I just printed reciepts off of P3 for the first time. The first one came out fine, but the 2nd (I only had to print 2) came out in a different language?

The guest and hosts and my name were all fine, but the address, date, product and payment info were all written in funny looking letters and made no sense whatsoever. It almost looked like some Russian letters I've seen.

When I re-printed, everything was fine.

Anyone else have this happen?
 
Were you printing remotely? I know that sometimes if I send things to the printer before I plug my laptop up to the printer...it will print that weird language.
 
That sounds like a strange glitch in the printing system. I haven't personally experienced that, but I would suggest checking your printer settings and making sure everything is set to the correct language. It could also be a temporary issue with the website or software. If it happens again, I would contact customer support for assistance.
