If you have the windows driver installed you should be able to use it as 
a normal printer. Lookup TPrinter in the help. However for printing 
receipts the result is often not acceptable. I would recommend using the 
Epson OPOS ADK for this. Available from www.epson-pos.com.

There are however a few (minor) problems with builder and the OPOS. Look 
in the archieve of the activex newsgroup for the discussions an OPOS.
