Technical Question

[Wiregeek]

You’ve probably seen the TM-T88III before, though the current model is the TM-T88IV–they’re ubiquitous and especially common in restaurants. We chose it because the receipt prints quickly (which reduces the probability that a stack of order receipts gets missorted such that an employee puts the wrong receipt in the wrong parcel), is thermal so there is no ink to replace (which reduces the cost of consumables), uses standard thermal receipt paper (which is cheap, and we can always run out to Staples if we run out), and, perhaps most importantly, we found one in a box in the back of the warehouse.

Lol.

Or you could implement my solution.


To clarify - I loathe POS printers. I had one go tango-uniform because the mac address of the ethernet port it was connected to had changed..   it had gotten moved from port 2 to port 4 on the same switch during a network remodel, and this was enough to make it not play - even after it was moved back to port 2.
and I really don't want to talk about thermal line printers connected to t1 meters..  blech.
