Dynamic printer or print format selection for receipts, KOTs etc., based on certain conditions
Maintenance > Resources
Following example determine printer based on table name. Here orders from tables with name starting with DI goes to printer 1, table names starting with GA goes to printer 2 and orders from all other tables goes to printer 3. This checking can be used in Printer.Ticket, Printer.KOT, etc., on the element <ticket>
<output> ... ... ... #if($place.startsWith("DI")) <ticket printer = "1"> #elseif($place.startsWith("GA")) <ticket printer = "2"> #else <ticket printer = "3"> #end ... ... ... </ticket> </output>
If one wants to dynamically choose the receipt format, do like below;
<output> ... ... ... #if($place.startsWith("DI")) <ticket printer = "1"> ... ... ... </ticket> #elseif($place.startsWith("GA")) <ticket printer = "2"> ... ... ... </ticket> #else <ticket printer = "3"> ... ... ... </ticket> #end ... ... ... </output> Save & restart
