Printer Targets and test prints
The one place that decides what prints where.
Admin → System Settings → Printer Targets lists every printer with its role — Receipt, or Kitchen with the station it serves (or all stations) — and its copies, channels, cash drawer and fallback printer. Below it:
- Print Areas — your kitchen stations, shared by the printers, the menu's routing and the kitchen screen's tabs.
- Print Rules — optional extra routing by print area or table section. With no rules, plain printer routing applies.
- Printer Health — each printer's last print and failures in a row.
- Add each printer and give it a role.
- Tap Test on each one.
- Test again after any network or printer change.
Note
Every printer prints at the restaurant's default Receipt Width (Hardware & Printing) unless a till or kitchen screen has set its own paper width. There is no printer-port setting: each printer is reached at its own address.
Tip
When printing “breaks”, start here — a test print tells you at once whether it's the setup or the printer.
