Tips & Best Practices
-
Use Immediately for live orders: When orders are placed for ASAP fulfilment, immediate printing is the most useful.
-
Use Prep + Immediately for scheduled orders: If customers schedule orders, the dual print pattern reminds the kitchen close to fulfilment time.
-
Test the timing: Place a test order to confirm prints land when expected.
