Setting Up Printers

This document will explain how to set up a printer as well as a printer at another station for example a Bar station that will print bar items only. I will explain how to assign products to a certain printer at a later stage.

Step 1:
Navigate to where you need to create printer stations. Click on “Devices” and then “Printers” (marked in red).

Step 2:
If there’s a printer station like the below then you can click on the pencil marked in red and edit the name to the desired station.

After you have changed the station name you can create a new one by clicking on “Create Station” (marked in red).

Step 3:
After the stations has been created, you need to add a printer to the station by clicking on the “Add Printer” (marked in red).

Step 4:
In this example I’ll be setting up a LAN Printer for the Main Station. You have to retrieve the IP address from the printer to add it to “IP Address”. Set the “Port” to 9100 if it’s a LAN Printer.

If this is the Default Printer then set it to “Yes”.

Moving on the the Bar Printer. In this case I will set it up as a USB printer.

If this is the Default Printer then set it to “Yes”.

If you want a certain item to print at a certain printer for example a beer at the Bar Printer then make sure to set the “Station” to Bar.
