    **[hs](/u/hs)** ahh ok then your solution seems like it works great... I have a POS printer with direct cable to the register, so a feed or simple "." in my case may work

    As far as I know, you need to issue a special command to printer, depending on printer model, that triggers the drawer. Simple printing (or feed) may not help.

    [David kodwell](/u/Lostislandguy) Yes, I am thinking about . too but as it's from browser so need some work that could take some time.

    [Harpreet Singh](/u/hs) They have set printer properties to open cash drawer before printing.

    **[saleem](/u/saleem)** If it can be set from printer properties, then you are right, you can print a blank line (or .) to initiate drawer. Even a line feed should do.

    I don't have such a printer handy so cannot test my theory.

    If possible, please let us know how it went.

    **[Harpreet Singh](/u/hs)** Hello Mr. Singh,

    I would love to try out your solution as I want to be able to open the cash drawer without the need to use the printer but I cannot see the webserver code. Is it possible you can share the code again please?
