      Printer Profiles for KDS

      Overview

      This lesson covers the process of setting up printer profiles for KDS and allocating the profiles to specific products

      • Bepoz can cater to Print particular products to designated printers using Printer Profiles

      • KDS is a type of printer and also has the capability to use printer profiles for a designated KDS

      • This is used for venues that have different locations to make or prepare food

      • e.g. A restaurant kitchen has a cold larder and hot larder section and would like all the hot larder orders print to the hot loader area and the cold larder orders will print to the cold larder area
