Shopify Order Printer

May 16, 2024

Downloaded after long time use of the legacy Order Printer which works very well, at no extra cost! Thank you Shopify. If feedback is welcome I would love to see: - Block style editing of the order form, similar to an e-mail creator. The current CSS style editing is limited for most who don't have the knowledge to work in this format. - In the order overview tab, please add the option for view more columns, the most helpful for our business would be "Delivery Method" as we need to distinguish between Standard, Express & other delivery methods. This will determine the priority in which orders are printed and dispatched. - The inclusion of tags at the order overview stage. This also gives more information at a glance when printing orders. Other than these points the Order Printer app is a great option if you do not want to download 3rd Party apps, and as mentioned, at no extra cost it's a very good option :)

Moving the logo over can be hard to figure out but follow the documentation. I ended up dropping the image code for my logo on line 4 (vs #7 as per the example) to get my logo centered at the top of the page. Regarding printing: You'll find both the radio buttons for "Invoice" and "Packing Slip" are checked by default. To default to only one, look at the top of the "Template" page for both pages and uncheck the one you don't want to have auto-populate.

It's unfortunate that the Order Printer (now called 'Legacy') is being removed. The biggest value I saw in the existing Order Printer app was my ability to have more than 2 templates, for various purposes. I even used one template as a "work order" of sorts, showing exactly what needed to be produced for the order. The new version only supports "Invoice" and "Packing Slip", which, by the way, a packing slip should never contain pricing details by default. Please add additional template support to allow for shop owners to generate various printouts.

UPDATE: Based on my review, Shopify reached out and they helped ensure my old template imported correctly. When it wasn't, someone fixed the issue quickly. I appreciate Shopify and the team behind this template working to ensure I was satisfied. Thanks much! I see no advantage in this template. In fact, I see it as one big hassle. It's designed for business to business and not a direct sale to consumers. What you see on the preview is different from how it actually prints (even when you haven't made any changes to the template). For example, the $ signs don't actually line up on the page. That's just sloppy work. It's clear that when this was launched it was not actually tested with a "real" invoice. I find this incredibly frustrating as I now have to figure out how to fix this and it's a total waste of my time. The address and store name pull from your legal store info when most sellers don't use this on receipts. How about Shopify fix these issues and test the template BEFORE actually launching this? Supposedly it's "Easy to Set Up." Hardly.

AWFUL Does not include images, it's hard to work without images.

Once customized it works well. I am disappointed that a new version is coming out. The version I am currently using is now being called the "Legacy" version. I was encouraged to install the new app. I did install it. All of the settings from the old app which I paid someone to customize do not carry over. Shopify must assume that all of their customers are efficient in back end programming. That is not the case. I tried to get help from the "chat" support feature. Epic fail which is typical. Not that the chat person was not trying. He was but since I am not savvy working the back end of software his recommendations are not good enough. I tried to follow his instructions but I can't complete the task. Shopify used to have a good phone support option that they eliminated. Very bad mistake on their part. I have requested a phone support option and they refuse to offer it. When it was available it worked amazing and we always were able to get our issues resolved. The reason is because the phone support person could log into my computer and show me exactly what to do. With the chat support it takes a very long time and simply does not work in most cases. Now I am on my own and unfortunately I am not a happy customer.

At least they are giving us time to migrate, but this new app does not support any of the customizations we have implemented in the legacy app. I cannot currently figure out how to add line item images to my invoices. Documentation is very sparse and there are not many templates that are provided in the app that you can customize.

Your new product is uncommonly bad. It doesn't total the products. It doesn't have a place field for my logo.

Any edits to templates must be done via code, so there is ZERO options for self service if you don't know how to code. Copy and pasting from the old order printer to the new one does not work as it claims it should, there are a lot of things that don't carry over (like pictures, tag lines, QR codes for discounts, etc)
