    1.

  1. PrinterPrinter: : This dropdown shows all available printers that can be assigned to the terminal. Typically, we name each printer to match the terminal it’s connected to, making it easy to select the correct one. This ensures receipts, tickets, or other print jobs are sent to the expected location.

  2. 2. Cash Drawer(s): Use this setting to assign a cash drawer to the terminal. Just like printers, cash drawers are usually named to match the terminal they’re connected to, simplifying setup and identification. The terminal will automatically open this drawer during cash transactions.

  3. 3. Cash Drawer 2 (optional): If you have a second cash drawer connected to the same terminal—common in setups with two bartenders—you can assign it here. When using two drawers, the system will determine which drawer to use based on the bartender logged into the terminal.

  4. 4. Payment Terminal: This setting links the terminal to your payment device or credit card processor. It can be set to use the terminal’s built-in card swipe or an external EMV/chip reader. Like printers and drawers, payment terminals are usually named after the terminal they’re paired with for easier identification and configuration.
