Overview
The e-Reception Book allows you to print visitor badges, including your company logo, visitor name, and other contact details.
Before starting the below, please ensure your printer is connected to the same WiFi as the iPad; you can find a user manual for our supported printer below.

By IP Printing
If you would like to pair your label printer to the e-Reception Book through IP Address, please follow the steps provided below:
Once you have done the steps in the IP Address video, please continue with the following steps:
Once you have done this, click "Device Refresh" in the top right corner of the dashboard.
Once you have completed the steps above, you will see a white printer icon in the top left of your screen on the iPad (see image below). This shows that the printer is connected to your e-Reception Book and can now be used.
We recommend pairing your label printer through IP Address for a secure connection and to avoid signal loss between the label printer and iPad.
