Print and reprint receipts
Print a completed sale or correction on a paired thermal printer, and reprint the same record later.
Updated 13 September 2026
Swipee creates a receipt record for every completed sale. Printing is optional and happens after the transaction is safe, so a printer problem can never undo a payment.
Print after a sale
- 1Complete the sale.
- 2On the receipt screen, choose Print.
- 3If the printer has gone to sleep, Swipee reconnects and retries once.
- 4Start the next payment whether or not the customer wanted paper.
Turn on automatic printing under the printer settings only after a successful test print.
What the receipt shows
- Business and store details
- Sale date, time, and reference
- Items, quantities, and prices
- Discounts and tax
- Total and recorded payment method
- Cashier and customer details where applicable
Fee and net rows are hidden during the pilot. Card records do not include a full card number because Swipee does not collect one.
Reprint later
- 1Open Transactions.
- 2Find and open the sale.
- 3Choose Receipt or Print receipt.
- 4Select the paper width if the dashboard asks, then print.
Swipee uses the same server-built document on Android, iPhone, and the dashboard. A later copy is marked REPRINT, so it cannot be mistaken for a second sale.
Correction receipts
Voids, refunds, and returns keep their own correction record and printable receipt. The original sale remains in history with its later corrections attached.
If printing fails
The sale remains complete. Check the printer, paper, and Bluetooth connection, then print again from the transaction. The attempt and the printer's error are recorded under Settings → Shop Health in the owner dashboard.
Digital sending by SMS or email is not available in the current receipt screen. If the customer does not need paper, the sale stays searchable by its reference in your transaction history.
