Service & Engagement Can I speak to a manager?: A front end thread

There's so many scammers these days I had a dream of a scammer using a new method.
They would ticket switch an items barcode for a return receipt so you wouldn't notice and it would give all the money back to their card.

Obviously it doesn't work like this but A+ to my brain for creativity. 😂
 
Does anyone else have problems with the sticker printers, not printing consistently? Sometimes it seems like every other or every 3rd one doesn't print from either the register or from the device. VP are more likely to fail. The printer prints one out fine, next it makes a noise like it is going to print but then doesn't. It might then print from another register for someone else. My next one might print. I can open it up and shut it and that fixes the problem for sometimes just one sticker sometimes for 15-20 minutes. Rebooting doesn't help nor do I have time to reboot it multiple times an evening.

Super common issue unfortunately, I have to open and close the printer quite often, I'm pretty sure it's from the wheel that spins to push the stickers out getting adhesive from the stickers stuck on it.

Yep. Constantly and lately our printers have been doing the “Printer Not Ready” for hours at a time. It’ll be semi fine all day and then we’re scrambling trying to find any printer that will show “Printer Ready.”

I’m not sure if its a store specific network issue, but this time of year it is killer not to have a defect printer.

just open the printer and close it. usually fixes it for us.
 
Is there a metric to see how much inventory $ is returned to a store each day/week/ month/ Year? Ideally I would like to know how much is returned from our store, from other stores or returned without a receipt. I would also like to see how much is defected out each day/week/ month year.
 
lately it feels like every printer in my store has been extra temperamental
I'm gonna have to agree with you here. The HIP printers usually work without much issue at my store (save for the occasional slip-up with the OPU printer where it stops printing halfway and freezes), but lately they've been straight up not printing for no reason a lot.

I am not for sure but this can probably either be because of the trash wifi, but possibly if two printers are fighting for the same id on the network. You can find a good id by going on Mickra and finding a printer id that has not been used for a long time (or not in the list at all).

I miss our Windows computer because every time a printer acted up I factory reset that ish with the tool on tere, and it worked like brand new.
