthorized users performing certain operations. You can change the Merchant password whenever you feel it necessary.
NOTE: Do not forget the new Merchant password; the only way to reset it is to use the Admin password or to contact PayFacto support.
From the main screen, touch the Menu button.
Enter the merchant password and touch Confirm.
Scroll to the Configure application section.

If you have more than one terminal, repeat steps 1 to 10 for each additional terminal where you want to change the Merchant password.
For added security, you can require the Merchant password for certain functions or transactions before the operation can proceed. By default, this security measure is enabled for the following functions and transactions:
By default, all of the operations listed above have password protection enabled. Reimbursement transactions are always password protected, but you can select if the transaction requires the Admin or Merchant password.
You can disable the password protection on certain sales transactions and exiting the Secure Payment application if desired, but that leaves the terminal vulnerable to unauthorized use where any person could perform those functions.
NOTE: To ensure the security of your transactions, it is strongly recommended that you enable the use of passwords for the selected functions.
As a security measure, the Secure Payment application requires a password before processing reimbursement transactions. You can choose which password to require (Admin or Merchant) or you can disable passwords for reimbursements, depending on your preference. By default, refunds require the Admin password and voids require the Merchant password.
IMPORTANT! If you disable passwords for reimbursement transactions, anyone can process a refund or a void without supervisory or management knowledge or approval. To prevent possible fraudulent reimbursements, you should maintain password protection as part of the reimbursement process.
