This article is a walkthrough of the requirements, supported printers, and setup of Cloud Print in Weedmaps admin.
Review the sections and follow the steps below to start setting up your cloud printer.
Requirements
To receive printed orders, listings must have an active WM Point-of-Sale and Orders integration. To see some of our supported integration partners, click here.
Live menu (POS) integration
You can view a list of supported “live” or “in beta” integrations for your menu in WM Admin:
Using your Weedmaps admin account, Log in.
From the left-hand navigation menu, click Listings.
Click Edit.
At the top navigation, click the Menu tab.
Click POS Integrated.
Click the Point of Sale dropdown.
WM Orders integration
Here, you can view a list of point-of-sale service providers for your WM Orders integration.
Unique names and passwords
Each printer setup needs to have a unique name.
EXAMPLE: Suppose you have two printers set up in the front room; both can not be named Front Room. To distinguish them, they’ll need to be named Front Room 1 and Front Room 2.
Each printer also requires a password. If you change the password in WM Admin, please ensure you’re also changing the password in Star Micronics.
NOTE: Passwords can be the same across multiple printers.
Supported printers
Weedmaps supports the following CloudPRNT-enabled printers from Star Micronics:
SP742: Impact printer

You can view a list of supported Star Micronics printers in WM Admin:

Setting up Cloud Print in WM Admin
