Shopify Order Printer

The previous app was better. It supported the logo being part of the invoice and allowed better formatting.

This new system is actually a let down. Worse, they're not going to let us keep using the old one.

I installed this because it said Order Printer would no longer be available and that this app would be better.

The order date it prints is not the date of the order, but rather the date the order was printed. This is quite irritating. Also, the default template prints very small, so is significantly harder to read than the old Order Printer.

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".

A lot of manual work to try and migrate templates. Needs a migration functionality for custom templates. If this is replacing the order printer app shopify should be handling migration for customers not making us recreate the wheel.

Even after doing all the work to manually edit the template it is weirdly different sizes in ways I cant control (tiny fonts, random extra space, etc). Worst, it cuts off the text at the bottom of the order. Half way through the shipping line it just cuts off and leaves off everything past that (order notes, etc)

Address function decided the address needs extra space added above and below that cant be controlled.

Any edits to templates must be done via code, so there is ZERO options for self service if you don't know how to code. Copy and pasting from the old order printer to the new one does not work as it claims it should, there are a lot of things that don't carry over (like pictures, tag lines, QR codes for discounts, etc)

As the deadline is coming due what are we suppose to do about this bad product?
My order page was perfect. And I do mean PERFECT !! What am I suppose to do with this mess that you have created?
I am not a programmer and paid someone to create my order page. Do I now have to pay him again to fix this mess that you have created?
I was proud of my order page and will now be ashamed to include this mess with my orders. I can't believe that you would be pushing a product that has a 2.1 overall rating. Does this mean that you guys are going downhill?
Your new product is uncommonly bad. It doesn't total the products. It doesn't have a place field for my logo.

At least they are giving us time to migrate, but this new app does not support any of the customizations we have implemented in the legacy app. I cannot currently figure out how to add line item images to my invoices. Documentation is very sparse and there are not many templates that are provided in the app that you can customize.

The packing list is not supposed has prices on it! We can not use it! Please follow the current order printer format.

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.

UPDATE: Based on my review, Shopify reached out and they helped ensure my old template imported correctly. When it wasn't, someone fixed the issue quickly. I appreciate Shopify and the team behind this template working to ensure I was satisfied. Thanks much!

I see no advantage in this template. In fact, I see it as one big hassle. It's designed for business to business and not a direct sale to consumers. What you see on the preview is different from how it actually prints (even when you haven't made any changes to the template). For example, the $ signs don't actually line up on the page. That's just sloppy work. It's clear that when this was launched it was not actually tested with a "real" invoice. I find this incredibly frustrating as I now have to figure out how to fix this and it's a total waste of my time. The address and store name pull from your legal store info when most sellers don't use this on receipts. How about Shopify fix these issues and test the template BEFORE actually launching this? Supposedly it's "Easy to Set Up." Hardly.
