Getting Started with Rundoo ยท Transactions

Skip the Extra Click

Set your receipt printing once, and still choose what shows and which printer.

Step-by-step walkthrough 3 min read Companion to the 3:37 video

You know the rhythm of a busy counter. Ring someone up, hand them their receipt, on to the next. On a packed Saturday you will do that a hundred times, and every time you stop to tell Rundoo what to print. Quick Print lets you make that choice once, up front, so you are not making it on every single sale.

Where it lives

Two settings that work together

You set this up in the back office. Flip on Admin mode (top right), then on the left open Settings and go to Communications. Scroll down and you will see two sections that work together: Printing and Quick print.

The Communications settings page showing the Number of thermal receipts printed field and the Quick print toggles
The Printing count and the Quick print toggles, plus the per-location printer table, all on the Communications settings page.

Do this

Set it up once
  1. Decide how many copies

    Under Printing, look at Number of thermal receipts printed. It often starts at two, one for the customer and one for you. If you only need the customer's copy, set it to one.

  2. Flip on the master switch

    In the Quick print section, turn on Quick print receipts. That is the master switch, and it is what makes your receipts print on their own.

  3. Pick the format and whether prices show

    Turn on Quick print thermal receipts for that slip at the counter (leave Quick print full page receipts off unless you want a full sheet). Then choose whether to Show prices on quick printed receipts. You are telling Rundoo, once, exactly how you want a receipt to come out.

  4. Point it at your printer

    Find your location in the table and pick your printer under Default quick print thermal printer. The dropdown only lists printers that are connected, so if you do not see yours, that is the thing to sort out first. This one is per location, so each store points at its own printer.

  5. See it at the counter

    Ring up a sale and take payment. On a brand-new sale, Rundoo still shows you a quick confirmation on purpose, so you always get a look before it prints, but nothing is left to choose. It is already set the way you wanted. One tap on Print and you are done. On reprints, quotes, and will calls, it prints straight away, no pop-up at all.

    A completed sale with a green confirmation reading print jobs sent, check the thermal printer
    Hit Print and the paper is just there. Rundoo confirms the job went to your thermal printer.
