1 turn your key to the position between REG and Off2 Press rcpt button once3 turn back to REG

Key number 7 is stuck down . pluck it out and try operating again

please open your application through run as option

I believe this might help, not exactly familiar with this exact model but here it goes.
Receipt ON/OFF function
When you use the printer to issue receipts, you can disable receipt printing in the REG mode to save paper
using the receipt ON/OFF function. To disable receipt printing, press the Rkey in the OP X/Z position. This
key toggles the receipt printing status ON and OFF.
The register will print reports regardless of the receipt state, so the paper roll must be installed.
To issue a receipt when receipt ON/OFF function is set to OFF:
If your customer wants a receipt after you finalized a transaction with the receipt ON/OFF function being OFF
status, press the Rkey. This will produce a receipt. However, if more than 30 items were entered, the
receipt will be issued in a summary receipt.
Copy receipt
You can print a copy receipt by pressing the Rkey when the receipt ON/OFF function is in the “ON” status.
To realize this function, you must enable the function. Please refer to page 62 (Job code 63).

To issue a receipt when receipt ON/OFF function is set to OFF:
