4. Adding the Printer to the POS

To connect the printer to the POS:

  1. On the POS, double-tap the "Refresh" button at the bottom to initiate a network self-check.

  2. The printer will print a receipt with its Wi-Fi IP address.

  3. On the POS:

    • Go to Settings > Settings (again from the dashboard).

    • Tap “Printer Settings” then “Printer.”

    • Tap the “+” icon in the top navigation bar.

    • In the "Select Printer" popup, choose “CUSTOM PRINTER.”

    • Enter a name for the printer.

    • Enter the IP address from the printed receipt.

  4. If the printer connects successfully, a confirmation receipt will print from the Wi-Fi printer.



NOTE: If using a Mobile Hotspot for connectivity then make sure the hotspot is broadcasting both the 2.4 ghz &  5 ghz bandwidth. The kitchen printer does not catch the WiFi signal until these bandwidths were turned on. If you are experiencing trouble with connecting a kitchen printer to a Mobile Hotspot, please check that both bandwidths are being broadcasted.
