Tablet Ordering - External Printer Compatibility & Setup (Bluetooth)

Online Ordering on tablet can utilise external printers connected on the same network as the tablet via Bluetooth. We'll explain how below.

Before you begin

  • Ensure your printer supports Bluetooth
  • Turn the printer on
  • Pair the printer with your tablet via Bluetooth settings

Note: Facilipay primarily supports Star Micronics printers (e.g. mC-Print3). Other printers may work, but compatibility is not guaranteed.
