Setting up a point of sale
Check what your POS software supports before buying hardware - drivers and connections differ between brands.
Receipt printers
80 mm thermal printers are standard for shops and restaurants; 58 mm models are compact and suit mobile setups. Thermal printing needs no ink.
Connection
USB is simplest for one till; Ethernet or Wi-Fi printers can be shared, for example a kitchen printer in a restaurant.
Barcode scanners
1D scanners read standard product barcodes. 2D scanners also read QR codes and codes on phone screens.
Common questions about pos & office
58 mm or 80 mm receipt printer?
80 mm for most counters - it fits more detail per line. 58 mm for small spaces and portable printers.
Do I need a 2D barcode scanner?
Yes, if you scan QR codes or codes shown on phone screens. A 1D laser scanner only reads traditional barcodes.
