Windows Agent — what this status means
The manufacturer publishes an official Windows driver for this model. We expect it to work through FoodOrders Agent, but we have not physically tested it. A test print is required.
Direct cloud printing
The manufacturer documents a cloud protocol for this model, but we have not completed and tested the integration for it.
Protocol: Star CloudPRNT
Firmware: CloudPRNT requires a CloudPRNT-capable interface and firmware.
Setup notes
- Preferred for hot, humid or greasy line positions where thermal paper fades.
- Red/black ribbon can highlight allergy lines.
Known limitations
- Impact printing is slower than thermal, but the ticket survives heat and steam.
- Requires impact paper and a ribbon, not thermal rolls.
Run a FoodOrders test print
- Install the printer and its official driver in Windows.
- Confirm a Windows test page prints.
- Open FoodOrders Agent and select Refresh printers.
- Choose this printer, then Save and print test page.
- Check the chit for readability, paper width and cutter behaviour.
