      Nice to know

      1. If you want the printer to print a receipt after every transaction, and you do not want to press print yourself, activate “Print receipt after every transaction”.
      2. If you have a scanner connected to the printer, and you want to use it with the Shopbox POS app, activate “Scanner connected through printer”..
