Troubleshooting Pryseflow Connect Printer Issues

Hardware Support

Pryseflow Connect is the bridge between your web-based dashboard and your physical hardware. If your printer isn't responding, follow these steps to get back up and running.

1. Check the Basics

• Power: Ensure the printer is plugged in and the power light is on.
• Paper: Verify that the thermal paper roll is installed correctly (thermal side facing the print head).
• Cable: If using USB, ensure the cable is securely connected to both the printer and the computer running Pryseflow Connect.

2. Restart Pryseflow Connect

Most connectivity issues are resolved by restarting the bridge application:

1. Locate the Pryseflow Connect icon in your system tray (Windows) or menu bar (Mac).
2. Right-click and select Quit / Exit.
3. Re-open the application from your desktop or applications folder.
4. Wait for the "Connected" status light to turn green.

3. Common Error Messages

• "Printer Offline": The computer can't see the hardware. Check your USB or Bluetooth settings.
• "Out of Paper": The printer sensor detects an empty roll. Replace the paper and close the lid firmly.
• "Formatting Error": Usually caused by an unsupported character in your receipt template. Check your POS > Settings > Receipt Template.

4. Advanced Troubleshooting

If the printer still won't print, try printing a Self-Test Page (usually by holding the Feed button while turning the printer on). If the self-test prints but Pryseflow doesn't, the issue is likely in the software configuration or your local network firewall.
