[Wactclc-alma] Loan Receipt Printers

[Guidry, Wade]

This newer method for loan receipt printing is actually pretty easy to set up, so I will try to demo it in tomorrow's regular Alma / Primo call.

And here's another customer-developed printed loan receipt solution, that was just posted to Alma-L today.

This one looks easier to use than the first one:

Alma is designed to deliver loan receipts via email, not to hardcopy printers.


If you want to try to print loan receipts to a traditional circ desk receipt printer, you can try the following customer-written extension:


https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Community_Knowledge/Print_loans_receipts_directly_via_browser_extension?


It looks interesting, but will come with all the usual caveats of any kind of customer-based customization... effort on the institution side, lack of support, good possibility of loss of functionality with changes to Alma.


My recommendation is to stick with emailed loan receipts.

Hi All,

BTC is looking to purchase receipt printers. I know this question was posted before. I am looking for receipt printers that are compatible with Alma. Are any of you using loan receipt printers? If so, what kind?

Best Regards,
Traci
