I need a printer template for my restaurant

I’m trying to fiddle around with the printer template formatting, but I can’t get it to work, I even tried removing everything and starting from scratch.
I then copied someones template to put my restaurants name in bold and centered and a larger font. I got this below:

  1. Why is it like this?
  2. Why is there a G before total? (appeared somewhere else randomly too)
  3. How can I add lines at the bottom as when I try to print, the end of the receipt is still inside the printer and the only way I can get all of it is when I click on ‘Feed’ on my printer.

Thanks

Change ticket type to HTML Printer to make this template work.

I now get this

This is my template:

It does not fit on paper and wraps. Decrease Line Character Count setting of printer.

Nothing in the div appears at all. The receipt starts from Table number

Do you gave other templates that are easily editable?

All I want really is restaurant name, phone number, product list inc quantity and price. Total, tendered and change given too.

Remove <T> and close both div tags with </div>

Here is a sample.

It’s still not coming up but thanks for your help anyway.

  • Pictures of your printout are good to show.
  • Pictures of your Template doesn’t help much.
  • Copy and Paste your Template in a post.
  • Highlight the entire Template in the post, then click this symbol: </> from the post toolbar to turn it into a Code-Block. Then we can examine, edit and re-post a template that could work.
  • Since you are using HTML formatting (<div> tags etc.) ensure your have your Printer defined as HTML, not Ticket in Manage > Settings > Printers.

My apologies,

here is my template so far:

[LAYOUT]
-- General layout
<div style="font-size:15px;text-align:center;font-family:'Tahoma'">
    <C00>ARCHIE'S
    </div>
    <div style="font-weight:bold;font-size:16px">
    <C00>Mediterranean Food Products
    <C00>Tel. 02089612050
    <F>-
    <\div>
{ENTITIES}
<L00>
<F>-
{ORDERS}
<F>=
<EB>
{SERVICES}
<J10>Total:|{TICKET TOTAL}
{PAYMENTS}
<DB>
<F>

[DISCOUNTS]
<J00>{CALCULATION NAME} %{CALCULATION AMOUNT}|{CALCULATION TOTAL}

[SERVICES]
<J00>{CALCULATION NAME}|{CALCULATION TOTAL}

[PAYMENTS]
<J00>{PAYMENT NAME}|{PAYMENT AMOUNT}

[ORDERS]
-- Default format for orders
<J00>- {QUANTITY} {NAME}|{TOTAL PRICE}
{ORDER TAGS}

[ORDERS:Gift]
-- Format for gifted orders
<J00>- {QUANTITY} {NAME}|**GIFT**
{ORDER TAGS}

[ORDERS:Void]
-- Nothing will print for void lines

[ORDER TAGS]
-- Format for order tags
<J00> * {ORDER TAG NAME} | {ORDER TAG PRICE}

[ENTITIES:Table]
-- Table entity format
<L00>Table: {ENTITY NAME}

[ENTITIES:Customer]
-- Customer entity format
<J00>Customer: {ENTITY NAME} | {ENTITY DATA:Phone}

First glance you have two different div close tags one is wrong syntax.

Do I remove the </div> or the <\div>

I can’t even try to remove one and test it as my printer has stopped working.

Correct syntax is /div on mobile so could not show the <>

PS.

[DISCOUNTS]
<J00>{CALCULATION NAME} %{CALCULATION AMOUNT}|{CALCULATION TOTAL}

[SERVICES]
<J00>{CALCULATION NAME}|{CALCULATION TOTAL}

[PAYMENTS]
<J00>{PAYMENT NAME}|{PAYMENT AMOUNT}

[ORDERS]
-- Default format for orders
<J00>- {QUANTITY} {NAME}|{TOTAL PRICE}
{ORDER TAGS}

[ORDERS:Gift]
-- Format for gifted orders
<J00>- {QUANTITY} {NAME}|**GIFT**
{ORDER TAGS}

[ORDERS:Void]
-- Nothing will print for void lines

[ORDER TAGS]
-- Format for order tags
<J00> * {ORDER TAG NAME} | {ORDER TAG PRICE}

[ENTITIES:Table]
-- Table entity format
<L00>Table: {ENTITY NAME}

[ENTITIES:Customer]
-- Customer entity format
<J00>Customer: {ENTITY NAME} | {ENTITY DATA:Phone}

Are any of these necessary for the receipt if i just want restaurant name time date, order list with qty and price, as well as grand total and change given?

Read through tutorials and try different things until you get one your happy with. Instead of deleting just comment it out. Can just take comment off if you decide you want it.

OK thanks, and is this the correct one?

[LAYOUT]

That is correct div tag yes.
