POS - system requirements
Web browser & operating systems
Any modern web browser & operating systems can be used to access Qblue Inventory,
with the exception of when automatic receipt printing is required, which calls for
- Firefox browser
- Windows 10 or higher operating system
Eftpos integrations
Currently, Qblue Inventory supports the following Eftpos integration types:
- In Australia: Square Terminal and Smartpay
- In New Zealand: Smartpay and Verifone
Receipt printing
There are two printing methods on Qblue Inventory:
- Automatic printing (see below) - supported only on Microsoft Windows OS
- If there is no receipt printing is found, then it reverts to printing the A4 invoices
To setup automatic printing, please refer to this article: Auto print client setup
We recommend the Epson TM series of receipt printers that support the Epson ESC/POS commands. Check the printer specs from the respective manufacturer's website.
For example:
Epson TM-T82II
eReceipts
The "Email eReceipt" option will be available when finalising a POS order, providing that the customer has a valid email address.
Cash tills
We recommend a cash till that has a RJ12 port to be able to connect to the recept printer by means of a cash drawer kick cable.
Barcode scanners
We recommend the Zebra range of barcode scanners for example:
Zebra DS2208
Zebra LS2208
Zebra DS9308
Note, the above scanners do not support wireless scanning.
Configuration required on Qblue
- For receipts (including eReceipts), choose the different options available from the Receipts design page
- (optional) setup automatic print client for Windows 10 or higher
- (optional) turn off the A4 printing on POS, this is done from the sales settings page under the title "Print A4 invoice instead of receipt"
