Printer Scripts

Post by Diamatron »

We were able to customize the Graphical Kitchen Printer Script to have all the info and fonts we wanted. But we haven't figured out how to get a 'Red font' to print. We wanted 'Delivery' in red and possibly the exclusions on the items to print red.

The colors won't work in the graphical modes since the entire print job is sent as a bitmap, and the 2-color POS printers can only print colors while in character based mode, and can only change colors once per line of text.

I would instead opt for a big font that stands out for delivery orders.

There doesn't seem to be a good default script for the Epson 220 kitchen printer, when we select this for our kitchen printer its more of a customer copy type look.

The Epson TM-U2xx is just a default setting, not a kitchen script. To get a kitchen script choose one of the Graphical Kitchen scripts for a default. These are kitchen oriented and drop off a lot of the information that isn't needed by the kitchen staff.
