Application Development Information
This chapter describes how to control the printer and gives information useful for printer application
development.
Controlling the Printer
The printer supports the following command systems:
• ePOS-Print XML
• ESC/POS
Users can control the printer by using the aforementioned commands, or the following development kits or
drivers.
• Epson ePOS SDK
• OPOS ADK
• OPOS ADK for .NET
• JavaPOS ADK
• EPSON Advanced Printer Driver (APD)
• EPSON TM Virtual Port Driver
• Epson TM/BA Series Thermal Printer Driver
ePOS-Print XML
ePOS-Print XML is the Epson original control command system for POS printers defined in XML. With ePOS-
Print XML commands, you can print in environments where HTTP communication is available and from OS
applications. For detailed information about ePOS-Print XML, see the ePOS-Print XML User's Manual.
ESC/POS
ESC/POS is the Epson original printer command system for POS printers and customer display. With ESC/POS
commands, you can directly control all the printer functions, but detailed knowledge of printer specifications or
combination of commands is required, compared to using drivers and applications.
For detailed information about ESC/POS commands, see the ESC/POS Command Reference that can be
accessed from the following URL.
