Having some trouble with POS? We got you!
This guide walks through a list of the most common POS issues and how you can troubleshoot them.
ROLLER Connect is offline
ROLLER Connect, the service which manages your connection between ROLLER POS and receipt printers is not running or has crashed.
If you're using ROLLER Connect Legacy, go to the guide Restart ROLLER Connect Legacy
If you're using ROLLER Connect Windows service, contact the support team.
Alternatively, consider using production management to manage receipt and docket printing at your venue. Production management uses print stations to connect compatible receipt printers to POS devices over the network and requires no installations or drivers. You can also set up backup docket printers and will have the ability to troubleshoot any docket printing errors directly from POS.
POS offline error
This means that your POS device/computer is not connected to the internet.
If the orange bar frequently appears and disappears, this suggests that you're having intermittent internet issues and we recommend that you speak with your IT support team/provider to help you resolve this.
