- Enter:
- Printer name – e.g., “Counter Receipt”
- IP address – the printer’s IP (e.g., 192.168.1.100)
- Port – usually 9100 (default for most network printers)
- Choose Print type or Printing choice:
- Receipt – for customer receipts

- Choose Print format – Thermal 56mm, Thermal 80mm, or Non-thermal.
- If this is your main receipt printer, check Set as default.
- Click Save or Add.

Step-by-Step: Add a KOT Printer
- Go to Settings > Printer tab.
- Click Add Printer.
- Enter name and IP address (e.g., “Kitchen Grill”).

Common Issues
| Issue | What to do |
|---|---|
| No print | Check IP address, port (9100), and that the printer is on. |
| Wrong printer | Edit the printer and ensure correct Receipt/KOT assignment. |
| Default printer error | Only one printer can be default; uncheck another first. |
| KOT conflict | Each kitchen can have only one printer; don’t assign the same KOT to two printers. |
End Result
- Receipt and KOT printers are configured and tested.
- Default receipt printer is set.
- Kitchen printers (if used) are assigned to the correct kitchens or KOT type.
