Supported printers

Receipt printers that work with ReceiptKit

Star, Epson, Rongta, Munbyn, and generic ESC/POS thermal printers over Ethernet or USB, with no print server to host and, in almost every case, no driver to install. Each guide says exactly what we tested on real hardware.

How to read this

Tested, expected, or not supported

Every ReceiptKit receipt is rendered on a small bridge next to the printer and written straight to the device in its native command language: StarPRNT, Star Raster, or ESC/POS. A printer marked tested has printed real receipts in our lab on the connections listed. One marked expected speaks the same command language as a tested sibling but has not been in our lab yet. Impact printers are not supported because they do not accept raster data.

Full platform-by-connection matrix and network tips are in the supported printers documentation.

Star mC-Print3

StarPRNT · 80 mm · Ethernet / USB

The Star mC-Print3 is a compact 80 mm thermal receipt printer with a front paper exit, Ethernet and USB on every model, and Star's modern StarPRNT command language. It is the printer we run in production at Family Hardware and the one we recommend when someone asks what to buy.

Setup guide

Star mC-Print2

StarPRNT · 58 mm · Ethernet / USB

The Star mC-Print2 is the 58 mm sibling of the mC-Print3: the same compact front-exit design and the same StarPRNT command language on narrower paper. It shows up in small cafes, kiosks, and delivery counters where a 2-inch receipt is enough.

Setup guide

Star mPOP

StarPRNT · 58 mm · USB

The Star mPOP combines a 58 mm receipt printer and a cash drawer in one low unit, and is a favourite for tablet POS setups. It speaks StarPRNT like the mC-Print family.

Star TSP100III

Star Raster (futurePRNT) · 80 mm · Ethernet / USB

The Star TSP100III is the third generation of the best-selling TSP100 futurePRNT family, sold in USB, Wi-Fi (W), Ethernet (LAN), and Bluetooth (BI) variants. It is a raster-only printer: instead of text commands it accepts a bitmap of the receipt, which is exactly how ReceiptKit renders anyway.

Setup guide

Star TSP100II

Star Raster (futurePRNT) · 80 mm · USB

The Star TSP100II, usually sold as the TSP143II or TSP143ECO, is the USB-only second generation of the TSP100 futurePRNT family and one of the most common receipt printers in small shops. It is raster-only, which suits ReceiptKit's render-then-print design.

Setup guide

Star TSP100

Star Raster (futurePRNT) · 80 mm · USB

The original Star TSP100 futurePRNT (TSP143, TSP113, TSP143GT) is the first-generation raster receipt printer that started the TSP100 line. Many are still in service. It uses the same Star Raster protocol as the TSP100II and TSP100III that we test against.

Setup guide

Star TSP100IV

StarPRNT · 80 mm · Ethernet / USB

The Star TSP100IV is the current TSP100 generation and, despite the name, a StarPRNT printer rather than a raster-only one. The SK variant prints on linerless sticky paper for kitchen and delivery labels. It offers USB and Ethernet, with Wi-Fi on some models.

Setup guide

Star TSP650II

StarPRNT · 80 mm · Ethernet / USB

The Star TSP650II (sold as the TSP654II) is a fast, workhorse 80 mm receipt printer offered with USB, Ethernet, serial, or parallel interfaces. It uses StarPRNT and is common in higher-volume retail and restaurant counters.

Setup guide

Star TSP700II

StarPRNT · 80 mm · Ethernet / USB

The Star TSP700II (TSP743II) is a heavy-duty 80 mm thermal printer that also handles labels and thicker media, which makes it a frequent kitchen and label printer. It speaks StarPRNT.

Setup guide

Star SP700

Impact printer · 76 mm · Ethernet / USB

The Star SP700 (SP712, SP742) is a dot-matrix impact printer built for hot kitchens, where thermal paper would darken. It prints text with a ribbon instead of rasterising an image, which is why ReceiptKit does not support it yet.

Setup guide

ESC/POS · 80 mm · Ethernet / USB

The Epson TM-T88IV is a long-discontinued but still common ESC/POS receipt printer. If yours has a USB or Ethernet interface card, it should print from ReceiptKit like the rest of the TM-T88 line.

Setup guide

Epson TM-U220

Impact printer · 76 mm · Ethernet / USB

The Epson TM-U220 is the most common impact (dot-matrix) kitchen printer. Its ribbon-printed text survives heat and grease where thermal paper darkens. Because it prints text rather than raster images, ReceiptKit does not support it yet.

Other printers

If your printer speaks StarPRNT, Star Raster mode, or ESC/POS over USB or Ethernet, there is a good chance it already works: set its model in the bridge to pick the protocol manually. Tell us the model and we will add a guide. Reports from real installs are how printers move from expected to tested.

Print on the printer you already own

Install the free bridge, claim your printer, and print from WooCommerce, a webhook, or one API call. First 500 prints a month are free.
