Troubleshooting Printing Issues

If your printer is not working with the kiosk or application, follow the steps below to identify and resolve the issue.

Issue: Print Doesn’t Work

Case 1: Printer Model is Available In-House

If the same printer model is available for internal testing:

  • Replicate the issue internally to understand the behavior

  • Check if the printer plugin application is installed on the client’s kiosk

  • If not, install it from the Google Play Store

  • Perform a test print using the plugin

  • If the test print is successful, try printing from the Qwaiting application using the same plugin

  • If the issue still persists, escalate to the Development/QA team

Case 2: Printer Model is NOT Available In-House

If the printer model is not available for testing:

  • Try configuring the printer using ESC/POS settings from the backend

  • If it still does not work, the printer’s SDK integration may be required

Common Scenario: Printer Prints Blank Paper

  • If the printer is printing blank receipts, the issue is usually due to incorrect paper roll installation

  • Ensure the paper roll is placed in the correct direction

Still Not Working?

  • Try printing directly from a web browser

    • If printing fails there as well, the issue is likely device or printer-related

Next Steps

  • Share the Device Serial Number (SN) with the support team

  • The team will:

    • Verify your device

    • Check and apply necessary firmware updates

    • Review and update BIOS-level configurations (if applicable)

Note:

  • BIOS-related configurations apply only to supported kiosk/PC devices

  • For Android devices, equivalent system-level configurations will be applied
