Title: How to make the ticket printer work? (Sigma 1700) Post by: cfh on April 25, 2009, 12:42:10 PM So i have a Sigma uv1700 from 2003 that has a DBV and a ticket printer.
If i leave the ticket printer plugged in (on the backplane CN35), the game will eventually complain it's either out of paper (easy fix) or it's just plain unhappy about the ticket printer. Is there anyway to make the printer work? i know before it prints the ticket it wants to talk to the LAN and upload the ticket number and amount to a central computer. obviously it can't do that, so it gets a fail message before printing. but is there anyway to fool it, and just have it print a ticket with the number of credits "cashed out"? thanks! cfh@provide.net Title: Re: How to make the ticket printer work?

that's not the problem. the game talks to said printer too. but what happens when you try to print, the game attempts to communicate with the network (which of course isn't there), and then gives a communications error. They do this because the ticket info is uploaded to a central computer. then when you bring the ticket to the cashier, it can be verified as 'legit' and not a counterfet. so what needs to be done is the ticket printer/game needs to be fooled into thinking it has communicated with the network. Only then will it print the ticket. |
