Thanks! TM-T88V working about epsonsimplecups HOT 10 OPEN

I could just agree with you! THANKS A LOT! It works very fine for me.

Nevertheless there are two "issues" that me effected.
The first is the same you told about. Print size is equal to dokument size allways.
The second "issue" is the delay from starting a printing job until the printer feeds the paper and start print. I have to open an issue for that maybe.

Thanks again

Great work! I got it working with the TM-T88V.
When printing jpg images there is a 2cm white margin at the left and about 1cm of the image missing on the right.
Any clue on how I can fix this?

Does anybody know whether this driver works if the TM-T88V is connected via ethernet?

I see.

So let's say if I connect multiple printers of the exact same model to the same Raspberry Pi by USB. Is there a way to uniquely identify each printer, regardless of the USB port?

from epsonsimplecups.

Yes, CUPS will assign a unique serial number per printer. I've tested this with 4 connected USB printers to the pi, you can use the serial number to identify the device.

@corycpf does the serial number for each printer stick even if you plug the printer to a different USB port?

I tried the package from plinth666 but the raster wasn't quite proper and the print timing waas quiet long.

I used then a bunch of free code from Epson, a PPD file from another printer and modify them to produce this new package: https://github.com/groolot/epson-tm-t88v-driver

Better rasterization, cash drawer and buzzer, all is operational.

Hope that could help someone like I was: in pain.

grooot, I tried your ppd file but file not found in usr/lib/filter error is shown in CUPS admin page :(

from epsonsimplecups.

That's because you have to compile the source code with the autotools toolchain: ./configure && make && make install. The only PPD file is not enough, you need the raster filter.

Then you'll find in CUPS admin page the correct PPD line wether you've chosen EPSON as vendor ;)
