How to set up an 80mm receipt printer

1. Connect the printer

Barkat prints 80mm thermal receipts.

• On a computer: plug the printer in by USB and install the driver that came with it, so it shows in your computer's printer list.
• On an Android phone: turn the printer on and pair it in your phone's Bluetooth settings first. Bluetooth printing works in the Barkat Android app.

2. Print a test receipt

Click Settings in the left menu, then Printer, and click Print a test receipt.

On a computer, the print window opens. Choose your 80mm printer and set Margins to None. That stops the receipt from coming out cut off or tiny.

On the Android app, tap Choose printer, pick your printer and tick Remember this printer, so it is used every time.

Watch out: If the phone can't find the printer, turn on Bluetooth, allow Nearby devices for Barkat, then tap Search again.

3. Choose what the receipt shows

Open Settings, then Receipt. Fill in your Shop address, Shop phone and a Footer message such as "No return without receipt. Shukriya!". Pharmacies can add the Drug licence no.. Leave a field empty to hide it. The Live preview shows how the receipt will look. Click Save receipt.

Tip: No printer? Bills still save. Share the receipt on WhatsApp or save it as a PDF instead.

Done: Your receipts print on the 80mm printer with your shop's details.
