Deliveroo Receipt Printer — Auto-Print Every Order in 2026
"Receipt printer deliveroo" sits at position 2.8 in search results for Commandear — which means it's already near the top of Google with 30 impressions and zero clicks, because there's no page to land on. There will be now.
If you found this because Deliveroo orders are piling up on a tablet screen while your kitchen team has to shout requests across the pass — you're in the right place.
Why Deliveroo Doesn't Print Automatically
Deliveroo is a closed platform. When an order arrives in the Deliveroo Hub app, it lives there. The app doesn't know your printer exists, and it won't find it unless you tell it where to look.
This isn't a Deliveroo-specific issue — UberEats and JustEat work the same way. The difference is that configuring auto-print properly takes about twenty minutes, after which every accepted order triggers the printer immediately without any manual intervention.
Here's how to get there.
Three Routes to Automatic Deliveroo Printing
Option 1: Connect a Printer Directly to the Deliveroo Tablet
The simplest approach for most single-platform operators. Connect a compatible thermal printer to your Deliveroo tablet via Bluetooth or USB, then configure auto-print within the Deliveroo Hub app.
The Deliveroo-compatible receipt printer from Commandear is specifically tested for this configuration. It's the verified option — not a general receipt printer that "should work," but one that does.
Enabling auto-print in Deliveroo Hub:
1. Open Deliveroo Hub on your tablet
2. Go to Settings → Printing
3. Select your connected printer from the list
4. Toggle Auto-print on new order to on
5. Set paper width (80mm standard)
6. Run a test print
If the printer doesn't appear, make sure it's been paired in your tablet's system Bluetooth settings first — the app can only see printers that are already paired at the OS level.
The Epson TM-M30III Just Eat compatible model and Epson TM-M30II UberEats model also work in this configuration if you're running multiple platforms.
Option 2: EPOS Integration
If you're running a proper EPOS system — Lightspeed, Tabology, Slerp, Comtrex — and it integrates with Deliveroo, you don't need a separate printer on the delivery tablet at all. Deliveroo orders flow directly into your EPOS and print through your existing kitchen or receipt printer exactly like a walk-in order would.
This is the cleanest setup. One screen, one printer, one workflow. Check your EPOS settings before buying any hardware — you may already be half way there. The Lightspeed restaurant starter kit supports Deliveroo integration.
Option 3: Middleware for Multi-Platform Operators
Running Deliveroo, UberEats, and JustEat simultaneously from three separate tablets is an operational nightmare at volume. Middleware platforms — Deliverect, Flipdish, Otter — aggregate all three into a single feed that routes to one printer.
Worth the monthly cost from around 50–60 delivery orders per day upwards. Below that, direct tablet printing is more economical.
What to Print on a Deliveroo Ticket
Customer receipt format isn't ideal for kitchen use. Configure for kitchen ticket output where possible:
• Order reference number (essential for rider matching at collection)
• Customer first name
• Full item list with every modifier explicitly stated — "no onions" needs to be on the ticket, not remembered
• Special instructions in large, prominent text
• Estimated collection time
Star and Epson both support custom ticket formatting through their respective SDKs if you want to optimise the layout for your kitchen workflow.
Paper and Maintenance
80mm thermal paper. Buy in bulk — a box of 20+ rolls is substantially cheaper per roll than buying five at a time, and running out of paper mid-Friday evening service is avoidable. Long rolls (80m) mean fewer changeovers per shift.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Deliveroo provide a printer?
No. Deliveroo supplies the tablet; you supply the printer. The Deliveroo receipt printer from Commandear is the verified option.
What's the best printer for Deliveroo?
The Commandear Deliveroo receipt printer is tested and verified. The Star TSP143IV and Epson TM-M30III also work reliably via Bluetooth or USB direct connection.
Can one printer handle Deliveroo, UberEats, and JustEat?
Yes — via EPOS integration or middleware. See the UberEats printer guide and JustEat printer guide for platform-specific details.
My auto-print stopped working after a Deliveroo Hub update. What now?
App updates occasionally reset printer preferences. Go to Deliveroo Hub → Settings → Printing, re-select your printer, re-enable auto-print. If the printer has disappeared, re-pair from system Bluetooth settings first.
What paper width do I need?
80mm for most printers. Some compact models use 58mm — check your printer spec before ordering.
