Charging your Terminal
Terminal has a rechargeable battery so it doesn't always need to be plugged into a power outlet. When the battery is running low, simply charge it up.
The charging setup involves connecting the Square Terminal to the power adapter using the power adapter cable, and then plugging the power adapter into a power outlet.
Plug in accessories and connect to the internet via Hub for Square Terminal. To learn more or buy Hub, visit square.com/go/terminal-guide.
Loading receipt paper
Make sure you position and orient the roll exactly as shown in step 2. When tearing off a receipt, tear down toward the screen.
- Open the printer door located just above the screen.
- Unroll about an inch of paper from a new roll. Put the roll in the printer as shown above.
- Align the paper with the feed slots, and then close the printer door. Tear off the excess paper.
