3. Once you have logged in to CUPS, select your desired printer model from the list.
4. From the drop down menu select the option: 'Set Default Options'
5. Now from here, select 'Cash Drawer Control' option. Then select 'Open after printing' for 'Cash Drawer #1' and 'Cash Drawer #2'. Once done. Click the 'Set Default Options' button below.
