BOCA Ticket Printer Integration with VBO Tickets for Performing Arts Box Offices

VBO Tickets integrates with BOCA Systems thermal ticket printers to provide reliable, high-speed ticket printing for performing arts venues and live event box offices.

BOCA printers are widely used in theaters and performing arts centers due to their durability, fast output, and direct thermal printing technology — which requires no ink or toner. When paired with VBO Tickets’ box office software, venues can print professional 5.5″ × 2.0″ concert ticket stock quickly and consistently.

BOCA Systems is a Florida based manufacturer specializing in direct thermal ticket printers used in:

• Performing arts centers
• Theatre and touring productions
• Sports venues and stadiums
• Museums and attractions
• High-volume live events

Their printers are widely regarded as an industry standard for professional ticket stock printing due to their speed and reliability.

BOCA thermal ticket printers integrate cleanly with VBO Tickets’ box office interface once installed on your workstation.

To configure:

• Install and configure your BOCA printer on a Windows-based box office workstation.
• Set the printer for standard 5.5″ × 2.0″ ticket stock
• Select the BOCA printer as the default device in your VBO box office settings
• Print directly from the dashboard at the time of sale.

If alignment adjustments are needed, margins can be fine-tuned through browser print settings and saved for future transactions.

While standard desktop printers can print receipts, performing arts venues often require dedicated ticket stock and reliable performance during peak sales.

BOCA printers offer:

• Direct thermal printing (no ink or toner required)
• Fast ticket production during high-volume periods
• Durable, professional ticket stock output
• Broad adoption across performing arts venues

Combined with VBO’s responsive client support, this integration helps ensure smoother box office operations on show nights.
