Controlling POS Peripherals from Socket Communication Compatible Applications
A function for controlling this product's POS peripherals and network printers from applications compatible
with Web services is implemented in the TM-DT software.
There is no need to install drivers and plug-ins to terminals.
Through using the ePOS-Device XML system, you can perform printing from various device applications com-
patible with socket communications. You can configure a system for controlling printers without depending on
the OS. Moreover, because there is no need to install drivers and plug-ins to terminals, you can perform control
of POS peripherals from a wide range of devices and systems compatible with Web services.
