Allow orders to be printed to a different station printer
Allow an order to be printed to another station printer on the account. Orders flagged with certain labels should be able to be printed to another station instead of having to put in an additional SP700. From a "Server Station" I want anything named "Drinks" to print to a "Bar Station" and anything labeled "Food" to print to the SP700 in the kitchen. This is a VERY common setup for bars and restaurants and having an extra printer behind the bar is a cumbersome and crowded setup.

Drinks to bar printer and food to kitchen printer would be extremely helpful

Each printer that is set-up should have its own name and path for food and or beverage items to be assigned to it. Such as a server printer to print out receipts; kitchen printer that orders go to; bar printer for drink orders to go to.
Each server and bar printer should also be able to print receipts. -

Amen!!!! When I finally decided to put in a bar printer (which was long overdue, because we switched to Clover in Covid and had to build business back up to needing a bartender) I got it all set up and ready for dinner service tonight. My server came to me and said "my drinks are not printing". Sure enough they won't print because they have to be FIRED and they only way to do it is FIRE ALL. Well as we all know in the restaurant industry drinks come often and randomly. It isn't like food that you order and send in courses. So if they were to hit fire all it would send all the food and all the drinks. We are a prix fixe dinner experience, so fire all doesn't work. They came out with the awesome feature of coursing, which is standard, but it just got re-released to operate better. Now this is one more step to performing better. I'm fine with having a separate printer, but I want to be able to designate one printer to fire upon saving a ticket and one printer to print on command. Please fix this...it is so standard!!!!

Allow setting any Station printer as an Order Printer on any device.
I have 3 Stations.
Bar Corner
Server
PatioI want to have the Bar Corner station printer be used as the Order printer for any drinks that the servers ring in on the Server station or the Patio station.
Currently I have to place a 2nd printer (Star kitchen printer) right next to the printer that is connected to the Bar Corner station, taking up space. It also detracts from the minimal look that of Stations design.
