Epson OmniLink Receipt Printer Offers Restaurants One Point-of-Sale Solution for Printing Online Orders from Multiple Online Order Services
LOS ALAMITOS, Calif. – March 23, 2021 – As restaurants continue to look for additional ways to generate business and revenue, Ordermark is delivering solutions that help restaurants capitalize on increased consumer demand for delivery. Ordermark’s online order management technology consolidates mobile orders across online ordering services and sends them to a single printer – enabling omni-channel ordering and delivery. Ordermark also operates Nextbite, a marketplace of virtual restaurant brands, that allows restaurants to offer popular delivery-only brands out of their existing space. The Ordermark solution includes the Epson OmniLink® TM-T88VI point-of-sale printer that allows restaurants to print brick-and-mortar and virtual kitchen online orders through one simple system.
“The Epson OmniLink POS printer is reliable and robust – one we know can stand the heat in the kitchen,” said Alex Canter, CEO, Ordermark. “Our goal is to partner with restaurants to provide innovative products and services to help them reach more customers and not just survive but thrive. By offering the Epson receipt printer as part of our Ordermark online order management solution and Nextbite delivery-only brands, restaurants can be confident in knowing they have a dependable printer powering their online order fulfillment.”
Ordermark helps restaurants and virtual kitchens aggregate mobile orders across all the major online ordering service providers into a single dashboard and printer. Powered by Ordermark technology, Nextbite is one of the earliest and fastest-growing pioneers in the virtual restaurant space.

Virtual brands empower independent restaurants to increase their revenue and profitability. Together, Ordermark and Nextbite provide restaurants new sources of revenue generation to reach customers outside of their four walls.
“The Virtual Kitchen solution has allowed us to utilize space in the kitchen we weren’t fully utilizing prior, which is certainly helping us keep our employees working and our restaurant up and running,” said James Garofalo, CFO/COO, Goddess and the Baker. “The Epson POS printer has been instrumental to our online ordering system, providing one central printer where we can receive both online orders for our restaurant and orders for our Virtual Kitchen brands – making it an easy and efficient solution to ensure we don’t miss a beat.”
