Printing a bill

In a standard sales processing scenario, bills are printed automatically as soon as they are generated, i.e. when sending a guest tab for payment in Waiter or Club waiter mode, or when submitting an order in Fast Food mode. If necessary, a bill can be re-printed in Cashier mode.

Any open bill can be printed.

Note

The main terminal printer will be used by default, but any printer connected to the terminal may be used.

To print bills, a bill printing format must be configured for the printer.

Select the bill you want to print and press Print bill in the context menu.
