Thanks for reaching out, @lion342

To stop your printer from automatically printing a receipt with every purchase, follow these steps to adjust your Printer Profile settings:

  1. On your Point of Sale, navigate to More > Settings > Hardware > Printers > Profiles.
  2. Select your Printer Profile's name.
  3. In the Profile DetailsPrinter Defaults section, click Edit.
  4. Choose Receipts and change Print receipts Automatically to Manually.
  5. Click Save.

Please note that you need to complete these steps on each device connected to the printer.

I hope this helps! If you have any more questions, feel free to reach out. 😊

It is October 2025, and I don't see the option PROFILE DETAILS when I got into Printer Profile

Is there another way to do this?
