Compatibility & requirements
The RP326 is listed for use with Windows, Mac and Linux, and connects through USB, serial or Ethernet. For Ethernet printing, the printer and computer need to be on the same network. It does not use Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, so plan on a wired connection. The stated paper format is 80 mm, with a 72 mm print width, direct thermal printing means receipts are printed on thermal paper without an ink cartridge or ribbon.
This model is not compatible with Square, Grubhub, DoorDash, Uber Eats, Lightspeed, Postmates or Chromebook, and it does not support iPhone or iPad printing. POS software and device compatibility matter as much as the connector, so match the printer to the system used at the counter before setting up a workflow.
Who it’s for
The RP326 is intended for businesses that need printed receipts, bills or tickets at a fixed workstation. A shop can connect it to a compatible computer at the till, while a restaurant can place it near order handling or mount it on a wall using the two hanging holes on the underside. The cutter helps separate each receipt after printing, and the cash drawer output can be used in a compatible till arrangement.
It may suit a small business, retail counter, café or canteen that wants a wired thermal printer rather than a mobile Bluetooth device. Buyers often describe setup and everyday use as straightforward, while feedback on print results and compatibility is mixed. The listed operating-system support and the POS software in use are therefore useful points to consider together.
