Also just what I want to continue, the practice of kitchen staff touching filthy paper orders/receipts while they prepare the food that goes into my body.
Kitchen staff doesn't touch receipts. . .
and 85 % of restaurants use kitchen Printers where they are touching "Filthy Paper orders"
hell there are some that are still using Hand written tickets - which is way less sanitary than Kitchen printers. -

they have the option to email receipts, and they dont have a kitchen video system yet.
so how would the cooks know what the order wasPut in a kitchen video system. The wait staff takes the order, punches it into a tablet at the counter, that order gets sent to another iPad/some other that's in the kitchen.
Or they just yell the order to the kitchen.
Or something like RedRobin has where you as the waiter order whatever right from the table and you have no "waiter".

in the same vein--we wash our hands constantly with antibacterial soap but somehow it's enough in the US to just use paper to clean our anus during the day. Wild

I'm not sure there is a difference between the paper orders/receipts vs multi-user tongs, spatulas, counters, pump sauce dispensers and even touch screens. Seems the paper orders is the least of your worries.

hell there are some that are still using Hand written tickets - which is way less sanitary than Kitchen printers.I completely understand, and I would prefer to not have humans at all touch my food if possible, I'm saying more hands off the better.

Is there special WiFi or regular WiFi. Gosh did I not buy the Special WiFi equipment. . .
....
"regular Wifi" was used in the sense of Business wifi that's open to everything, the AP is supposed to add a layer of protection to the POS system (ipads) so it's more or less " Segregated " from the other devices on the wifi on the other side of the ap, which also "keeps the printers on the same network as the Tablet"is how it was explained to me

A vLAN would do this also and wouldn't require separate hardware.

Ah, well they're a credit card processor who decided to buy out a POS company and take their product put their name on it and sell it as a pos system. so..

@WrCombs I just have to say, talking about PoS systems and using the PoS acronym is absolutely enthralling. Because it seems like every PoS system is actually a pos.

I'm sure it would, I dont make this decision, + Drives more hardware sales = More money for the company - is my guess.

Of course it's sales based. More hardware, more markup.
Of course there is the "we have physically separated LANs" security point to consider, but the approach is purely sales based.
It's stupidly simple to setup 2 WiFi/LAN networks, but just marginally more involved to setup a vLAN. Which I'm guessing is outside of the scope of your business.

We do, but because our kids' cousins are the same ages and do public school, we give them summers off so that they can spend time together. Which they do literally every day.
