🖨️ Print Fast - Manual and automatic thermal printing without opening the browser's print dialog box

Hi everyone,

Whenever I needed to print something from a Bubble app, the browser print dialog would end up disrupting the workflow, especially in scenarios like POS systems, delivery apps, or receipt printing.

After searching for solutions and not finding anything that properly addressed this problem, I developed Print Fast.

Print Fast allows Bubble applications to perform local thermal printing on Windows, using 58mm and 80mm thermal printers, without opening the browser print dialog. Printing can be triggered either manually by the user or automatically through workflows.

:wrench: How it works

The solution is composed of:

  • Bubble plugin
  • Google Chrome extension
  • Windows application

These components enable direct communication with the thermal printer via COM port, running on the user’s machine.

:receipt: Features:

  • Regular and bold text

  • Left, center, and right alignment

  • Images

  • QR Codes

  • Layout optimized for 58mm and 80mm thermal paper

:warning: Important:

:check_mark: Compatible only with thermal printers installed via COM port on Windows

:cross_mark: Does not work with USB-only printers without a virtual COM port

:repeat_button: Automatic printing requires N8N

:pushpin: Self-hosted N8N is recommended to avoid higher costs
