printer connect

Is it possible to connect multiple mC-Print3s and one Ipad?
We would like to set it up that we get the same slip from 3 different devices in one order.

@yusu you can have multiple printers and they can all print order tickets/receipts from a single ipad.  The only reliable way to do it is with wi-fi printers.  You may be limited to how many usb printers you can connect, same with blue tooth.  But I have an ipad with 4 printers associated.  One prints online order ticket receipt, another the kitchen ticket, and another the kds all at the same time.

 

So with that printer, just go with wi-fi or ethernet and have them go through your router and you can have a printer party.

Thank you for your response.
Star mC-Print3s is this. https://www.star-m.jp/products/s_print/mcprint3/manual/en/index.htm
I could connect one of them by bluetooth and other one is by ethernet.
so If I had three of them it can't connect? Should I get another wifi printer?

Actually I'd like to put the three order printer at bar, kitchen, and other place.

@yusu Just get all 3 as ethernet or wifi.  I would skip bluetooth all together.

 

Here are one of my locations and 3 of these printers are all ethernet, but a wi-fi version would look the same.
