Printing via the print center (hub mode)

All cash registers send their receipts to the printing center in the Servire Hub. Here's how to activate them and see them in the cash register.

In hub mode, the cash registers no longer print themselves. They send each receipt to the print center in the Servire Hub, which then sends it to the printers. This is worthwhile when there are many cash registers or when not every device can reach every printer.

Turn on

You don't activate hub mode at the cash register, but in the Servire Hub using the Print Center switch: Set up Print Center. The cash registers will switch over automatically.

This is how you can recognize him at the checkout.

In the printer list: At the top it says "Print jobs are processed via the Servire Hub . Local printer settings are disabled." If no print center is currently connected, a red banner warns that receipts cannot be printed. In that case, open the Hub in your browser or launch the desktop app.

In the settings: Under Settings, next to Printer, there is the note Hub mode active.

The Print Online Orders button and the menu for open print jobs have been removed. Messages to the printer and opening the cash drawer are now considered print jobs sent to the print center; on iPhones and iPads, this also applies to reprints from existing print jobs.

The POS system and print hub use the same network printers: what you configure on the POS system is also visible to the hub, and vice versa. The hub does not recognize Bluetooth or USB printers connected to a POS system. The print hub only prints to Epson printers via a web browser, but it can print to other printers using the desktop app.

If an iPhone or iPad has any open receipts when switching, it asks under Switch to Print Center: Transfer sends them to the print center, Discard deletes them, Later leaves them.
