Settings
The Settings screen on each iPad controls device-specific options. These are different from the Back Office POS settings, which apply to your whole business.
Tap More → Settings to open them.
General
- Receipt Width (Columns) — how wide the guest receipt prints. If text (typically the business name) is cut off, tap the up/down arrows next to Receipt Width to switch between 42 and 48 columns.
- Kitchen Printing Deferred Time — how far ahead a future order prints to the kitchen. Choose between 1 and 5 hours.
- Auto Print Online Orders — when more than one iPad is in your fleet, only one should have this on. Otherwise the same online order prints multiple times.
- Quick Service Mode — when on, skips the table-select screen. Use this for counter service.
- Drive-Thru Mode — when on, allows this iPad to take Drive-Thru orders.
- Default Order Type — pre-selects an order type when staff open Make Order.
- Show Rotating Tip Editor — turns on the integrated tip-and-signature flow at payment. Available only for semi-integrated PAX terminals and Stripe readers.

Using the Rotating Tip Editor
