Why didn't my order print?

If your orders are not printing:

  • There may be an issue with the printer. Please contact your POS provider for support.
  • Your POS may be offline. If your POS is offline when an app sends through an order, the app won't receive a response from your POS. Some apps will cancel an order automatically if no response is received within a certain period of time. If an app doesn't do this, the order is sent through when your POS comes online again (sometimes hours later), as if it had just been placed.

Contact details for your POS provider are available in this article.

For further support, please refer to the following POS-specific support articles, or contact your POS provider:
