====== Test Betting Slip printing with a Browser ======

By default, it is mandatory to have a fully operational Printer and a Printer's application on your computer to successfully Print and preview Betting Slips. However, in some cases, with Aardvark technology supervision, we allow users to use feature dedicated for testing Betting Slip printing in Aardvark Cashier's User Interface (UI).

In short, this feature allows a specific user with enough permissions to ignore non-operational printer and its app, to test Betting Slip printing using just the user's internet browser.

==== Sign in ====

  - Visit https://test.advbet.com
  - Select Cashier's application from the two applications provided
  - Provide your Cashier's credentials and login

==== Ignore printer ====

  - Go to Printer's settings either through Top menu or User-drop down list
  - Tick **Use browser** check box

==== Notes ====
Please be informed that:
  * You will need to re-check the **Use browser** check box after signing out and signing in again to ignore printer and use the Browser to preview the Slips.

==== Printing Slips without Pop-ups ====
There is a solution to print betting slips without dealing with pop-ups and additional windows. Users who have proper permissions enabled can select 'IGNORE' on the top half of the cashier application near the printer status and test our application this way. Please note that there are cons and pros of using this method:

Pros:
  * There is no need to deal with pop-up windows anymore, which makes the process quicker and easier
  * You don't have to tinker with your adblock software or browser settings to make the process work
  * A simple way to test our betting software in order to get a grasp of how it works
Cons:
  * You lose the ability to view how a ticket may actually look in real life and gauge whether its layout, font and other aspects of the slip are acceptable
