Recommend a Receipt Printer

Hi,

A software vendor (Megasys Loans) told us to go with this for receipt printing:

But we also saw this printer, which looks much more appealing:

And here's a different Epson, which we would look at as another candidate:

Based on the vendor's recommendation of the first printer in this list, will the other two be compatible?

Thanks.

This one does look OK after looking at the description. But still I would suggest you check with the Vendor and advise if this printer can be used instead what they have suggested.

They said the same about Epson, but we're tempted to go with the Star Micronics since it has a 4-year warranty and more reviews. The vendor said the following:

We have not tested those models, but based on the specs they should work. We prefer the Epson since we know we've made it work with Epson printers before. You mainly need to make sure that the printer has a driver for whatever version of Windows that is installed on the workstation that the printer will be attached to.

I think it should be safe to go with the SM, unless you think otherwise.

Edit: But of course, going with an Epson can put some of the responsibility (and the blame) on the software vendor if it doesn't work out. OK, Epson it will be.
