Cannot disable item grouping on order tickets

LWB25 — Thu, 20 Nov 2025 02:41:27 GMT

we have unsuccessfully been trying to disable the item grouping feature in the kitchen printer profile. The printer profile shows this feature as disabled, but tickets continue to print as grouped items.

we have deleted and re-created the printer profiles. Powered off the printers and the POS stations. Nothing fixes the problem

I see that other users have the same problem, and none of the solutions provided by customer support were acknowledged to work. Please get this feature fixed.

Our staff uses iPads to send orders directly to a kitchen printer.

As others have mentioned, grouping items causes frequent errors in the kitchen. This has been an ongoing problem. We keep hoping a software update will resolve the issue but it’s been an ongoing issue for nearly a year.

I will check but I’m aware that our Square app had a major update about a week ago and it didn’t fix this issue.

Our staff has been complaining about other new issues in the POS system as a result of the update.
