Printing with a Mac Mini
There are two supported methods for printing when using Booth.Events on a Mac Mini:
Option 1: AirPrint (Foreground Only)
Booth.Events supports native AirPrint on macOS with the following limitation:
- The Booth.Events app must remain open and in the foreground for print jobs to be processed.
- Background printing is not supported due to macOS system restrictions.
⚠️ This method is best for attended setups where the app can remain active on-screen.
Option 2: Print.Events App for Windows (Recommended)
For background printing and full kiosk mode compatibility, we recommend using the Print.Events app on a separate Windows machine.
With this setup:
- The Mac Mini sends print jobs wirelessly to the Windows computer.
- The Windows machine handles all printing tasks, even if the Booth.Events app on the Mac is running in the background.
- This ensures seamless and uninterrupted operation, ideal for unattended or automated event setups.
✅ Best for long events, unattended booths, or kiosk-style activations.
