Kitchen printer located a very long ways from the register & router/wifi
I am looking for anyone with experience trying to use a kitchen printer that is located 300+ feet from the register/wifi router. Maybe with the use of a wifi extender or something else creative? I am unable to use a ethernet cable.

Hi @toasted, welcome to the seller community and thanks for bringing this up.
While we don't have any official recommendations for a wifi extender, you may want to touch base with Boomtown, who can provide a consultation or on-site support for Square Register setup.
If any other sellers have a similar situation at their restaurant and any tips on what's worked, please don't hesitate to share your insight!

I'm using an Airport Express for extender my Wifi, but caution, your current network needs to be based to an Airport network.
I used TP-link, it works great. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AWRUICG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
If you want stable system use cable for kitchen printer.
Run cable or pay someone to run it . When problem occurres you restart one device and u back in order.
my square stands are connected to separate wifi AP and all kitchen printers(3 in big kitchen ) are connected trough.
More wifi devices are more potential problems in future.
