How do I set up my Receipt printer in Leap?

Answer

To access “settings” click on the username in the top right corner of your Polaris Leap screen.

Click SETTINGS from the drop-down menu.

a. The first tab is PRINT OPTIONS. This is where you select the settings for your receipt

printer.

b. The suggested settings are:

i. Check in – Hold Slip

This prints a receipt when items are checked in and fill a patron’s hold. It displays

Patron name, unclaimed date, held date, pickup location, title, call number, item

barcode, assigned branch, and the patron’s phone number.

OR

Check in – Hold Pickup Slip

This prints a receipt when books are checked in and fill a patron’s hold at a

library that has self-serve hold pick up. It displays partial patron names, the last 7

digits of a patron’s barcode, the hold expiry date, and the item title and barcode.

ii. Check out - Check out receipts

This prints a receipt when items are checked out to a patron and includes the

item information and due date.

iii. Patron Status – Checkout receipt and Fine Receipt

This prints a receipt when fees have been paid or waived. It provides information

about the charge including the amount that was paid or waived.

c. Once you’ve made your selections, click SAVE.
