Hey. Does anyone know if Epson T82IIIL USB receipt printer at the square register can also print receipts and Kitchen tab at the same time to then put in the kitchen? Or is it purely a receipt printer?

Hi @oneluckyduck! 👋

The Epson T82IIIL USB receipt printer can indeed print both receipts and order tickets when connected to your Square Register.

The key difference between a standard receipt printer like the Epson T82IIIL and a dedicated kitchen printer such as the Star Micronics SP700 is their environmental durability. Kitchen printers (and their paper) are specifically designed to withstand high temperatures in kitchen environments, ensuring that order ticket text remains clear and legible despite heat and humidity.

While you can certainly use the Epson T82IIIL USB receipt printer for both functions, please be aware that if your kitchen environment gets particularly hot, you might experience fading text on your order tickets over time.

Please feel free to reach out if you have any other questions. 😊
