Overview
Send invoices, receipts and labels from Tillor to a printer at your park, manually or automatically on a payment.
Last updated on
With the printer link you print invoices, receipts and labels directly from Tillor on a printer at your park, without downloading the document first. You set up the printers once under Setting up printers and after that you print with a click or let Tillor do it on a payment.
How does this fit together?
Tillor does not send a print job straight to your printer. The job first goes into the print queue. At the print time Tillor hands it to the connector, a small program on a computer in your network, and that makes the printer print.
That is why the connector must be online and the printer reachable on the same network. Without an active connector you do not see the options to send to a printer. See Connector.
Good to know
- There are three kinds of printers: an A4 printer for invoices and documents, a thermal printer for till receipts and a label printer.
- The width of the receipt roll is 80 mm (default) or 58 mm.
- A failed job is retried automatically by Tillor after 10 seconds, 5 minutes and 15 minutes. After that it is set to Failed. If the paper has run out or the printer is offline, it is set to Failed immediately.
- Every Monday morning Tillor retries all jobs that are on Failed one more time.
- Printing can be paused for 15 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, 6 hours, 1 day or until you resume it yourself.
- By default, terminal payments and manual payments print immediately. Online payments, mandates and transfers wait for the next print time.
