POS System Companies & Dealers in Newburyport, MA

Adams Imaging Systems is an independent office equipment dealer in Newburyport, Massachusetts, run by the Adams family. It is also known locally as Adams Business Machines. Kenneth Adams Jr. founded the company in 1983. It serves businesses across Massachusetts and the New Hampshire Seacoast, and its wider equipment coverage reaches into Maine. Most of its business is copiers, printers and multifunction devices, but it also has a separate point-of-sale and cash register line. That makes it an option for Dover-area retailers and restaurants that want one vendor for both front-counter and back-office hardware.

POS and cash register offerings

The company is an authorized local reseller for Samsung point-of-sale equipment and cash registers. Andrew Adams leads this part of the business and handles both technical and management duties. The company gets its products through a partnership of about thirty years with a privately held U.S. importer and wholesale distributor. That distributor dates back to 1927 and is an RSPA Certified Vendor with the Retail Systems Providers Association. Through this channel, Adams can supply:

• Electronic cash registers
• Point-of-sale terminals
• Receipt printers and barcode scanners
• Cash drawers
• A broad range of POS peripherals and consumables

Regional distribution partners deliver most hardware orders within one or two days. Customers also get round-the-clock technical support and training, both while planning a system and after it is installed. New customers can book a free consultation, where the team helps design a simple setup that fits the business.

Payment processing

Alongside the hardware, Adams represents a merchant services provider, so clients can accept card payments without signing a long-term contract. The options include:

• Countertop card terminals
• Website and mobile payments
• Payments taken over the phone
• Gift card programs
• Check acceptance with quick deposits
• ATM placement that can earn surcharge income

The company offers separate processing setups for retail stores and restaurants. Its staff help merchants choose a service, set up an account and fix problems later on.

Background and approach

Outside of POS, the company is a Toshiba Business Partner and a full-line dealer with factory authorization for brands including Brother, Canon, HP, Toshiba and Samsung. It stocks hardware, accessories, OEM parts and genuine supplies such as toner, ink and printer ribbons. Its technicians are factory certified, trained on many types of machines, and experienced with software setup and networking. A team called Tech Connect works with clients' IT departments on print management and system support. Repairs can be done on-site or by drop-off, and the company promises same-day response either in person or remotely.

Company leadership puts weight on personal, hands-on service, and Ken and Nina Adams work directly with customers. Dover-area merchants should keep two things in mind. The office is in Newburyport, Massachusetts, not in New Hampshire, and POS is only one part of a larger office technology business. In return, buyers get a single local vendor that has been in business for decades and can handle registers, card processing, printers and supplies together.
