Step 1: Check if the Printer is Already Installed
Ensure the printer is powered on and connected to your computer via a USB cable.
Open Control Panel on your Windows computer.
Navigate to Devices and Printers (or Printers and Faxes for older versions of Windows).
Check if the printer appears on the list of installed printers. It should be listed as something like Star SP700 Cutter (SP742).
If the printer is installed, skip to Step 3.
If it’s not installed, continue to Step 2.
Step 2: Install the Printer Driver
Download the Star SP700 printer driver.
After downloading, unzip the file by right-clicking and selecting Extract all.
Open the unzipped folder and double-click on the installer to begin the installation.
Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.
Once the installation is complete, the printer should now appear in Control Panel as Star SP700 Cutter (SP742).
Step 3: Install QZTray
Download and install QZTray, an application that allows CleanCloud to connect to your printer via a web browser. Follow this QZTray setup guide for detailed installation instructions, and ensure that QZTray is running in the background on your computer.
Step 4: Add Printer to CleanCloud
Log into your CleanCloud account.
Go to Settings → Hardware.
Scroll down to the Garment Tag Printer section.
Select Star as the printer manufacturer.
Enter the exact name of the printer as it appears in Control Panel (usually Star SP700 Cutter (SP742)).
Activate options like Auto Print Garment Tag if needed.
Click Update to save the settings.
If this is your first printer setup, you will be asked to allow CleanCloud to communicate with QZTray. Check the Always Allow option and click OK.
✅ Your Printer is Ready to Use!
Try creating an order to test the printer and ensure everything is working smoothly.
