Peripherals Overview

Peripherals, or external accessories like printers and cash drawers, allow merchants to use tools that make managing their business simple. These can easily be connected to your Poynt Smart Terminal using a USB or network connection. 

Note: Not all peripherals are supported by all processors. Please consult your Reseller Organization for more information.

Manage external accessories or peripherals by accessing the swipe-down menu, selecting Settings from the blue bar, and clicking “Accessory”.

On the Manage Accessories page, you will find the option to:

• Add a new USB, network, or bluetooth peripheral
• Test peripherals
• Toggle On or Off peripherals
• Remove Peripherals

Your Poynt P61 and P61B terminals come equipped with a built in printer that you can use to print receipts and settlement reports. This will be used as your default printer unless you update Printer Preferences or toggle off your Poynt printer in Manage Accessories.

Once you connect an external printer above, you may want to use multiple printers for difference receipt types. You will need to edit “Receipt Printer Preferences” (found under Business Settings) to determine which receipts you would like to print.
