The Star mC-Print3 is the printer Opero is built around: it prints guest receipts at the counter, receipts for kiosk orders, and tickets for your kitchen stations. It is fast, it loads paper from the front, and its small footprint leaves room on a busy counter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOne model, every job.\u003c\/strong\u003e Counter receipts, kiosk receipts, kitchen station tickets and the order (expo) ticket all print on the same model, so staff learn one printer and you keep one kind of paper.

Each one plugs by USB into its own kiosk, register tablet or kitchen screen, and each of those devices takes one printer. A printer plugged into a kiosk prints that kiosk's receipts. One plugged into a register prints that register's receipts and opens its cash drawer. Every kitchen station's tickets print on one kitchen printer per location, and the order (expo) ticket, if you turn it on, prints there too unless you choose an order printer. One mC-Print3 can do every job, so a small restaurant can run on one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIn the kitchen\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe mC-Print3 prints on thermal paper, and heat darkens thermal paper.
