Overview
The “Printing Receipts and KOTs from the Same Printer” option in
SalesPlay POS allows you to configure a single printer to print both
customer receipts and Kitchen Order Tickets (KOTs).
This setup streamlines operations, reduces the need for multiple printers, and simplifies workflows —
especially in restaurants where both customer receipts and kitchen order tickets are required.
By optimizing resources, businesses can improve efficiency while reducing hardware costs.
Key Benefits
- Streamlined Operations: Communicate directly with kitchen or bar staff, improving coordination.
- Space & Cost Optimization: Ideal for small businesses looking to reduce printer hardware and save space.
- Efficient Workflow: Orders are instantly sent to the kitchen, increasing service speed and customer satisfaction.

Troubleshooting – KOT Not Printing
If the printer is configured but KOT is not printing, verify the following:
- Ensure “Print receipts and bills” is enabled.
- Confirm “Print KOT / BOT” is enabled.
- Check that “Printer Groups” is activated.
- Save all changes after verification.
After reviewing these settings, the KOT should print correctly.
