If you want to be able to print physical tickets, please reach out to your
Account Manager or Customer Support to set that up.
BOCA is the only ticket printer OTS currently supports.
Physical tickets using ticket stock WILL NOT PRINT using any other printer.
Make sure to purchase a 200 DPI printer for best compatibility with OTS.
Please note that the only compatible ticket stock is 2" x 5.5".
RFID, Receipt, and Specialty printers will not work. (https://www.bocasystems.com/lemurprinters.html)
