Hi POS UI Extensions team, I’m wondering if there are any plans to add a Receipt Printer API? Or if not, would this be something that you could consider? Our merchants in the Food & Beverage industry often have several printers set up in different areas (eg. barista area, kitchen area, etc), and they are often requesting the ability to connect multiple printers and be able to print order tickets to those printers.
We would love to see something like this:
- The ability for merchants to connect multiple printers to Shopify POS, be able to label them, and have the option of printing to multiple printers at once (currently merchants can only select one default printer & Shopify POS only prints to the default printer);
- The ability for app devs to access the receipt printer label, which we could then use in our app to only print certain items to certain printers (for example, only print the hot drinks to the barista printer);
- The ability for app devs to create Receipt Print actions that we can attach to the post purchase screen and the order details screen;
- The ability for app devs to create custom receipt layouts
This functionality is crucial to merchants in the food and beverage industry, and if we were able to solve this problem it could really help to attract a huge segment of merchants over to Shopify POS.
Thank you so much,
Adam
