Reselecting a Printer
If your printer is already configured, you can simply click the printer name under the “Windows Printer Name” column to select the printer.
Once the terminal can see all the printers it will be printing to in its spooler, go to the POS Administrator Menu. Select Printer Set-up. You will see a screen similar to this:
Identify Your Printer
Knowing which printer you’re setting up is very important. If you set up the wrong printer you can mess up existing terminal and working printer configurations. Please take the time to read this and be sure you know what you’re doing.
First, you need to identify your terminal number. There are three methods of doing this, the first requiring a small amount of Windows knowledge, which we cannot provide you. The last two methods may not work if you’re on a version of the software more than three years old.

Now that you’ve identified your terminal number, you need to identify the receipt printer assigned to this terminal. Go to your POS Administrator and then to Terminal Setup. Enter in your terminal number and you’ll see the printer assigned to this terminal. This is a number, 1 - 24, that identifies which 'Unit" in the printer setup is used.
