Do kitchen printers print automatically in DAXTOP?

Yes. When an order is confirmed — at the counter, on a waiter tablet, at a kiosk, or from a delivery platform — it fires to the kitchen automatically. Nobody presses print: the ticket appears at the right prep station, and kitchen displays sequence items by prep time so fries, burgers, and drinks land in the bag together.

Routing is per station: drinks to the bar printer, hot food to the line, desserts to the pastry station. Multi-station orders split automatically, and each station sees only what it needs to make, with the table or order number attached.

Printers and screens

Kitchens can run thermal ticket printers, kitchen display screens, or both. Printing uses the same AnyPrint bridge as receipts — USB ESC/POS printers, no drivers — and keeps working during internet outages because the whole print path is local.

Printers, screens, or both?

Ticket printers are cheap, legible in a greasy line, and survive heat; kitchen display screens sequence and re-order items dynamically and never run out of paper. Busy kitchens often combine them: screens on the main line for sequencing, a printer at expo for the physical ticket that travels with the tray.

Whichever you run, the routing rules live in DAXTOP: which categories fire where, what happens to combined orders, and how delivery-platform orders enter the queue. Changing the kitchen layout is a settings change, not a rewiring.
