CREATE PRINTER PROFILES

Printer Profiles are what you assign to your Product

so your dockets go to the right printer,

Printers are assigned to Printer Profiles by Device.

To Create Printer Profiles :

  1. In your Back Office => Settings => Printing :

2. Click on ' Create + ' :

3. Type a Name that will make sense to you like: Cafe, Bar, Kitchen ...

If you have several printers in the kitchen but create only 1 printer device 'kitchen' :

All your dockets will print to all the kitchen printers directly.

You can create a ' Kitchen Larder ' printer profile for example
to only print cold dishes & desserts to that one printer.

Printer Profiles can be linked to the same printers: this way all your order print on the

same printer, but separately. (for ex: the food prints, then your drinks)

=> SAVE

ASSIGN ORDER TYPES
