Troubleshooting the Star TSP100IIIU on your iPad

If your receipt printer is having the following issues, start by turning it off and back on again:

 

  • Your receipt printer isn't printing receipts
  • Your receipt printer appears offline on the Profile screen in Retail POS
  • An error message displays when you try to print a receipt in Retail POS

 

To do so, press the power switch on the left-hand side of your receipt printer to the OFF and then ON position:

If after turning your receipt printer off and on you're still having issues:

  1. On your iPad, press the Home button twice. This will display previews of all of your recently used apps.
