1. Install the JavaSE which version you like. I use jdk1.5.0_09;
2. Then installed the "Epson JavaPOS ADK 1.82" (or 1.81, 1.80, any version suppor jpos18-control; and copy the "epsonJposService182.jar, epsonJposServiceCommon.jar" to /ofbiz/applications/pos/lib;
   1. NOTE:
      1. Epson JavaPOS program will also install the Jars in JavaHome/jre/lib/ext so if you get conficts look there and resolve the driver versions. like jpos111.jar and in the ofbiz like you might have jpos182.jar
      2. if you are running more than one instance of ofbiz then it is best to have the drivers just in Ofbiz, so remove the SetupPOS.properties as well
3. Now modified the jpos.xml file, under /ofbiz/applications/pos/config; I post a sample here:
   It uses a TM-U220D on COM1 port, please remember to keep the jpos182 or 180 same as the file you using under ./pos/lib;

4. Install Java CommAPI 2.0: copy comm.jar and javax.comm.properties to j2se or j2re 's /lib folder. Copy the win32com.dll to /windows/system32 (see Attachments)
5. Modifiy the pos-containers.xml, which under /framework/base/config:
   to make the
   <property name="Receipt" value="TM-U220D" />
   value same as you defined in jpos.xml file.
