Reprint from Bills

Find a past sale in Bills and reprint its receipt โ€” possibly to a different printer.

Overview

Any completed sale can be reprinted from the Bills screen. Useful when the customer asks for a copy after they've left the register, when the original print was smudged or unreadable, or when you want a backup for end-of-day accounting.

When to use it

  • A customer comes back and asks for a copy of their receipt
  • The first print was unreadable (low ink on thermal paper, cut mid-line)
  • End-of-day or audit filing where you want a fresh paper copy of specific bills
  • Testing a newly-installed printer without having to run a real sale

How to use it

  1. Open Bills from the drawer menu on the left.
  2. Use the filter menu (top right) or scroll to find the sale โ€” you can filter by paid-only to hide pending bills.
  3. Tap the row to open the bill detail modal.
  4. Tap the Receipt action card โ€” the receipt preview appears inside the modal.
  5. Tap Print Receipt at the bottom โ€” the receipt is sent to the active printer.
  6. To print to a different printer, switch it first from the drawer's Printers screen, then reopen the bill and reprint.

Tips & gotchas

  • Every sale ever rung up is available in Bills โ€” there's no cutoff window for reprinting.
  • Switching the active printer is done from the Printers screen (drawer), not from inside the bill modal โ€” the modal always uses whatever printer is currently connected.
  • If the printer's low on paper, tap into the most recent paid sale and hit Print Receipt as a quick test before you start the next real transaction.
  • Reverts and cancellations are their own events with their own audit trail on the Dashboard โ€” don't try to manually reprint an old receipt to "undo" them; use the Revert / Cancel actions in the bill modal instead.
  • The Dashboard's sales audit log will show the original sale but not individual reprint events โ€” keep that in mind if you need reprint history for compliance.
