Please read rule #1

What kind of printer do you have exactly?

What kind of resolution does your printer have?

Most of these printers have very low resolution and that's why your letters are pixelated.

the receipt generator is probably exporting the text as an image inside the pdf instead of actual text.. thats why it looks sharp on screen but pixelated when printed
