Hi Jeffrey,

We found Label Printer Model: TSP645 SK (TSP650) to print kitchen receipts on labels (need one menu item with modifiers tobe printed on each).

We have seen Label(Fiscal) Printer option from Printers app. Is there any specific print job available for Label Printing.

We are working on label printer support but the feature is not available yet. We'll have to wait for the official release for the details. There will be print job support for it in the SDK.


I can tell you it's going to be for specific label printer models though and the Star TSP650 isn't one of them.


EDIT: Clover is adding support for the Epson TM-L90 label printer. That this point support is limited to specific merchants developers can not assume support for it across all Clover merchants. This may change in the future.

Has there been a recent update to the Clover SDK to support Label Printers? I read here that currently it is only supported via an App Named Easy Labels. https://www.clover.com/help/set-up-a-label-printer/?device=6bPIjSaxAQUg2eYAm6Kuiw

Couple of questions on this.


1. Would this be searchable under Order Printer? or is there going to be a new Printer type called Label Printer?

2. You've mentioned that the support will be limited. Is there a process for requesting the support for this as a developer in Sandbox and as a Merchant in production?

Do you have the printer connected? If so, do you have the com.clover.epson app installed? If it's not installed, let me know I'll try to refer you to developer relations to figure out how to make that available on sandbox.

Hi @Jeffrey, I was attempting to add the com.clover.epsonprinter app via the install_apps.py

But I get the following error. This is an emulator created using the Emulator setup in Android Studio guide.

That app is not supported on x86 emulators since it has native ARM libs. You can try with an ARM emulator. I haven't tried this however not sure if that works either.
