Adjusting the Paper Roll Near-End (NE) Sensor
Below are two situations where a roll paper NE sensor adjustment is required.
•
To adjust the detection position to suit the diameter of the roll paper core used.
•
To adjust the detection position of the remaining amount of roll paper.
•
Since roll paper cores vary slightly in shape, depending on paper roll design and manufacturing tolerances, it is impossible to detect the remaining paper exactly.
•
Use roll paper with a core inner diameter of 12 mm {0.47"} and outer diameter of 18 mm {0.71"} so that the NE sensor can detect the remaining paper as accurately as possible.
Follow the steps below to adjust the roll paper near-end sensor.
1

Spooler and Print Forwarding
Spooler
A spooler for saving print data and conducting background printing is implemented in the TM-DT software.
Even in systems where multiple print jobs are concentrated, an application system can be configured where response is not impeded.
This can be used in TM-DT software Ver.3.0 or later.
General printing applications finish transactions upon confirming the printing. Due to such waiting, response times deteriorate in systems where multiple print jobs are concentrated. The spooler application stores print data and immediately returns the printing results to the application. This allows the application to proceed to the next operation without waiting for the current printing job to be completed.
Processing Flow using the Spooler Function

Chapter 4 System Development Using TM-DT Software
1
Devices A to C request printing of data A to C almost simultaneously.
2
The TM-DT software saves the print data in the spooler in the order it receives it, and returns the printing results (JobID, printing result = true) to each device.
3
Each device application completes the printing process and executes the next operation.
4
This product successively prints print data A to C.
5
The TM-DT software saves the printing results (JobID, printing result = true) in the log.
•
If the printer cannot print because it is offline or there is an error, print data cannot be printed even if spooled. Since printing results are logged, they can be confirmed from the application.
For the confirmation method, see "Checking the print results" (page 77) .
•
When power to this product is turned off, the spooler saved fields are erased.
•
If the print data exceeds the remaining capacity of the spooler and cannot be spooled, the print data is erased. Concerning the spooler capacity, see
"TM-DT Software Specification"

75
Chapter 4 System Development Using TM-DT Software
Print Forwarding
Print forwarding, which enables printing to be performed from a different printer if it cannot be performed on another one is implemented in the TM-DT software. You can configure a secure system that enables printing to be performed on a separate printer even if one printer cannot be used. All you need to do is specify the forwarded printer in the case where printing cannot be performed to EPSON TMNet WebConfig. There is no need to resend print data.
This can be used in TM-DT software Ver.3.0 or later.
Complicated processing is required in order to implement a function by a general application for printing from a separate printer when a printer cannot be printed. By using print forwarding, since the TM-DT software automatically conducts forward printing, the printing process on the customer's application can be simplified.
Processing Flow using the Spooler Function
<Device (application)>
<Printer A> <Printer B>
1
The device application sends the print data to the TM-DT software.
2
The TM-DT software tries to conduct printing process on printer A but cannot because the printer is offline. The TM-DT software retries the number of times that is set in the spooler function.
3
The TM-DT software prints with printer B.
•
If a printer that is set as a forwarding source or forwarding destination cannot print because it is offline or because of an error, printing is not performed even if forward printing is set. The printing results are logged and can be confirmed from the application. For the confirmation
method, see "Checking the print results" (page 77)
.
•
When power to this product is turned off, the forward printing data is erased. The forward printing settings are not erased.
•
If the print data exceeds the remaining capacity of the spooler and cannot be spooled, the
print data is erased. Concerning the spooler capacity, see "TM-DT Software Specification"

Chapter 4 System Development Using TM-DT Software
Checking the print results
When the spooler is disabled
After printing, the job ID and print results are returned to the application. Also, when printing cannot be performed, the job ID, print results, and error code are returned.
When the spooler is enabled
•
When print data cannot be spooled:
[JobID, Print result = false, Error code = EX_SPOOLER (spooler stopped)] is returned to the application.
•
When print data can be spooled:
After spooling the print data, [JobID, Print result = true] is returned to the application. Printing is not performed at this point. Make an inquiry from the application to this product to confirm if printing was performed.
Checking the print results from the application
If inquired of print result from the application, the product returns the following information.
•
Printing succeeded: [JobID, Print results = true]

Communication Box
A communication box, which is a virtual space for exchanging data between applications, is implemented in the
TM-DT software. The TM-DT software discloses the virtual data space, which is identified by box ID, to applications. The box ID can be used by multiple applications, making it possible to easily configure a system for exchanging data between applications.
The communication box can be set and used from applications compatible with Epson ePOS SDK and ePOS-
Device XML.
This can be used in TM-DT software Ver.2.5 or later.
Communication Box Mechanism

Server Direct Print
Server Direct Print is implemented in the TM-DT software. The function allows the TM-DT software to issue printing requests to Web server applications, conduct printing upon directly acquiring print data from the Web server, and notify the printing results to applications.
General printing system applications perform printing upon designating the printer. A function for including ePOS-Print XML print data in response to printing requests can be implemented in server direct print applications. Since the printer IP address is not specified from the application, printing can be performed via the Internet even in environments where printing is difficult because the IP address cannot be acquired on the Web server side or the device cannot be controlled via the Internet due to security policy settings.
Because the Web server application only includes print data in the response, printing can be performed without designating the printer.
Processing Flow Using the Server Direct Print Function
1
The TM-DT software issues a print request to the Web server application.
2
The Web server application sends a response that includes print data to the TM-DT software.
3
The TM-DT software sends print data to the printer and performs printing.
4
The software notifies the printing results to the application.

Method Used to Set multiple TM-DT devices
To install and operate multiple this products you will need to set IP addresses for each device and configure various printing control settings.
The following method is available in order to configure settings efficiently.
•
Configure settings for each device separately using EPSON TMNet WebConfig
Basic setup procedure. Connect a keyboard and a display to the TM-DT devices and have a worker setup each device individually.
Save and register web content and certificate files to a USB memory stick or similar storage device.
See
"TM-DT Software Settings" on page 95 for more information on this method.
•
Configure settings using a TM-DT software settings file saved to a USB memory stick
This method is used to have the product automatically configure settings from the settings file on the USB memory stick. When doing so a user does not need to connect a keyboard and display to perform operations.
This is the conventional Easy Setup method.
Prepare a settings file (setting.ini) with TM-DT settings on a Windows computer. Then, put this settings file along with web content and the certificate file onto a USB memory stick.
A separate USB memory stick for each TM-DT will need to be prepared when setting IP addresses for multiple TM-DT devices individually.
See "Deployment Guide" for more information on this method.
•
Configure settings by building a configuration server system
This method automatically applies settings using the settings file downloaded by the TM-DT based on a request sent to the configuration server.
This allows for a more efficient configuration system through the setting of functions used to configure individual settings, such as different IP addresses for each TM-DT, on the configuration server.
First, build a configuration server system and prepare TM-DT settings data to include TM-DT settings, web content and the certificate file. You will need to configure settings for the TM-DT so that it sends the request to the configuration server.
See "Deployment Guide" for more information on this method.

Software and Manual
The following software and manuals are prepared for developing applications.
Development kit
EPSON OPOS ADK
EPSON JavaPOS ADK
Software
EPSON OPOS ADK for .NET
Overview
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.
OPOS ADK for .NET is a Microsoft POS for .NET compliant business standard driver that allows you to develop applications that are compati-ble with UPOS (UnifiedPOS). 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.
∗
: 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 drivers. It is not a driver to be used for printing from commercial applications.

System Development using the Thin-Client Environment
You can configure a Thin-Client system utilizing the Windows PC-POS System.
The Thin-Client solutions provided by each company are used in system configuration.
For details, see the "TM-DT Thin-Client System Setup Guide".
Desktop Virtualization
Desktop virtualization is a system that virtualizes the entire OS client desktop. The OS desktop screen executed on the server is transferred to the client, and the user operates the virtual desktop to execute applications.
Control of Peripherals
•
Printer, cash drawer, customer display:
Control is performed through communication between the Epson communication modules mounted on the guest OS and client.
•
HID device:
Client's Windows standard driver is recognized as a keyboard device.
Application Virtualization
Application virtualization refers to virtualized systems for each application. The user executes without installing applications in the client OS. There are two methods for application virtualization. The virtualized applications are distributed and executed by the client, or the application screen executed in the server is transferred to the client and operated.
Control of Peripherals
The control method differs according to the method of application virtualization.
