My laptop crashed about a month ago. I had done a back-up for Pampered Partner - but now I can't get my receipts to print ('Print' isn't even an option). I can get everything else, like Reports, to print - but not receipts?

Has anyone else had this happen to them? I am wondering if there is a quick fix?

Is this PP or P3?

If it's PP - you can also print them individually from inside the show. There is a print button at the bottom of the order screen in the right hand corner somewhere.

I know this because for a long time, I thought that was the only way I could print receipts in PP.:o (I can't tell you exactly where it is though, because it's been a while since I've used it.)
 
Jenna, what version are you running? Mine's been updated and it's 11.4.2. Sometimes when I've had really whacky things happen I've had to go to CC and download the entire newest version and then voila! all's fine.

If not, do what Becky mentioned and go into each guest's order and print receipt from there (bottom left middle button) until you can get ahold of tech support tomorrow or whenever.

So is the 'pp' button not there beside the picture of the calendar on the main screen when PP opens? If it's there and you click it and it lists the options can't you double click sales receipts and then find the show, add all and print then? Or just single click, then click the print button on the bottom right on the main screen?

I'm sorry, I'm confused of how you can print reports but not receipts.
 
I just went on CC an the newest update or full install is 12.0 as of Jan 23.08 so I guess my version isn't the newest even after updating this month??

I did download the latest version/update for the program (to v12). There still isn't a print option. So when I generate a receipt off their order - The print AND print-preview button doesn't do anything. Tech. Supp. wasn't able to help. I am SO NOT a computer person :(
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if my Pampered Partner software won't print receipts?

If your Pampered Partner software is not printing receipts, first ensure that your printer is properly connected and turned on. Check that the printer has enough paper and ink. Restart both your computer and printer to reset any potential connection issues. If the problem persists, try reinstalling the Pampered Partner software or checking for updates.

Why are my receipts printing with incorrect information?

Incorrect information on receipts can occur due to outdated customer or product data. Make sure that all customer details and product information are up-to-date in the Pampered Partner software. Additionally, check your settings to ensure that the correct templates are being used for printing receipts.

How can I fix alignment issues when printing receipts?

Alignment issues can often be resolved by adjusting the printer settings. Access your printer's properties through the control panel and check the page setup options. Make sure the paper size matches the type of paper you are using. You may also need to calibrate your printer to ensure proper alignment.

What if my receipts are printing too small or too large?

If your receipts are printing at an incorrect size, check the print settings in the Pampered Partner software. Ensure that the scale is set to 100% and that you are using the correct paper size. You may also want to check the printer settings to see if there are any scaling options that need to be adjusted.
