Chapter 1 Overview

Restrictions

The APD cannot coexist with OPOS on a computer at the same time.

When using the printer driver for EPSON Terminal Printers (laser printer, ink‐jet printer and others) or EPSON printer window together with the APD, installation and uninstallation must be performed in the following order:

[Installation]

1.EPSON Terminal Printer driver

2.APD

[Uninstallation]

1.

APD

2.

EPSON Terminal Printer driver

 

If you want to overwrite the EPSON Terminal Printer driver after the APD is installed, uninstall the APD first and then overwrite the EPSON Terminal Printer driver.

For a USB connection, the printer driver can be installed by Plug and Play after installing the APD; however, the printer driver cannot be added when the TM printer is offline (cover open, paper out, and so on.) When the printer recovers from the offline status, it will be added.

The maximum number of printers that can be connected simultaneously through a USB connection is 8.

When a Parallel interface TM printer is connected to Windows XP, a Plug and Play request window pops up and ʺEPSON TM‐P2.01ʺ is added in Other devices of the Device manager. Do not perform [Uninstall] or [Update Driver Software] for this device. When a Parallel interface TM printer is connected to the computer prior to the driver installation, the computer detects ʺEPSON TM‐P2.01ʺ, but you should not uninstall or update, just click [Cancel]. (It is added to Other device in the Device manager, and deleted when the driver is installed.)

When you connect a TM printer with parallel interface before installing the driver, ʺEPSON‐ P2.01ʺ is detected. In such case, just click ʺCancelʺ and not select ʺUninstallʺ or ʺUpdate Driver Softwareʺ. (It is added to ʺOther deviceʺ in the Device manager, however, automatically deleted after the driver is installed.)
