FAQ's


What printer can I use?

To utilize the invoice printing feature, we recommend the following type of printer:

  • Thermal printer

  • Uses 80 mm paper

  • Has Bluetooth interface (USB + Bluetooth is preferred, in case your device encounters bugs with Bluetooth)


Does the printer functionality only work with particular device operating systems? 

Yes, the printing feature, whether USB or Bluetooth, only works with the google play store app (Android Enterprise App). You can still access the Enterprise web portal using iOS, Safari browser, or any other browser, but it would not provide support for printing.


Bluetooth Printer password

Typically, the password is either 0000 or 1234. If these are incorrect, refer to the manual that comes with the purchase of your Bluetooth printer.


When will my order invoice print?

If your ‘Auto-Accept Orders’ feature is enabled, the invoice will be printed when the order is received on the klikit app. 

If your ‘Auto-Accept Orders’ feature is disabled, (i.e. you accept orders manually), the invoice will be printed once you accept the order. You also have the ability to re-print your invoices before the order is picked up for delivery.


Can I charge my klikit device while connected to an external printer at the same time?

If you are using a USB printer,, we would recommend using a USB C converter if you would like to charge your klikit device at the same time.

If you have a Bluetooth printer, simply connect your klikit device to the printer via Bluetooth, then you should be able to charge and print simultaneously!
