Trying to figure out how to get the handheld device to send liquor tickets to the bar printer. Bar printer is Epson; connected to ipad stand. I am not able to aquire IP address from printer as i believe it shares IP with ipad; not sure how that works.

Sorry we miss your post @gi-liederkranz!

It sounds like you currently have a Epson printer with ethernet connection, is that correct? Or is it connecting to the iPad via a different mode (WiFi, etc.)? If you can give some more information on the model of the printer, that'd help me a lot in guiding you towards the right steps for setting up!

I did have a quick look at our printer compability checklist, and there are a number of Epson that will work with the handheld device, and some that won't. If we have the specific model, I can definitely double-check here.
