Hello All,
Might have already been answered but I will ask again. Running Aloha 5.2.8 I have three terminals and Term 1 com 1 runs the reciept printer and term 2 com 4 runs the kitchen printer. I want to add another printer to term 3 for second reciept printer. I already know had to add printers. My question is? Right now when a server prints a guest reciept and presses print from any terminal the recepit will print at term 1 printer. If I add another reciept printer to Term 3 how will it only print term 3 reciepts to the new printer on Term 3. How do I configure this option. I still want term 1 and term 2 to print to term 1 com 1 but I want term 3 to print to term 3 for reciept only. Is the anwser in Maintenance/terminal/term 3/ default printer change from reciept 1 to new reciept 2 as its default?
 
I set BOH for terminal 3 as LOCAL #1 (NEW PRINTER) as default and under printer maintenance/printer LOCAL #1 as term 3 com 1. I have restarted both BOH and terminal. Still prints to reciept 1 on term 1 from term 3 and will not print to new local #1 on term 3. Printer works when moved to term#1 so I know printer works.. I set all com 1 port settings on term 3 the same as term 1. (they are both TM 88's)..
Any ideas what to try next?
