Kitchen printer (in bếp)
A thermal printer — typically 80mm ESC/POS — installed at the bar, grill or prep station that prints a chit the moment a server fires an item from the POS. In bếp is the low-cost, low-tech alternative to a full KDS: it works offline, needs no screen, and is still the default in most Vietnamese quán ăn and quán nhậu. LOOP supports both in bếp and KDS simultaneously — hot line can stay on paper while cold and dessert stations move to a screen.
Kitchen printer (in bếp) in day-to-day operations
Operators meet kitchen printer (in bếp) at three moments: when a system is first configured, when a second outlet opens, and when margin is reviewed. At each point the practical question is not the definition but who owns it, where the data lives, and how quickly a discrepancy surfaces.
If kitchen printer (in bếp) lives only in a spreadsheet or in a manager's head, it drifts. When it sits in the operating system alongside tickets, recipes, payments and delivery commission, a discrepancy shows up the next morning instead of at month end — and that gap is where the money is.
