      I have the same issue as in this post:
      How to Setting Margins to Print on Thermal Printer?

      Because it’s the case that the printer will print without the margins if the job is passed manually (I view the template preview in admin interface, then print in Chrome and change margin to none) it seems that cloudprint can accept a parameter of zero margin.

      This snippet at Stack exchange:
      link
      [admin edit – added missing link text]
      Seems to be trying to pass the parameter.

      Could you please tell me where the code to test this is (I will copy to Themes before altering as per your advice), I can’t find the wppizza-order-print.php file that original poster on this issue altered.

      Chrome Print Preview is able to send a zero margin paramater , and it seems to be possible in the GCP API See Section on Margins

      I think most people would prefer to use the cloud print with a thermal printer in shop environment and Epson is very popular in that space.

        all the wppizza cloudprint plugin does is send the order to cloudprint based on the template (settings) you have selected . it really is between cloudprint and the printer itself to do what you want it to do .
        This is nothing the plugin has control over.

        furthermore, the links you posted seem to refer to the settings of the device itself , not any parameters you can send to it to dynamically change them . not from what I can see anyway

        >This snippet at Stack exchange ….. Seems to be trying to pass the parameter.
        it also says there that it does not work

        please also see here. maybe you can get some ideas from there as a workaround perhaps

        generally speaking, how things are printed once the order has been sent to cloudprint is entirely the printers responsibility. if it does not print margins (for example) then you will have to speak to the printer manufacturer . only they will know about this
