Shopify Order Printer

Just what I needed it

Dear Shopify Team,

I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for your prompt and supportive response to the concerns I raised regarding the Order Printer app. The creation of migration tools from the legacy Order Printer to the new app is a testament to your commitment to customer satisfaction and service excellence.

The successful migration of all my templates to the new app was seamless, and I am delighted with the outcome. Your assistance has not only addressed my immediate needs but also reinforced my confidence in Shopify as a platform that truly listens and responds to its user community.

Thank you once again for your exceptional support. It is actions like these that solidify our partnership and make Shopify an indispensable part of our business operations.

Kind regards,

Original Review:

Dear Shopify Support Team,

I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the recent changes to the Order Printer app. While I appreciate the new version’s ability to quickly set up and print custom packing slips, invoices, labels, and receipts, the critical issue lies in the requirement for major customizations.

The statement that “Shopify Theme Support can assist with minor customizations” does little to alleviate our concerns. For many of us who lack expertise in HTML, CSS, and coding, major customizations are now an insurmountable challenge. The need to hire third-party apps, designers, or developers incurs additional expenses that significantly impact our businesses.

As business owners, we rely on the tools provided by Shopify to serve our customers effectively. The original Order Printer app was a testament to Shopify’s understanding of our needs, and its removal has left a significant void. We are not merely users; we are your partners in commerce.

Therefore, I strongly request the reinstatement of the original Order Printer app. Please consider the collective voice of your user community, which relies on the robustness and dependability of your platform. Swift action to address these concerns would demonstrate Shopify’s commitment to supporting businesses of all sizes.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

All my templates imported fine from the old app. No issues printing either. Seems to load much faster - what's to complain about?

Me ha resultado muy cómoda y fácil de utilizar. Solo tuve que traducir los términos. Es justo lo que buscaba. Gracias.

I think people just jumped on to write a review before really diving into the new app. I successfully transferred all of my old templates. Although, I did have to rework them a little bit.

I am not sure about adding images, but that isn't something we utilize so can't help combat that negative review. Overall, it was an easy switch and it's an easy app to use.

Those who do not know how to code should stay away and those who know how to code on shopify - this app works like a charm !

I'm glad I waited for Shopify to work out all of the kinks on this app. I downloaded it and was prompted to transfer my previous templates to this new app. Everything worked well and my old templates were imported without any problem.

Countering many of the poor reviews here, this app has been a LONG time coming and sorely needed. Previously Shopify had no support for Invoices. If a customer asked for an invoice, there was no way to pull it up, other than installing third party app workaround. That was a huge gap in any b2b workflow and this finally fixes it.

Users have always had to know a little bit of HTML, CSS and Liquid to customize an invoice so I'm not understanding the complaints. There also appear to be unlimited templates that can be added so I dont understand some the reviews saying there are only 2. Yes, 2 pre-made, but you can duplicate and create as many as you need.

I get that templates have to be done again and that's a hassle, but the old app was a dead end and needed a complete rebuild which is what Shopify is delivering here.

My team and I are thrilled that this is finally available and I look forward to leveraging its capabilities into our workflows. No doubt Shopify can and will build on this new foundation.

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.

We have used the Shopify in-house app Order Printer to print custom pack slips for many years. This is a nearly identical replacement of the Order Printer (legacy) app but with some changes to the liquid variables. There are two help pages you will need: "Liquid variables and filters reference for Shopify Order Printer" and "Migrate from the Order Printer app to Shopify Order Printer".
