Can Orders be Sent to a Printer after Purchase?

just wanted to know if there was a way for the orders to be sent directly to a my printer after a customer has finished completed their order and paid for it?

I don't recall that being a feature. However a code head may drop by with a solution or you may have to hire someone to code it. I'm sure it can be done.

Your webserver is not connected directly to the printer on your PC.

If you absolutely must have a printout immediately, you could try a couple options:

set up something on your PC's email system to automatically print certain emails when received
subscribe to an email-to-fax service and have the orders faxed to you when received
