Configure Printer Lists

Printer lists are used to group printers with similar capabilities and are used to ensure that your tickets and other sales documents print on compatible printers. You must add a printer list for each type of printer you use. For example, if you have specialized ticket printers, you should add a “Ticket Printers” list that includes all of your ticket printers. If you use thermal receipt printers, you should add a “Receipt Printers” list that includes all receipt printers. When you add a ticket or receipt sales document template, you will assign the corresponding printer list to each.

When you add a printer list, the pool of printers you can select from are only those printers that have been added to workstations. If you have not yet added printers to workstations, there no printers available. For information about how to add printers to workstations, see Configure Workstation Printers.

Note: After you add printer lists, you assign them to sales document templates to ensure that your tickets and other sales documents print on compatible printers. For more information about sales document templates, see Configure Ticket and Sales Document Templates.
