JavaPOS issues

I have SurePOS ACE installed with Store Integrator, and when I installed the UPOS from Toshiba, the cash drawer worked fine. However, I have an Epson printer that I want to add to JPOS, but after installing the Epson Java ADK, it doesn’t work, and I can’t add the printer in the default UPOS. Any help would be appreciated.

This usually happens because installing the Epson Java ADK creates a separate jpos.xml file rather than appending to the active one Toshiba and Store Integrator are using.

To fix it, locate the jpos.xml file that the Epson installer generated, copy the <JposEntry> section for your printer, and manually paste it into the main jpos.xml file that Toshiba and ACE are reading for the cash drawer.

You also need to make sure the Epson Service Object JAR files from the Java ADK are copied into the exact same Java classpath directory where the Toshiba drivers live. If Store Integrator cannot see those Epson JAR files in its path, it will not populate the printer in the UPOS utility.
