Note!
From Idealpos v8 Build 5 and newer, Customer Name support has been added to Zebra Labels.
When a Customer has been added to the sale and the Customer purchases a Stock Item which has a Zebra Kitchen Label Printer enabled, their name will be included on the Zebra Kitchen Label for easily identifying the item and dispensing it to the correct Customer.
Note!
From Idealpos v8 Build 10 and newer, Date/Time support has been added to Zebra Labels which is hard-coded as enabled.
This will print the Date/Time on the Zebra Label Kitchen Printer in a similar fashion to a standard Kitchen Docket.
This feature allows you to print a label which can placed on the product for the dispense to the correct customer.
This will be beneficial mostly in fast food and convenience stores, where people order take-away that can take a few minutes to prepare.
When you order a kebab, fish and chips or Chinese, your meals can have a sticker on them with the order details, so you can confirm that it is your order before you open it.
The staff dispensing the meal to the customer might not be the one preparing it, so it allows for errors to be minimal.
To be able to use this functionality, you will need to have a ZDesigner GC420d printer.
Note that the Zebra GC420d printer has been discontinued in 2020 and superseded by the Zebra ZD220d. When setting up the ZD220d, ensure that you use the latest drivers that are available for this printer.
