Does the desktop printer HS-M80 support the Rice Ball Delivery application?

In the fast-paced world of food delivery, seamless integration between hardware and software is key to keeping orders flowing smoothly. A question we’ve recently received from clients is: “Does the HS-M80 desktop thermal printer support the Rice Ball Delivery application?” Today, we want to provide a clear update: As of now, the HS-M80 does not support direct integration with the Rice Ball Delivery app. While this news may come as a disappointment, we’re committed to transparency and helping you find workable solutions. Let’s break down the details, why compatibility matters, and how we’re addressing this.

Why App Compatibility Matters for Delivery Printers

For food delivery businesses, printers that integrate directly with delivery platforms save time, reduce errors, and streamline operations. When a printer supports an app like Rice Ball Delivery, orders are automatically sent to the printer as they come in—no need for manual input or copying details from a phone or tablet. This automation is critical during peak hours, where delays or mistakes can lead to customer dissatisfaction.


The HS-M80 is a popular desktop thermal printer valued for its fast print speeds (up to 150mm/s), reliable 80mm receipt output, and easy USB/RS232 connectivity—making it a staple in cafes, restaurants, and cloud kitchens. However, like many hardware devices, its compatibility with third-party apps depends on technical collaboration between the printer manufacturer and the app developer.

Why the HS-M80 Doesn’t Support Rice Ball Delivery (Yet)

App-printer compatibility requires two key elements: software protocol alignment and developer collaboration. Here’s why the integration isn’t available today:


  • Protocol Differences: The Rice Ball Delivery app uses specific communication protocols to send order data to printers. For the HS-M80 to support it, our engineering team would need to update the printer’s firmware to recognize and process these protocols—a process that requires access to the app’s technical specifications.
  • Developer Partnerships: Integrating with third-party apps often requires formal collaboration between our team and the app’s developers to test compatibility, resolve bugs, and ensure stable performance. At this stage, we have not established such a partnership with the Rice Ball Delivery development team.


We want to emphasize that this is not a limitation of the HS-M80’s hardware capabilities. The printer is fully capable of handling delivery order prints—it simply lacks the specific software configuration to connect directly to the Rice Ball Delivery app.

Workarounds for Rice Ball Delivery Users

If you’re using the Rice Ball Delivery app and want to use the HS-M80, here are practical workarounds to keep your workflow running:


  • Manual Printing: Export order details from the Rice Ball Delivery app to a document (e.g., PDF or text file) and print via your computer using the HS-M80’s standard USB connection.
  • Middleware Solutions: Use third-party order management software that supports both the Rice Ball Delivery app and the HS-M80. These tools act as a bridge, receiving orders from the app and forwarding them to the printer.
  • Check for Updates: Follow our product updates or contact our support team—we continuously expand app compatibility, and Rice Ball Delivery integration may be added in future firmware updates.

Our Commitment to Expanding Compatibility

As a 10+ year thermal printer manufacturer, we prioritize expanding app compatibility to meet our clients’ needs. Here’s how we’re working to improve integration:


  • Regular Firmware Updates: We release firmware updates for the HS-M80 to add support for new protocols and apps based on client feedback.
  • Client-Driven Prioritization: We track requests for specific app integrations, and Rice Ball Delivery is now on our radar due to increased client inquiries.
  • Open Communication: If you’re a Rice Ball Delivery user interested in HS-M80 integration, reach out to our support team—your feedback helps us prioritize development efforts.


While the HS-M80 doesn’t support the Rice Ball Delivery app today, we’re committed to exploring solutions. In the meantime, the workarounds above can help you leverage the HS-M80’s reliability while using the app. For the latest updates on compatibility, subscribe to our newsletter or contact our technical support team—we’re here to help you find the best printing solution for your business.
