Sick and tired that they keep changing the software without consideration of the customer's needs! Just leave as it was! I should not get another app to get your app to work! Our POS receipts are all over the place and not as before! So frustrating! :-(

It pains me to leave this review but here's goes... No search. No tax number. No branding. No layout. No respect - it's like we're in a minimum viable app experiment? This feels like a higher-level strategy to favour app developers by moving basic functions to apps. But the app store soup is a Shopify downside, not a strength: less apps = better. There's no question that print invoice should be next to print packing slip on the order page - unless that's moving to an app as well? The best way to sum-up the overall strategy of moving basic functions to apps, is to quote Spinal Tap's album review; "**** sandwich". We know you can do better Shopify, you just have to believe... "Inner Peace… Inner Peace… Dinner Please … Dinner with Peas..." :) *EDIT* The top bar searches orders but finding the order doesn't help print the receipt, as it doesn't appear under 'Print' on the order page. We had to manually click through 10,000 orders to find a receipt via the app page - no joke! And after sifting through help results for email and POS receipt templates, we finally noticed a grey link on the far left. It's unnoticeable on large monitors but once you realise built-in features are moving to apps, you see it. Although, separating orders from receipts makes for a terrible experience - no?

I have been a Shopify customer for almost 8 years and the most recent changes to this Order Printer app has completely screwed up our personalization workflow. Moving the personalized elements into notes has made this a complete, unreadable mess. If I could rate this 0 stars or negative stars I would. You made this change without letting us know or consulting us as customers -- one of the poorest moves you have made to date!

Was using this app happily until the new requirement appeared to allow the app to harvest data and also most worryingly specifically this: Edit products Products or collections MY REPLY: It's very worrying that you have to give the app permission to edit products and collections. Order printer legacy didn't requite this. Neither does any of the other apps I've installed.

This should be a smooth transfer from the old app to the new one but it's not. The import templet function does not work and when we try to print orders in bulk every couple pages is messed up and split between two pieces of paper. They really need to implement some support for this app or fine tune it and rerelease.

Tracking company and number and HS tarif code not working anymore. So we can not use this invoice for international shipments. *Update 15th of July - fulfillment.tracking_company and fulfillment.tracking_number yields no results - also HS codes are no longer available to use. So we can't use invoices from Order Printer to ship internationally and use for customs. Sad when Shopify is bragging about markets and global expansion.

They changed the system and took away our already perfect packing slip and even copying the code over from the old one to this new one, it did not work and now we're missing elements in it. Extremely poor system. They claim it's easy to use but it most definitely is not. The customer support line was also no help as they have no pre-designed templates to even assist the transition.

If I could give minus stars I would. Really poor effort from the developers and has come about to the detriment of the basic "Print Order Page" option. Shopify should be ashamed! **EDIT** In response to the Shopify reply I would suggest that the very fact I have taken time out to leave my original review would indicate that as usual support is unable to offer any help whatsoever. I'm fed up of hearing that "we will feedback to the developers and hope your issue is resolved in any future updates". Not a chance! ***EDIT UPDATE 2*** It would appear (somehow?) that issues with the generic "Print Order" feature in the admin section have miraculously remedied themselves! This, subsequent review, edit (No.2) is in no way a reflection of the functionality of the "Order Printer" app, but does indicate that our original negative review appears to have got the developers to recognise the issues merchants could well have experienced using the 'Print Order' feature in the Shopify admin. So, for all Shopify merchants out there who are frustrated by the lack of genuine support from Shopify "Help", it would seem that taking the time to objectively review the "Shopify Service" via the Shopify store or elsewhere does provide some form of resolution- it seems not even Shopify likes their ego busting! Just to add a couple of footnotes for the developers if you're checking in? 1. Print Order Feature - Customers mobile number font is still too large. 2. Order Printer App - This would be better if it included the customer's email address.

The worst rollout of a product. Most basic backend Shopify items are GUI, except this. Why? The legacy version worked fine for years before Shopify broke it. The import to this new app was easy, but completely INCONSISTENT. (Which is the most frustrating part!!) So one imported file (the one we use least) looks great - like the legacy version, while the 3 others are useless, especially the packing slip, which only shows two boxes, a ship to and a ship from address. No other information shows, even though there is code. Not only is this new "automated" rollout useless, but now it is wasting my time and delaying the shipment of orders while we figure out how to fix something that SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN BROKEN in the first place!! Thanks for nothing!!
