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
Video tutorial coming soon
- Open Bills from the drawer menu on the left.
- Use the filter menu (top right) or scroll to find the sale โ you can filter by paid-only to hide pending bills.
- Tap the row to open the bill detail modal.
- Tap the Receipt action card โ the receipt preview appears inside the modal.
- Tap Print Receipt at the bottom โ the receipt is sent to the active printer.
- 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.
