Many customers only say they don't want a receipt after the transaction has been completed. This or as soon as they seen 'Approved' on the PDQ they head off. It means we waste a huge amount of paper on unnecessary Receipts.
It would be great if the option to print the receipt was moved after the transaction had been completed as on other Epos systems and retail environments.
Yes, you can ask the customer if they want a receipt before closing the transaction but often they haven't got to that part of the transaction process in their head until they've entered their PIN number.
