Uber Eats Receipt Printer UK | Compatible Printers & Setup

Uber Eats, like Deliveroo and Just Eat, doesn’t automatically route orders to a printer. The Uber Eats Manager app is self-contained — orders arrive, they sit on screen, and someone has to act on them manually unless you configure receipt printing.

It’s the same root issue across all three delivery platforms, and the fix is the same: connect a compatible printer, enable auto-print in the app, and the problem disappears.

Before anything else, connect your printer. For Bluetooth: pair it through the tablet’s system Bluetooth settings first — not through the Uber Eats app. Once it’s paired at OS level, the app will find it.

Then:

1.  Open Uber Eats Manager → Settings → Printing

2.  Select your printer from the discovered list

3.  Enable Auto-print new orders

4.  Set paper width (80mm standard)

5.  Test with a manual print

If auto-print stops working a few days later, the culprit is almost always Android battery management. Go to Device Settings → Apps → Uber Eats Manager → Battery → Unrestricted. Without this setting, Android will suspend the app in the background between orders and kill the auto-print trigger.

Epson TM-M30II — Uber Eats Compatible

The Epson TM-M30II Uber Eats compatible printer from Commandear is specifically tested for Uber Eats Manager. That’s the distinction that matters — not a printer that “should” work, but one that’s been verified. Connects via Bluetooth, compact footprint, 250mm per second print speed.

This is the printer behind “epson uber eats printer” at position 11.3 in GSC. Customers are already searching for it by name.

Star TSP143IV

The Star TSP143IV also works reliably with Uber Eats Manager via Bluetooth or USB. It’s a better option if you’re integrating across multiple platforms or EPOS systems — broader compatibility means fewer headaches as your setup evolves.

Star mPOP

For smaller operations that need receipt printing and a cash drawer in one unit — a compact takeaway, a ghost kitchen — the Star mPOP combines both in one Bluetooth-connected package. Less hardware to manage, less counter space required.

If you’re on an EPOS platform that integrates with Uber Eats — Lightspeed, Tabology, Slerp, and others do — you may not need a dedicated tablet printer at all. Uber Eats orders flow into your main system and print through your existing kitchen or counter printer. Check your EPOS settings first.

For operators running Uber Eats alongside Deliveroo and Just Eat: middleware platforms like Deliverect and Flipdish consolidate all three into a single print queue. One printer serves all three channels. Worth the setup cost from meaningful delivery volume upwards.

See the Deliveroo printer guide and Just Eat printer guide for the other platform setups. The full restaurant context is in the restaurant receipt printer guide.

For Uber Eats specifically, configure for kitchen ticket format rather than customer receipt where your printer supports it. A useful Uber Eats kitchen ticket has:

•    Order ID and time received

•    Full item list with all modifiers — “extra guacamole” needs to appear on paper, not just on screen

•    Special instructions in prominent text

•    Estimated collection time for the rider

Kitchen staff reading a ticket under pressure need the information to be immediately obvious. Test the ticket format during a quiet period, not during service.

What’s the best printer for Uber Eats in the UK?

The Epson TM-M30II Uber Eats compatible printer is specifically tested for Uber Eats Manager. The Star TSP143IV is the broader-compatibility alternative.

Does Uber Eats supply a printer?

No. Uber Eats provides the tablet; you supply the printer. Commandear stocks the verified Uber Eats-compatible Epson model.

Can the same printer serve Uber Eats and my POS?

Yes, via EPOS integration. Without integration, a dedicated printer per delivery tablet is the practical solution — or middleware to aggregate all platforms.

Why did my Uber Eats printer stop auto-printing?

Almost always battery optimisation. Set Uber Eats Manager to unrestricted battery usage in device settings. Also check the printer is connected and auto-print is still enabled after any recent app update.

What paper do I need?

80mm thermal receipt paper. Long rolls (80m) reduce changeover frequency during service.
