Of course I spent the extra money to get a few 2-color thermal printers. Now I can no longer get 2-color thermal paper for them, Isn’t that friggin special…
It looks like I am transitioning to inkjet printers for prep & customer receipt tickets. I am trying out the Samsung SRP-500 receipt printer (Ethernet connected)
I have found that the extra cost of 2-color pays for itself rapidly by me not seeing as many mistakes made in the kitchen.
In red print I have : Ticket Number, Order date, promise time & promise dates, add-ons, comments, etc. By making them stand out in bright red, and bolder fonts, mistakes have gone to nearly zero. instead of “I didn’t see that” when it says carryout , Inside, or Catering.
On the customer receipt, I have the order number in bright red, and no more “I Don’t know what my number is” happening as much.
I also added our web addy, & facebook info in bright red and saw traffic & likes increase too.
I tried impact 2-color, but ribbons dull so fast they became difficult to read after a very short time, and long loud print times too.
Anyone else using 2-color?
