Drivers and Utilities to be Installed

Drivers
Advanced Printer Driver Ver5
Windows printer driver. The following versions are provided.
Advanced Printer Driver Ver.5.xx
Advanced Printer Driver Ver.3.04 (For Windows 2000)
UPOS
Stands for Unified Point of Service. This is the standard specification of POS market, which defines drivers for controlling POS peripheral devices in various operation environments. The following drivers are provided.
OPOS ADK
OPOS ADK for .NET
JavaPOS ADK for Windows
Utilities
TM-T88V Utility
Allows you to check and configure the TM-T88V settings.
EpsonNet Config
This utility is for configuring network settings, such as IP address, of the printer connected to an Ethernet.
EpsonNet Simple Viewer
This allows you to monitor the status of the printer connected to a network printer or client computer (POS or KIOSK terminal). Using this with TM-T88V Utility makes it possible to change the settings of TM-T88V connected to a client computer.
Epson TM Virtual Port Driver
This allows you to convert TM-T88V from serial / parallel to USB / Ethernet. When your POS application has a serial / parallel port of TM-T88V, and you want to connect TM-T88V via USB / Ethernet, you can use the USB / Ethernet-connected printer from the application as though the printer is serial printer. Because the tool performs the conversion automatically, you do not need to change the application's ESC/POS commands that controls the printer connected via serial / parallel port.
