      t_text: <p>The Hardware Bundle will provide the restaurant with the fundamental tools needed to operate its POS as a single cohesive unit. A Hardware Bundle from the vendor provides the restaurant with a complete set of <a href="https://plumpos.com/hardware/">POS Hardware</a> items rather than having to buy each item separately. Most POS Hardware Bundles will include multiple POS hardware components, including a POS terminal, Receipt Printer, <a href="https://plumpos.com/hardware/pos-cash-drawer/">Cash Drawer</a>, Barcode Scanner, and sometimes a kitchen display or customer-facing screen.</p><h2>How Does a Hardware Bundle Function?</h2><p>A hardware bundle operates by linking multiple <a href="https://plumpos.com/glossary/pos-devices.html">POS devices</a> to create an integrated system for restaurants to operate. In this system, the <a href="https://plumpos.com/hardware/pos-terminal/">POS terminal</a> or tablet is the main device where the employees input the orders and payments. Once the order is placed, the system can automatically send the order to each of the appropriate devices for fulfillment.</p>
