Print Queues

Print queues are used to make sure products sent from the POS to the kitchen print out at the right stations. A Print Queue can be also be used with the Rezku POS Kitchen Display System (KDS) instead of printing to paper. 

Setup of print queues is composed of 3 elements

1. Creating the print queue
2. Assigning products to the queue
3. Assigning the queue to a device (printer or KDS)

Adding a Print Queue

• Click the Add Print Queue button at the top of the screen

• In the Edit Print Queue panel:

  • Name-- Name the Print Queue
    • The name should be based on the station it will be associated with (e.g, Kitchen, Bar, Grill)
  • Smart KDS -- Select if the queue will be used with Rezku Smart KDS instead of a printer
    • Route To -- When Smart KDS is selected, you have to option to route bumped tickets to another KDS station.
  • Global -- Select if the print queue device assignment will be global. This means all tablets obey the same printer rules.
    • If deselected, queue assignments will be made locally for each POS station.

To return to these settings after saving, click the Edit Details button next to the queue name.
