Once you ve attached them to their allotted ports, plug the power cord into an electrical socket. The POS is almost ready to go. Plug in the wall chargers, then plug the micro USB cable into the bottom of the tablet. Tilt the tablet toward you and plug the printer s USB cable into one of the three USB ports on the side of the POS stand. SETTING UP YOUR SYSTEM 3
