I have a w4 workstation and a new EPSON U220 printer with a USB interface. The w4 is running Windows CE. When I plug the printer in, it is asking for a driver but the driver can't install because there is not enough disk space. I don't really know how to solve this problem. Is it possible to use a USB printer on w4?

 
I dont believe so. USB on other POS systems that are succcessful, use WINDOWS printers. Micros sets the printers in software. In Windows it created a virtual COM port that has no baud rate. For those other POS systems we use the Epson setup ADT210Em which is for all the Epson-TM series of printers. This creates the virtual port or port for the printer.

As stated earlier, Micros does not use Windows printers, I havent seen how it can be done (as its in their software) using IP, COM, Baud settings.
