By connecting a supported thermal printer, the restaurant is able to print the order confirmation after the order has been accepted in the restaurant order taking app.
Depending on the model, the thermal printer is connected to the order taking device by LAN or Bluetooth. Since the LAN connection method is the most reliable, it is strongly recommended that the restaurant buy a LAN printer if they wish to auto-print order information.
