Printer Set-Up
If you utilise a Supply'd scanner you can take advantage of the Supply'd print server to print directly to Bluetooth and WiFi label and receipt printers from a Supply'd scanner.
Printers are configured on an account level allowing you to set them up once and then access them on any of your Supply'd scanners. In Printer Set-up you can set your printers to print your labels or receipts straight from Supply'd. To configure a printer follow the settings below.
This document will take you through the steps for:
