When i close a check through the Micros API it returns the print line array which i am storing in a database for later use.

I would also like to store a digital copy of the receipts when checks are closed normally on the workstations via Cash or Credit Card and I would like to have it in the same format as it is printed on the Micros printers.

So far i have failed to find a way to do this without having to build the check receipt myself through a SIM script.

It would be excellent if i could configure a workstation to print to two receipt printers. I could configure one as being the physical printer and the other as a disk file, however i cannot find a way to do this.

Any ideas?




Do you want some custom SIM scripts developed. Contact me via my website
 
This also ignore ALL configuration settings, and only prints menu items so would obviously need to be expanded...
 
Suggestion: Define the memo check printer to be the text file, then automate the printing of a memo check for all seats whenever the print check funcion is called.
 
Can you use a memo check printer on a full check, or only when seat filtering is enabled?
You'll have to get rid of the "print shared check" buttons if you use them. That function prints to the memo check printer.
