USB printers are the simplest to set up — plug in, install once, print forever. Best for a single POS terminal that owns its own receipt printer.

Overview

Supported printers: any 58 mm or 80 mm ESC/POS-compatible thermal printer with a USB interface.

USB printer setup

USB printers only work on the terminal they are plugged into. For shared kitchen printing, use network printers.

Tips & best practices

Buy the exact same printer model for every terminal. Consistent hardware means one set of drivers and one troubleshooting flow.

Common mistakes

Do not unplug a printer during service. Windows and Android sometimes lose the driver connection until reboot.
