Your LightKitch orders printed automatically in the kitchen
LightKitch manages your virtual restaurants; this printer handles their physical output. As soon as an order arrives in your LightKitch interface, the ticket is printed at the preparation station, with an audible and visual alert. This is especially useful in dark kitchens, where several brands operate on the same production line. The printer operates independently over 4G, without relying on the local network.
