Get Printer Connected to Clover

Bring connected order printers online to use them in your Clover POS network.

Get ready to bring the printer online:

• If you’re setting up the printer inside your Clover device, make sure your device is plugged in, connected to your network, and activated. 

• If you’re setting up a Star Micronics accessory printer, make sure the printer is plugged in and connected to the same network as your Clover system. 

1. On the Clover device connected to the printer you want to bring online, tap to open the Printers app.

2. In the lower right corner, select Add.

3. Choose Order Printer. The system shows you order printers connected to your Clover network.

4. From the list of connected printers, select the printer by name. After you select the printer, the system recognizes your printer, brings it online, and adds it to the online printers list.

5. (Optional) Select Add and repeat these steps for each printer you want to add. For example, if you want the system to print orders on your Clover device printer and a Star Micronics order printer, add each printer, one at a time.

You can take a printer offline when you want to temporarily stop printing orders. You'll need to do this on the printer, itself.

Take a printer temporarily offline

1. Go directly to the printer device.

2. On the printer, switch off the power.

You can also disconnect the printer if you're not using it anymore.

Disconnect a printer from your Clover network

2. Select the printer.

3. At the top right, choose Delete.
