*1: OLE technology developed by Microsoft divides software into part blocks. The OPOS driver is presupposed
to be used with a development environment, such as Visual Basic, unlike ordinary Windows printer drivers.
It is not a driver to be used for printing from commercial applications. You can acquire documents regarding
the UnifiedPOS from the following link.

EPSON Advanced
Printer Driver
(APD)
EPSON TM Virtual
Port Driver
Description
This is a development kit for controlling TM printers from native applications of
smart devices. This includes libraries, manuals, and sample programs.
This OCX driver can control POS peripherals using OLE technology. *1
Because controlling POS peripherals with original commands is not required on
the application side, efficient system development is possible.
The OPOS ADK for .NET is a POS industry standard printer driver compatible
with Microsoft POS for .NET. It allows you to develop applications that are
compatible
with the UPOS (Unified POS) specification. When developing applications,
use a separate development environment such as Microsoft Visual Studio .NET.
JavaPOS is the standard specification which defines an architecture and device
interface (API) to access various POS devices from a Java based system. Using
JavaPOS standard API allows control with Java based applications of functions
inherent to each device. A flexible design with Java language and JavaPOS
enables many different types of computer systems, such as stand alone or
network configuration, to use a same application. You can use JavaPOS to
build applications and drivers independently of platforms. This allows flexible
configurations using thin clients to meet the system requirements.
Description
In addition to ordinary Windows printer driver functions, this driver
has controls specific to POS. The Status API (Epson original DLL) that
monitors printer status and sends ESC/POS commands is also
attached to this driver.
This is a serial/parallel-USB/LAN conversion driver to make an Epson
TM/BA/EU printer connected via USB or LAN accessible from a POS
application through a virtual serial or parallel port. It allows you to
directly control devices connected via USB or LAN with ESC/POS
commands without making changes in the POS application that
controls devices connected via a serial or parallel interface.
