Printing Invoices/receipts
Visit the Hardware page to see all currently supported printing devices.
FooSales web app
To print invoices on standard desktop printers, you can use your default print settings to print in Letter/A4 format.
If you have a thermal receipt printer, here are the steps for configuring and printing your receipts:
- Choose your receipt printer
- Print all pages
- Select portrait layout
- Choose the width of your receipt paper
- The paper length can be the longest option available as the printer will continue printing until it reaches the bottom of the receipt and then automatically cut the paper
- Set the number of pages per sheet to ‘1’
- Disable headers and footers
- Google Chrome – with margin set to ‘default’ it will show the checkbox
- Mozilla Firefox – Set the header and footer options to ‘blank’
- Apple Safari – Uncheck the header and footer checkbox
- Margins must be set to ‘none’
- Scale should be set to ‘default’ or 100%
FooSales tablet apps
In the FooSales tablet apps, navigate to Settings and select which type of printer you would like to use under Printer Settings. Currently, Apple AirPrint (iOS only), Star mPOP and Star Bluetooth Thermal devices are supported.
You can also set the paper width to accommodate the paper roll used by your specific printer model by entering the value in the input field in inches (in) or centimeters (cm).
Automatic invoice/receipt printing
Receipts can be automatically printed after an order is completed.
In the FooSales tablet apps, navigate to Settings and enable automatic receipt printing under Printer Settings.
To disable automatic receipt printing, toggle the setting to the ‘off’ position.
Printing invoices for saved orders
The FooSales tablets apps include the ability to temporarily save partial orders. Saved orders can be accessed via the Orders screen and printed before the order is completed. This makes it possible to provide your customers with a printable quote or bill for their order before they pay.
