Note: Required min version 1.79.1. Contact Shift4 Support if you are on a lower version.

This setup can use IP or USB. This improves the ability to utilize Glass across a site by directing printing to existing USB printers and simplifies printer configuration (by eliminating the need to set up a specific IP printer for each Glass if all users have a Default Glass Printer set).

Notes:

• SkyTab Glass requires a local POS WiFi network. 
• You may need manager permissions to complete the setup. 
• It can be combined with the default printer by device setup to allow the SkyTab Glass to still print if no Default Printer is set at the employee level.

How to Configure from SkyTab POS:

1. Navigate to Manager > Settings > Users > Employees.
2. Select the employee you wish to set this for.
3. Select the dropdown for Default Glass Printer (or Default Tableside Printer if configuring from a SkyTab Workstation).
4. Choose a printer from the list.
5. This employee will now send all printed receipts to the selected printer by default when using ANY SkyTab Glass device.
   

How to Configure from LBM:

1. Sign in to Lighthouse Business Manager (LBM).
2. Navigate to Workforce > Employees.
3. Select the employee you wish to set this for.
4. Select the dropdown for Tableside Printer. 
5. Choose a printer from the list. 
6. This employee will now send all printed receipts to the selected printer by default when using ANY SkyTab Glass device.
   

Note: On SkyTab Glass, this setting will show as Default Glass Printer. On Workstations / LBM, this will show as Default Tableside Printer.
