Fix a printer that is not printing
A saved order can be valid even when printing fails. Check printer hardware, connection and routing before entering the order again.
A saved order can be valid even when printing fails. Check printer hardware, connection and routing before entering the order again.
Check the printer
- Check power, paper direction, lid and error lights.
- Confirm the printer can print its own device test.
- Open Manage › Devices and verify branch, connection, address, port and attached cashier.
- Sync the till, then inspect Hardware for its last error and pending jobs.
- Check installed Windows printer name, Android USB permission or Bluetooth pairing as applicable.
- For kitchen tickets, check printing settings and category routing.
Network printers commonly use port 9100; use the configured port for your printer.
Do not repeatedly reprint an unclear kitchen job. Check the queue and ask the kitchen whether a ticket already arrived.
Receipt copies and automatic printing are separate settings.
Keep the activated devices on the same reachable branch network. Internet access is needed for activation and cashier Sync; local orders and display updates use the LAN. Check the selected branch, network connection and saved device identity before resetting anything. Preserve unsynced data when investigating a connection problem.
