Example of hardware setup for receipt printers:
A) Using your browser print feature
This solution is the one available by default, it uses the standard "Print" feature of your browser.
If you can print from your local computer (from your browser) on your standard printer, you should be able to print TakePos receipts with no need of special setup. TakePos will open the receipt in a popup on your browser as well as the print option of your browser will also open so all you have to do will be to click on the Print button.
