After your confirmation the selected guest tab will be sent for payment and closed. When you send a guest tab to payment, the system generates bills. By default the bills are printed on the primary printer of the POS terminal.

Additional information

If a POS terminal has one or more additional printers, you will be able to select the printer, on which you want to print the bills when sending the guest tab to payment.
