Operating System and Browser
Windows 10+ is the only supported operating system.
We recommend using the Google Chrome browser. There are several helpful tips and tricks to help ensure smoother performance.
Computer Requirements
8 GB RAM or more.
Core I5 processor or better.
Monitor with 1080p or better resolution recommended.
Supported Hardware
Laser Printers:
MotilityAnywhere will support most business-class laser printers that can print a PDF. We recommend you use the manufacturer recommended driver. You may need to call upon an IT professional to both assist with proper printer installation and verify printing from MotilityAnywhere.
Example:
HP LaserJet Pro M506
The printer needs to be installed locally on the user’s workstation. Windows will automatically load the IPP class driver. You would need to change the driver to the one from the HP website, which is the HP LaserJet pro m506 v3 driver. When using this driver, you will have a better success rate printing correctly out of the software.
Note: Special attention needs to be given to Receipt and Barcode Printers. You may need to reach out to an IT professional to assist with the proper installation of these advanced printer settings.
Impact Printers:
Please follow the instructions to set up your local USB OkiData Printer (OkiData ML 321 Turbo) and details on proper paper sizing.
Cash Drawers:
For cash drawers to work in MotilityAnywhere, the cash drawer MUST be directly connected to your receipt printer.
You will need to check with the receipt printer manufacturer to determine if they have a separate list of cash drawers they support. Stand-alone cash drawers are not supported.
CC Machines:
We recommend an IT professional setup the specific network and IP configuration needed for the Elavon Credit Card Machine integration.
Barcode Scanners:
We do not have any specific recommended hardware for scanning barcodes at the point of sale. In general, plug and play devices that do not require special programming and use the BC39 font with a carriage return after the scan have worked.
Minimum Internet Requirements
Minimum required connectivity/bandwidth is a 100Mbps fiber optic or similar dedicated broadband circuit.
Note: Internet speeds are highly dependent on other dealership usage, number of users, other applications, and factors outside the scope of Motility Software.
