Cash Register Peripherals

Epson Printer and Cashdrawer

Here is a sample xml file for a typical Epson configuration: [Epson Sample Configuration Download]

If you want to work with Epson-Seiko cash register peripherals some extra steps are necessary:

• Download and unzip the ADK from the following site: Epson Biz or from [OS.bee mirror of Epson Windows Driver and Setup Download]
• You must pass a registration process on the Epson site
• Install the ADK by starting the executable EPSON_JavaPOS_1.14.3.exe from the directory EPSON_JavaPOS_ADK_1143 and follow the instructions of the program.
• From the start menu launch SetupPos and configure the physical hardware according to the Epson manuals

• Save the configuration and note the path to the configuration file. The name is not important, but must be entered in the preferences in OS.bee under "External Data" (see common section below).

The content of this xml file looks something like this:
