Print Fast is a receipt printer app for small businesses. Design receipts, bills and order slips on your phone or tablet, scan barcodes to add products and print on 58 mm or 80 mm thermal printers over Bluetooth in seconds. No account and no ads. KEY FEATURES • Totals you can trust: products, tables, discounts, VAT (included in prices or added on top), split payments and change print exactly as shown on screen. • Every character prints: lines with accents or non-Latin scripts are printed as images, so nothing turns into question marks on your thermal printer. • Printer setup in a minute: a test page finds the right paper width, character mode and paper feed for your thermal receipt printer and remembers it. • Print PDFs and pictures: shipping labels, invoices and order screenshots. Pick a file or share it to Print Fast from another app. • Send receipts as an image by messaging app or e-mail. • Product catalog with barcodes, categories and stock: scan a barcode and the product is added to the receipt. • Sales report, end-of-day summary and CSV export from all saved receipts. • Ready-made receipt templates for restaurants, cafés, markets and shipping, plus an optional kitchen copy without prices. • ESC/POS and CPCL thermal receipt printers (often sold as POS printers) over Bluetooth Low Energy; classic Bluetooth and Wi-Fi/LAN where your device supports them. • Works offline. Your receipts, catalog and history stay on your device. PREMIUM (OPTIONAL) Print your own footer text instead of the small onopostore.com line, share clean receipt images and PDFs, see sales by category for any date range, import products and prices from Excel or CSV, keep a daily automatic backup and a longer history, and get priority support. The annual plan includes a 7-day free trial for new subscribers. A cancelled subscription ends after the current billing period. Everything you need to design and print receipts stays free. Print Fast slips are for information only and do not replace an invoice or a fiscal receipt. Printer compatibility depends on the printer model, connection method and supported command set.
