If you want to print in other languages you will need to edit the source code to set the correct code page and add a translator file for Unicode to ASCII.
Note: this works only for the standard code page 0 (PC437) and code page 19 (international). In this setting you are using ESC/POS to print directly to the Epson, but you need the privilege. If you have more than 1 printer check which /dev/usb/lpx file is generated after switching on the printer. POS: Printer = tmu-220, Mode = file, Port = /dev/usb/lp0. No drivers needed and anyhow Espon drivers for Linux (CUPS & javaPOS) do not work for me.įirst add the user who is using the POS to the lpadmin group via System Settings > User Management. POS software: Openbravo POS and the printer works. I use an Epson TM-U220 on Linux Mint 9 KDE = Kubuntu 10.04.
