The Order Printer PDF Invoice pricing plan offers you two options: a Free plan and an Unlimited plan. The Free plan allows you to generate PDFs for your first 50 unique orders, while the Unlimited plan, priced at $5. 99 per month, removes this limit. It's important to note that the Free plan's lifetime limit has changed to 50 unique orders as of October 12, 2026, down from 100. If you reach the limit, you will need to upgrade to the Unlimited plan to continue generating PDFs.
You start on the Free plan without needing to approve a paid subscription. Each new order generated uses one of your 50 free orders, and once you reach this limit, the Print and Download functions will be disabled. If you uninstall and reinstall the app, your usage does not reset, and the 50-order limit remains in effect. To maintain uninterrupted access to PDF generation, consider upgrading to the Unlimited plan if you anticipate exceeding the free order limit.
This guide explains how the 50-order lifetime limit works and how orders are counted. It also shows what happens if you reinstall the app, and when it makes sense to upgrade.
How the Order Printer PDF Invoice pricing plan works
You start on the Free plan. You do not need to approve a paid subscription to get started. Each time you generate a PDF for a new order, that order uses one of your 50 free orders.
Here is the usual flow:
- Install the app. You start on the Free plan.
- Print or download PDFs for your orders. Each new order uses one of your 50 free orders.
- After 50 unique orders, the Print and Download actions are disabled.
- Upgrade to the Unlimited plan to keep generating PDFs without a limit.
The table below shows both plans side by side.
| Feature | Free Plan | Unlimited Plan |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $0 | $5.99/month |
| Print & download limit | First 50 unique orders (lifetime) | Unlimited |
| Does the limit reset monthly? | No. It is a one-time quota. | No usage caps. |
| After the limit is reached | Print and Download are disabled | You can continue without interruption. |
| Paid subscription approval to start | Not required | Upgrade anytime |
| Cancel | N/A | Cancel anytime, no lock-in |
Pricing plan details explained
Free plan 50 unique orders
You can generate, print, and download PDFs for up to 50 unique orders. This is a one-time quota. It does not reset every month.
Price $0
The Free plan costs nothing.
What you can generate Documents
You can create invoice, packing slip, and refund PDFs for your orders. All of them count toward the same 50-order limit.
When you reach the limit Limit reached
After your 50th unique order, the Print and Download actions are disabled. Your templates and settings stay saved. To continue, upgrade to the Unlimited plan.
How unique orders are counted Counting rule
Each unique order counts only once toward your 50-order limit.
Repeated print and download actions No extra count
You can print or download the same order again and again. It will not use up more of your limit.
Number of document types No extra count
The invoice, packing slip, and refund slip for one order still count as one order. It does not matter how many document types you generate for it.
Here is how that looks in a real store:
- Print the invoice for order #1042 — uses 1 of your 50 orders
- Download the packing slip for order #1042 — still 1 order
- Print a refund slip for order #1042 next week — still 1 order
- Download the invoice for order #1043 — now 2 orders used
Reinstalling the app Important
The 50-order limit covers the full installation history of your store. If you uninstall and install the app again, you do not get a fresh set of 50 orders.
Existing stores Applies to all
If you installed the app before 12 October 2026 and you reinstall it, the revised 50-order limit applies to you as well.
If you already used all 50 orders Upgrade needed
You must upgrade to the Unlimited plan to continue using the app. Reinstalling will not bring the Print and Download actions back.
Unlimited plan $5.99/month
You can print and download PDFs for all of your orders. There are no usage limits, so you can keep working without interruption.
Price and billing $5.99/month
The Unlimited plan costs $5.99 per month. Billing starts from the charge approval date.
Upgrade and cancel Flexible
You can upgrade anytime, even before you reach the Free plan limit. You can also cancel anytime. There is no lock-in.
Common use cases
Trying the app first
You run a new store and want to test the templates. You print a few invoices and see how they look. The Free plan covers this at no cost.
Small store with few orders
You sell handmade candles and get about 8 orders a month. Your 50 free orders can last around six months.
Fast-growing store
You ship about 40 orders a week. You will reach the limit in roughly nine days. In this case, upgrading to Unlimited early keeps Print and Download available.
Reinstalling after the limit
You used all 50 orders and reinstall the app, hoping for a fresh start. The limit does not reset, so you need the Unlimited plan to continue.
Tips & best practices
2. Reprint freely — printing or downloading the same order again does not use more of your limit.
3. Do not rely on reinstalling — your usage carries over, so reinstalling will not give you more free orders.
4. Check your billing date before you cancel — Shopify may still charge you for the current billing cycle if you uninstall before it ends.
5. Contact support early — if your usage looks wrong, ask us before your busiest days.
Quick recap
- Free plan — covers your first 50 unique orders, one time only
- Counting — each unique order counts once, no matter how many times or which documents you generate
- Reinstalling — your lifetime usage does not reset, and existing stores get the same 50-order limit
- After the limit — Print and Download are disabled until you upgrade to Unlimited plan
- Unlimited plan — unlimited PDFs for $5.99/month, with no lock-in
