Choose some general settings for this printer
- Print Logo. This requires that you upload the graphic file to the printer as per the printer manufacturer's specifications.
- Disable individual item printing. This will override the feature, specified on item printer configuration, which prints a separate ticket for each quantity of the item ordered. For example, if a ticket has 4 burgers on it, 4 tickets will print with 1 burger each. But, for an expedite printer, you may want to define a template that cancels this feature.
