Hi, how can make the notepad show the ticket at the same time that the printer print a ticket?. For now on If I select in the ticket print as printer type: (demo printer notepad), is working but no print ticket. Maybe we need to create other print with the notepad configuration to be able to print ticket and show in notepad at the same time??

Thanks in advance.

Add a second print job one for the notepad and one for the actual printer.
