Does this plugin support 80 mm width Thermal Printer paper size?
Thanks
]]>I am printing orders on a thermal printer, configured with CSS (@media print).
Everything works fine but I have 3 products where the name is too long (31 characters without spaces) and when I print, the “product” column becomes so wide that the “total” column doesn’t print.
I tried to change the column widths with CSS but without success
Does anyone have a solution?

I’m curious if you have plans to add pixelated fonts for best result with thermal printers? Something like the bitMatrix-A2: https://www.receiptfont.com/the-most-common-receipt-font-for-thermal-printer/
]]>I am trying to customize the page size for the PDF invoices so they are formatted for POS/Thermal printers. This will be used to print restaurant food orders on a thermal printer. I’ve tried a few ways, including the suggested solution @ https://docs.wpovernight.com/woocommerce-pdf-invoices-packing-slips/use-custom-page-sizeorientation/ .
However, this does not work well. The width of the paper seems OK, however, with thermal printers, height is determined by length of the receipt. Also, another issue I have is, how would I customize the invoice layout so it would fit in a 80mm/3inch receipt paper, in a more food receipt format instead of the standard table layout of standard woocommerce invoice?
I am novice php coder. Any help would be appreciated.
]]>I have just gotten a Star thermal printer and hooked that successfully into our WooCommerce installation. I even managed to get some important fields onto the receipt. I do have a question about two things.
1) German Umlaute like ? ? ü are not being printed correctly so i wonder were one can fix that in the code.
2) All text has just one size. The only way to make lines stand out is to wrap them in $printer->set_text_emphasized(); code. There is no way to scale text which is hugely frustrating as we need that urgently.
I can see from the Star Document Markup documentation that there should be plenty of possibilities to design the content but for some reason that potential seems not to be used. How can we tweak the code to overcome this problem.
Thanks for any help.
PS: It would be nice to get Image logo printing working as well …
]]>I’m using a pretty standard UPS Shipping Plugin on my client’s site, https://deerdefeat.com, so when an order is placed a UPS label is automatically generated – you just have to go into the WooCommerce backend and click a button to print it. I’m printing the UPS labels via the ZPL option in the plugin’s settings on a Zebra ZP 450 thermal printer on a Windows 10 operating system. The issue is that the labels are printing upside down for some reason when generated from orders placed on the client’s website (see image). However, when making and printing a label directly from the UPS.com website, the label prints out correctly on the same printer using the designated UPS printer driver set-up (see image). Any ideas of why this might be happening or ways to fix the upside down label? The output just needs to be rotated 180 degrees…
FYI – I followed the instructions found in this youtube tutorial so ZPL files that open would be sent automatically to the thermal printer. I don’t know if that set-up would affect the orientation of the label, but wanted to share it. To summarize the video – I wrote a batch file that opens zpl files and sends a command so they print to the thermal printer automatically. Here is a photo of the batch file template. And here is a photo of the final command box.
Although I realize it doesn’t really affect the usability of the label (since the barcode can still be scanned), my client is insisting that I fix it so it prints out correctly and I’m stumped. I tried rotating the image in my printer’s preferences/property settings and had no luck. I have emailed the UPS plugin support team this question as well but I have a feeling they won’t be able to help.
Thanks in advance for anyone’s help on this!
]]>1. With the free version, can I customize the template, and print it via thermal printer? or I have to buy some premium version to do that? If yes, could you give me the link?
2. I tried the free version, but the pdf which is attached to the email can’t show Chinese. How should I solve that? To explain more clearly, I mean, my product name has english + chinese in it. We need to print the invoice with chinese on it, but the chinese on it can’t be read. Where the chinese is, it just show several boxes. But we need to print the invoice to show our chef. They cannot read English.
Best regards,
