Does your PRP-080 printer support OPOS SDK?

No, our current version of PRP-080 printer does not support OPOS SDK, but we are looking forward to add the OPOS compatibility within our next coming version.  Our PRP-080 Receipt Printer is however compatible with the ESC. Command and Win32 Driver of Samsung &  Epson.


What serial speed does your PRP-080 support?

  • Default : 19200 & 38400
  • Special Custom version  : 115200 & 9600

 


I am sure that I've installed the Win32 driver properly, but how come my printer only prints out garbage data?

Please make sure the baud rate in the driver's setting must either be 19200 or 38400
