The TicketSource thermal ticket print server is designed to operate on systems running Microsoft Windows 7, Windows 8 or
Windows 10 and requires an available Internet connection when in use.

printer and its printer driver to be used with the print server, as per the manufacturer’s instructions.

Please note that due to the nature and wide of variety of thermal ticket printers available, we are unable to provide technical
support on individual thermal printer installations. You can test your thermal ticket printer’s successful installation by using
