CaterZen Catering Software integrates with Star’s TSP143IV SK printer to help restaurants organize, identify, and fulfill catering orders with greater accuracy from the kitchen to the customer.
Somerset, NJ – July 10, 2026 – Star Micronics, a global provider of point-of-sale (POS) hardware, cloud printing, and labeling solutions, today announced its integration with CaterZen Catering Software, a catering management platform built specifically for restaurants. Through the integration, CaterZen’s Catering Kitchen Display System (KDS) generates linerless labels on Star’s TSP143IV SK sticky linerless label printer as orders are prepared, helping restaurants keep complex catering orders organized from the kitchen to the customer.
Extending the Catering Kitchen Workflow
Catering orders are often larger, more customized, and more time-sensitive than traditional restaurant orders. Multiple trays, individually packaged meals, dietary restrictions, delivery locations, and scheduled pickup times all require clear labeling and organization throughout preparation and fulfillment.
CaterZen helps restaurants manage every stage of the catering process, from customer inquiries and proposals to order management, production, online ordering, delivery coordination, marketing, and repeat business. In 2017, CaterZen introduced its Catering Kitchen Display System (KDS) to help restaurants manage catering production more efficiently. As customers looked to extend those digital workflows with printed labels, integrating the Star TSP143IV SK became a natural next step, allowing restaurants to generate clear, professional linerless labels directly from the KDS as orders are prepared.
“We built CaterZen specifically for restaurant operators because catering requires workflows that fit the way restaurants actually work. Integrating Star’s TSP143IV SK gives our customers a dependable way to organize and identify every catering order while maintaining the professional presentation that keeps customers coming back.”
The integration helps restaurants:
- Print catering labels directly from CaterZen order workflows
- Clearly identify trays, containers, bags, and individually packaged meals
- Include customer names, delivery destinations, and special instructions
- Organize complex catering orders during preparation and packing
- Reduce packing and handoff errors before pickup or delivery
Built for High-Volume Catering Workflows
The Star TSP143IV SK is a single, compact linerless sticky label printer that gives restaurants the flexibility to handle everyday transactions and catering fulfillment with one printer. Repositionable linerless labels can be applied, removed, and repositioned without leaving adhesive residue, making them well-suited for catering containers, delivery bags, and order packaging. The printer also helps reduce liner waste while providing more labels per roll than traditional label media.
“Large catering orders leave very little room for error. The last step before an order leaves the kitchen is often the one customers notice most. Clear, accurate labeling helps ensure every catering order arrives organized, identifiable, and ready to serve.”
Supporting Restaurants That Cater
As catering continues to grow as an important revenue channel for restaurants, operators need systems that simplify execution without adding unnecessary complexity. Together, CaterZen and Star provide a connected solution that helps restaurants manage catering orders, improve fulfillment accuracy, strengthen food presentation, and support a consistent customer experience for every event, meeting, and large-order delivery.
