Printing Multiple Receipts on Receipt Paper

Iman Asfaw

I was wondering if anyone else knows how to print multiple receipts (3 at a time) on the receipt papers. One sheet is divided into 3 receipts, so I don't want to waste lots of paper by printing only one at a time. I already know how to print multiple receipts on PDF but that takes up a whole sheet of paper. I am curious to know how other organizations print multiple receipts efficiently! I would appreciate any advice, thanks in advance!

@Iman Asfaw Welcome to the BB Community forums.

You would need to create a merge document that has the receipt format 3 times and have merge fields coded correctly to go to next record and not print the same person's info 3 times.
I'm assuming your receipt is a Word doc. I would google how to create the Word merge doc. Not super difficult but a lot to try to explain here.
OR You may be able to also solve in print set up by telling your printer to print multiple docs if they are ⅓ page sized on one page but I can't recall if that can be done using Word. It can if they are PDFs. It's been a while since I did it.

I'm sure someone will know.

@JoAnn Strommen My receipts are printed from Raiser's Edge database view and I know how to save them as a PDF. I am noticing this is more of a printer related issue but I will try both of those things and see what works for me. Thank you for your speedy response !
