Percent Key (%1 and %2) Operations 
Use the Percent keys to add a percentage surcharge or subtract a percentage from an item or the 
subtotal of a sale.  You can enter the amount of the percentage before pressing the %1 or %2 keys, 
or you can program a preset percentage if you are consistently using the same percentage.  
Programming determines whether it is possible to enter a percentage when the key is also 
programmed with a preset percentage. See “%1 and %2 Key Programming” on page 56 to set a 
preset percentage.
