It doesn't print
The ticket doesn't come out in the kitchen or at the till. Step-by-step check.
The till shows next to each order whether it printed. Check in this order:
1. The printer
- Is it on, with no red light, with paper and the lid closed?
- Is it on the same network? Switch it off and on again.
2. IKAROS Bridge (see the status above)
- "Not answering": the PC or tablet running the Bridge is off, asleep or offline. Turn it on and start the Bridge.
- On an Android tablet: open Termux. The Bridge starts by itself.
3. The IP address
- If the router gave the printer another IP (e.g. after a power cut), the Bridge looks at the wrong address. Print the printer's settings page, fix the IP in Printers and press Test print.
- Permanent fix: a fixed IP for the printer in the router.
4. Only some items print
- The item's category has another printer, or none. Check the Category → kitchen/bar printer.
5. Question marks instead of Greek
- On the printer change Greek characters (e.g. CP737 or CP1253) and try again.
On the till, the Again button resends a ticket that didn't print.
Still not solved?
