Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Hi,
I'm trying to implement EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS. I failed to
configure that because every time the application is shutting down with the
exception given below. Even the application is not starting with EPSON
TM-T88III printer which is a tested one. The error stack trace given below
occurred for EPSON TM-T88III printer.
I've installed the Java Communication API, copied the EPSOn Jar files in the
lib directory of POS and modified the jpos.xml and pos-containers.xml files
respectively. But everytime I'm getting this error.
I've purchased one EPSON TM-T88IV printer to test and installed
Epson_JavaPOS_ADK_194.exe on its behalf. Every time services not found error
is coming.
Can anybody suggest me how I should proceed and what are the required JAR
files (and from where I can get them) for the said Printer.

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by Branden Strickland <op...@gmail.com>.
Take a look at this page. I've followed it to the T and I'm now getting a
new error, which I'm praying is GOOD. Just substitute 19 for 111 for most
things.

answer.
I've read extensively that when you get the "service does not exist in JCL
registry" that basically for some reason or another, the root of the problem
is that the JCL.jar file doesn't know where jpos.xml is. jpos.xml is where
all the services are listed. The way jpos.xml is found, through the
jpos.properties file. This file is located in 3 yes that right, THREE
places. Should it be? I'm not sure.
It's located in JCL.jar JPOS111.jar and OFBIZ_HOME/specialpurpose/pos/config
I've pointed all three of them to my
OFBIZ_HOME/specialpurpose/pos/config/jpos.xml. It still hasn't taken, but
I"m sifting through some other things right now, hoping to shed some more
light.
I've also confirmed that you don't need the .jars (as far as I can tell
currently!) in the OFBIZ_HOME/specialpurpos/pos/lib/. I've moved them from
JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext to the .../pos/lib and my findings are that they are
read natively from the JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext directory and not the
.../pos/lib. Who knows... Maybe that is my problem.
I figured I would post this just in case it would help anybody else.
I'll post more when I find a more concrete path to printer-heaven.

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by "Ajey.bitin" <aj...@palindromesoftware.com>.
Yes Branden, when i was exploring and searching contents over forums for
related stuffs, I saw your mails and responses too. I'm aware of those and
also i tried to implement them and test them. Unfortunately they didn't work
at all in my situation. After that I was just busy with the customization of
POS screens and all, so i couldn't continue with it.
I wish you all the success for your works and experiments towards it because
if you'll get success, it'll be a great news for all of us who are waiting
for a remedy.
Regards,
Ajey Kumar

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by Branden Strickland <op...@gmail.com>.
Here are some responses to my earlier email that may help you? Like I said,
I'll be working on this today in just a few minutes, so hopefully we can get
something working.
DAN SHIELDS
"What is the contents of your $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext directory? It's
contents (after running the Epson installer) made evident some interesting
classpath paradoxes in the way jpos is intialized. I have several theories
about this that I am attempting to understand. To test one theory, I moved
the jpos.xml file so that it resides on the bootclasspath rather than in
specialpurpose/pos/config, to my surprise this FIXED the problem!"
CHRISTOPHER L
"Now that you mention the $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext directory...
I haven't always had success when directions call for putting files in that
directory. In particular, the only way I was able to get my cash drawer
working in linux is to put the serial port configuration file
(javax.comm.properties) in the classpath. According to the instructions,
that file should have been fine in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext.
I haven't experienced the particular problem you mention though."
JACQUES
"Did you try to use -Djava.ext.dirs ? Not sure it's still right but you may
be interested by this http://www.yoda.arachsys.com/java/extensions.html"
"IIRW, with my Epson TM-T88III and ADK 1.8, I simply put
epsonJposServiceCommon.jar and epsonJposService180.jar in
specialpurpose\pos\lib
and comm.jar in jdk1.5.0_11\jre\lib\ext
and it worked."
Actually It was working since I suspect one of the commits related to
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1630 and related tasks to have
broken the POS in the trunk (maybe r646697 or r643923)

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by "Ajey.bitin" <aj...@palindromesoftware.com>.
You are right Branden, when we install EPSON ADK, it modifies our class path
drastically (don't know where) and it breaks the references with our
applications org.ofbiz.pos.jpos.factory.OfbizJposServiceFactory path and
that is why none of the jpos device (maintained internally by ofbiz) works
worthwhile. I'm too afcing the same problem after installing the ADK for
EPSON.
Sure, we can share stuffs and that will be really great lets see, who is
going to tell a good news first :)

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by Branden Strickland <op...@gmail.com>.
FYI,
I know some of the guys (I have mainly worked with Jacques) around here that
work very closely with the POS. They are typically (not to speak for
them!!) available for consulting work if you need to get them involved if
your back is "against the wall". They're not cheap (which is why I can't
currently afford them :P ) but they know their stuff in and out, and I'm
sure they could get things working.
I'm going to be working on this problem more today when I get out of the
"full time" job.
Hopefully we can help each other out!
I did notice that NO MATTER how I go about installing the components here is
the results.
This is still currently using NULL PRINTER.. So I'm not even really
"calling" the Epson printer yet with my pos-component.xml file.
Install JAVA COMM api. Programs starts fine.
Install RXTXcomm.jar Program starts fine.
Install JAI (java advanced imaging): Everything works fine.
Install EPSON ADK: Program STOPS working, even if I'm still calling the
NULL PRINTER.
I'm very interested to dig through this with my JAVA guy today. I think
EPSON ADK is modifying something that causes OFBIZ to stop working by
modifying the JAVA environment. I'm not sure how yet.. But I hope I can
find out soon!
Thanks for the reply!

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by "Ajey.bitin" <aj...@palindromesoftware.com>.
Hi Branden,
At first thanx for your reply otherwise I was assuming that my problem will
not get attention of even a single user. Anyways, definitely I'll post a
message when my problem will get over. Right now I'm engaged in establishing
database synchronization among POS terminals, PSS and MCS. But the EPSON
printer is still a panic for me which I'll have to look for seriously but
I'm not getting enough time for it.
Hope you will let me know when you'll get some success.
Thanx and my best wishes too.
Regards,
Ajey Kumar

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by "Ajey.bitin" <aj...@palindromesoftware.com>.
Branden,
I think, the only issue that is concerned now, is success of CheckHealth
utility with my printer. I'm wondered why my printer is throwing these two
messages (1. Message: The power supply of the device is off. and 2. Message:
The exclusive access right had not been acquired.) when i try to load it
from my application.
I checked, now serial port is working fine (I checked with BlackBox). I
tried to observe the exact process where it is failing, I got the place,
inside open() of GenericDevice.java, it is failing when it is calling
control.claim(timeout) method. Printer is successfully being opened but it
is failing on the next step of claiming which is used for exclusive devices.
Will you please suggest me what i should do in such situation, I'm sure you
must have faced these hurdles.
With your help and support now i'm feeling myself optimistic for my printer.
Regards,
Ajey Kumar

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by "Ajey.bitin" <aj...@palindromesoftware.com>.
Ohhh,
Is this the only way left for me that I'll have to go for serial interface
card for my printer? It is really ridiculous that EPSON is manufacturing
printer with parallel cable but having factory settings to serial, something
really difficult to understand, also the ADK is coming only for serial..so
we've no way !!
What do you say, will this card work for us? (I think it is working in your
case !!) Also configuration of this card is again a marathon or a cake walk?
Now I'm scared of this EPSON totally.. :)
Thanks Branden

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by Jacques Le Roux <ja...@les7arts.com>.
Yes serial is the way...
Jacques
From: "Branden Strickland" <op...@gmail.com>
HAH!
Yeah thats it. As of now, Epson ADK doesn't support parrallel. Your DIP
switches are probably factory defaulted to Serial, and the communication
wires and protocols are day and night. I would go to somewhere cheap,
purchase this<http://www.posguys.com/receipt-printer_12/Epson-TM-T88IV_694/C823361_5381/>.
It's the serial interface card for the tm-t88iv. You can just slide the old
Parallel one out, (thats what I had to do, because mine came with it as
well!) and put the new serial one in.
I'm not suggesting going to posguys. Where ever you want to buy it from is
obviously up to you, but you need to get that particular part, because using
hardware converters is NOT going to work....I've tried ;)
Hope this gets you running in the right direction.

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by Branden Strickland <op...@gmail.com>.
HAH!
Yeah thats it. As of now, Epson ADK doesn't support parrallel. Your DIP
switches are probably factory defaulted to Serial, and the communication
wires and protocols are day and night. I would go to somewhere cheap,
purchase this<http://www.posguys.com/receipt-printer_12/Epson-TM-T88IV_694/C823361_5381/>.
It's the serial interface card for the tm-t88iv. You can just slide the old
Parallel one out, (thats what I had to do, because mine came with it as
well!) and put the new serial one in.
I'm not suggesting going to posguys. Where ever you want to buy it from is
obviously up to you, but you need to get that particular part, because using
hardware converters is NOT going to work....I've tried ;)
Hope this gets you running in the right direction.

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by "Ajey.bitin" <aj...@palindromesoftware.com>.
Branden,
I forgot to let you know one thing, I think my problem is that I'm using
LPT1. I got my EPSON TM-T88IV printer with parallel cable but SetupPOS
doesn't have a port type option for parallel. How I can configure the
printer with SetupPOS in this case?
Is this the reason why I'm getting my printer status as always off? Can a
right DB9 - DB25 cable and using serial COM1 instead will solve this issue?
Thanks and regards,
Ajey Kumar

I think it will be CSV. :-)
Here comes the link for Data File tool.
http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/~jacopoc/OFBiz's+Data+File+Tools
If you would like to import your data from spreadsheet then following JIRA
issue can be of help for you.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1810
I had put the code from above jira issue into the trunk in rev # 663627.
That code is only a sample code.You can customize that code according to
your need.

Rajeev,
It depends on which format your product database is available. Entity
engine import is the best and it works like a charm. You will need to
have your products in entity-engine format file. You can look at the
demo data in the e-commerce component how data is formatted in xml.
Other option is use cvs. There is a datafile tool in webtools. I have
not played much with it but you can find more information on Nabble or
Google.
Thanks,
Raj

Re: Product Upload
Posted by BJ Freeman <bj...@free-man.net>.
you can look at the demoproducts.xml for how to import using xml and the
entities to use.
if you have flat file you can import using
http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/~jacopoc/OFBiz's+Data+File+Tools
if you have an excel file you can write a import class.

We have about 10000 products. What's the best way to add these many products? Could some body guide about the tables that we need to look up?
Is there any product import tool?

Posted by Rajeev Gupta <ra...@hytechpro.com>.
David,
You had created the initial information for physical inventory. Do you know if there is any other help you may provide?
http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBENDUSER/Physical+Inventory+Adjustment
Our objective:
1) We like to setup initial inventory for products by scanning the products in our store. So somebody will carry the scanner around in the store and customer expectation is that it will set the values for initial inventory.
2) We should be able to provide a way so that they do this physical inventory on a regular basis.
Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS

Branden,
I modified the classpath with this settings and got the serial port working:
set CLASSPATH=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_09\lib;C:\Program
Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_09\lib\comm.jar;
set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_09
set JAVA_LIB=F:\java_lib (the javacomm API)
set Path=C:\Program
Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_09\bin;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;
set CLASSPATH=%JAVA_LIB%\commapi\samples\BlackBox\BlackBox.jar;%CLASSPATH%
The CheckHealth utility is still showing the same exception that the device
is off and has no power supply.
Now when i tried to start my OFBiz application, i got the following
exception:

I think, if my printer will start working with CheckHealth utility, it will
also work with the OFBiz application because now both are throwing the same
exception.
Please put your comments, I'm excited.

Re: Scanners and Printer/EPSON T220 PD
Posted by Jacques Le Roux <ja...@les7arts.com>.

depend on OFBiz but on JavaPOS...

Scanners and Printer/EPSON T220 PD
Posted by Rajeev Gupta <ra...@hytechpro.com>.
Brandon and Ajey,
Do you know if POS supports EPSON T220 PD? We are trying to make it work, and it doesn't.
David,
Is there a list available for supported printers for POS?
Also, what scanner's work with POS?
Regards,
Rajeev Gupta

Branden, i tried to work with BlackBox, its showing the message "No Serial
Port found" when I used this "java BlackBox" command.
Also I placed the javax.comm.properties file to specialpurpose\pos\config,
framework\base\config and framework\base\lib
But the result is same, I'm not able to get my printer working. Suggest me
the needful.

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by "Ajey.bitin" <aj...@palindromesoftware.com>.
Branden, i tried to work with BlackBox, its showing the message "No Serial
Port found" when I used this "java BlackBox" command.
Also I placed the javax.comm.properties file to specialpurpose\pos\config,
framework\base\config and framework\base\lib
But the result is same, I'm not able to get my printer working. Suggest me
the needful.

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by Branden Strickland <op...@gmail.com>.
well the javax.comm.properties must be moved (or copied) to what ever root
directory (or added to the path I'm told?!?! but I'm not sure) you're
running stuff from. Temporarily I have my javax.comm.properties in my
/ofbizROOT. I was getting that "not described in XML" erorr and moving the
file to the root OFBIZ directory fixed it.
Have you tried getting the blackbox Java App to work?

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by "Ajey.bitin" <aj...@palindromesoftware.com>.
I installed fresh java comm api and placed the files on following location:
comm.jar is placed in:
%JAVA_HOME%/lib
%JAVA_HOME%/jre/lib/ext
win32com.dll is placed in:
%JAVA_HOME%/bin
%JAVA_HOME%/jre/bin
%windir%System32
javax.comm.properties in:
%JAVA_HOME%/lib
%JAVA_HOME%/jre/lib
After that I also placed latest RXTX jars and DLL in my JDK folder like
this:
RXTXcomm.jar in \jre\lib\ext (under java)
rxtxSerial.dll in \jre\bin
I've also placed javax.comm.properties in setupPOS directory of EPSON.
But again I'm getting the same exception when I'm trying to use CheckHealth:
Epson CheckHealth Report ErrorCode: 107
ErrorCodeExtended: 5008
Message:
The power supply of the device is off.
!! StackTrace !!
jpos.JposException: The power supply of the device is off. at
jp.co.epson.upos.pntr.init.AbstractPrinterInitialization.getRealtimeStatus(Unknown
source) ………………………………….
But the exception is now changed when I'm trying to run my OFBiz
application, its showing this:

I'm using all this on a PC having Windows XP and service pack 2. Am I in
moving in the right way? I read that you also got this exception
"jpos.JposException: The information is not described in XML", now what I
can do to move further ith the integration?

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by Branden Strickland <op...@gmail.com>.
1) typically the jdk stuff is installed to the /opt/Epson......
There should be an uninstall folder in there, with a script to get it off of
your box.
2) On the clean install**
Run the installation
Install everything (which I think is included in the "typical" package...
You can select custom and check just to be safe.
It will ask you if you have an existing jpos.xml. Say yes, and select it by
browsing to your /ofbizROOT/specialpurpose/pos/config/jpos.xml
The installation will finish.
if you have a manually copy and pasted entry in your jpos.xml for the
TM-T88IV, now is a good time to remove that entry.
enter the /opt/EpsonADK/SetupPOS directory and run the ./SetupPOS command
When SetupPOS starts, you should notice that it only recognizes one device
in the jpos.xml (thats because the rest are just generic and non Epson)
Add a device, select the POS printer you need (TM-T88IV) and save the file.
enter the Healthcheck directory. Copy your javax.comm.properties file over
to the directory.
*****A small important note here. I've been told time and time again that if
I'm planning on using RXTX that you need to modify that file to use it. I
tried it and RXTX kept blowing up on me. I don't know if SUN changed the
way that their COMM.java works, but I left the file as is, using the default
driver and it worked.**** Take this for what you will though, I've heard
mixed results.
Run the script, load your printer (it should look for your jpos.xml) and hit
test. You should get a small slip (please make sure your printer is on! :P
) printed to tell you it worked.
If it doesn't.... Before posting any errors, I would step back once more and
try to get the blackbox application that comes with RXTX (or was it the
javacomm API???) to work. just search for BlackBox, you'll find it. If you
get it to work, that will prove that the serial interface is working and it
will continually print garble to the printer if it's working.
Let me know if you can get this far... and we'll continue!
Thanks

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by "Ajey.bitin" <aj...@palindromesoftware.com>.
Sorry to say but really I forgot to select the jpos.xml file from my ofbiz
application. I'm using EPSON TM-T88IV thermal printer in a serial interface.
Even now on my system, I'm not able to uninstall EPSON ADK 1.9.4 because it
is not giving me any option for uninstall. I think you are right because my
printer is not working even with CheckHealth utility.
If selecting jpos.xml from pos while the process if installation modifies
the appropriate jar file, then it should really work on a fresh
installation. I'll now try to configure the same application on a different
PC along with Printer and ADK 1.9.4, will you please put some light on the
correct path I should follow while this fresh configuration, I don't wanna
fail this time.
I'm so happy that now a torchbearer is with me.
Thanks Branden, thanx for all this.

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by Branden Strickland <op...@gmail.com>.
when you install JAVA ADK are you selecting the jpos.xml file in
/pos/config/jpos.xml to modify?
Before getting the printer to work in ofbiz, you need to get the Checkhealth
script working. You must specify at install the JPOS.xml file so that the
software can use it to edit the configuration, as well as modify the correct
jar that contains the JCL information.
Are you using serial?

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by "Ajey.bitin" <aj...@palindromesoftware.com>.
Hi Branden,
I did all the things as suggested by you but still I'm facing problem. As
you have resolved this completely, I'm sure you can help me a lot by putting
proper light on it.
I've installed Epson ADK 1.9.4 on my system. My printer EPSON TM-T88IV is
printing fine with its test pages, even I'm able to print with it in any of
windows application like MS-Word but my POS is not initializing it at all.
The JARs in /specialpurpose/pos/lib are as follows:
pos.jar, uposcommon.jar, epsonupos.jar, jpos19.jar, xercesImpl.jar,
xml-apis.jar and looks-2.0.2.jar
I've also kept the javax.comm.properties in the CheckHealth directory of
EPSON.
I'm using jdk1.5.0_09 and all respective jar files are available on
installation in my C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_09\jre\lib\ext directory.
jpos.xml (generated with the help of SetupPOS utility of Epson:
The errors and exceptions I'm getting are as as follows:
Epson CheckHealth Report
ErrorCode: 107
ErrorCodeExtended: 5008
Message:
The power supply of the device is off.
!! StackTrace !!
jpos.JposException: The power supply of the device is off.

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by Branden Strickland <op...@gmail.com>.
Very true! He mentioned this before... And I have yet to use anything but
1.9.
I did give up on 1.11. It was just a mess!
When I find time, I may try 1.8 to confirm Jacques's comment. although I
have no reason to believe him otherwise!
Gook luck!

Just as a complementary information : I did not cross any such problems with 1.8 (I'm still currentluy using 1.8) with my TM-T88III
either on Windows or Linux...

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by Branden Strickland <op...@gmail.com>.
Yes, I was able to get the printer system working.
First, I have to state that All Null devices are still "broke". After
running the EpsonADK.bin (1.8 1.9 .1.11, doesn't matter) it seems to modify
something that doesn't allow the POS to find the Null devices. I don't know
why. All the .java files and .jar and .class files are located where they
were, and are available, and the "path" (org.ofbiz.pos.....{something}.class)
seems just fine. However, I suppose since I have hardware I don't really
need them....so I digress! :P
I followed the link <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1015>that
Jacques put in the POS section that links to the jira forum that explains
the 1.9 installation. I followed that to the T (except I had to put the
javax.comm.properties in the root directory IE either in Checkhealth (when
checking the device before adding it to ofbiz...or to the ofbiz root... I
believe adding this to the classpath will provide the same result.
To fix the cashdrawer.... (I suppose it was never broke, so I didn't "fix
it". I just...DUH added it to the Epson configuration through SetupPOS.)
making sure to point it to the jpos.xml in pos/config/. (very important).
I added the only cashdrawer that the program would let me. You initialy
tell it it's on the TTYS0 (if it's attached to the printer...(this will
point to whatever input your printer is...because the signal must pass
through the printer.) Then it asks to select the printer it's attached
too... Provides you the logical name to use in pos-containers.
The rest is cake walk!
Let me know if you have questions!
thanks!

Hi Branden,
Did you get success in the implementation of EPSON TM-T88IV POS Printer with
OFBiz? I couldn't see any of your updates since a long on this, please let
me know if any good news is there.
Thanks,

Re: Configuring EPSON TM-T88IV Thermal printer in POS
Posted by Branden Strickland <op...@gmail.com>.
This is quite a late reply.
I've been busy so I didn't respond, but I wanted to let you know that you're
in the same boat.
I get the exact same error, and I've been trying to work on it for the last
month or so.....To no avail.
If I figure something out, I'll post it here... If you do, could you do the
same?
Thanks!!
