Printing Receipts Without Email: Is There a Solution?

In summary, there is a concern about the new beta site's ability to print plain receipts for customers who do not have or use email. Options include printing a 5-page email, copying the information into P3, or hand-writing a receipt. Consultants are encouraged to contact the home office to address this issue and suggest a button to print a plain receipt without pictures.

I know that with the beta site we can email receipts. But, many of my customers don't have/use email. In the past I would have printed a P3 receipt. I know I can print out the email, but I hate to print 5 pages for each guest. Is there something I'm missing? Is there a way to print a plain receipt?
 
I would like to know that also.
 
No, but the 2-ply hand written receipts work as an official receipt.

Really!?! Yet another snafu that home office needs to fix.

I am not on the Beta site yet and I was going to order some computer receipts but now I am wondering if I will even be able to use them if you can't print a receipt from the new site!
Actually, I just called Tech Support and asked about this. The guy said you can "send" or "print" a receipt and it would not print multiple pages. Since I don't know about that, someone will have to verify that please.
 
The packing slip that comes in the box for each guest has all the information on it that they would need to have to contact HO if they needed to about the product. Worst case make sure that you have all of their information that if they do call HO the rep can look up information very quickly for them.

They need to get a receipt with their order so they have the information about changing their mind/return policy/guarantee, etc. To be in good standing with DSA we are required to provide that. The packing slips do give them the show information but not any of that info.

I have written the home office about this issue. Essentially, if I have an outside or catalog show order for which the customer has used the OOF, but they have no email address, I have 3 options. I can print out a 5-page email for them. I can copy everything into P3 and print a receipt for them. Or, I can hand write an order as though they were at a live show. None of these is a reasonable option. I ask each of you to contact the HO about this issue and help spread the word to other consultants. The more of us who bring this issue up, the faster the HO is likely to respond to our request.

Who do we send the e-mail to? I've made the switch and it's not too bad. However the receipt issue is the one thing I don't like. There should be a button to press that prints out the receipt without the pictures and everything. THey need to understand that NOT everyone has e-mail and it's time consuming for us to hand write each receipt for outside orders, etc.

Just send an email to the HO ([email protected]). It will get routed to the right people.
 

1. How can I print receipts without using email?

3. Do I need special equipment to print receipts without email?

It depends on the solution you choose. If you are using a receipt printer, you will need to purchase the printer and any necessary cables or software. However, if you opt for a point-of-sale system, you may not need any additional equipment besides a computer or mobile device.
