Device checklist

In order to set up your receipt printer with your Windows PC, you'll first need to make sure you have all the peripherals needed.

Cables

You will need the provided power cable and USB cable for the printer

Receipt rolls

Make sure you have 80mm receipt rolls. To load your receipt roll open the latch on the top right of the printer, place the roll inside, and pull some of the paper through before closing the lid.

Cash drawer (optional)

You may also wish to set up your cash drawer at the same time. To do this you'll need a specialized cash drawer cable. This is similar looking to an ethernet cable but is smaller on one end.

Downloading and Installing the Epson driver

2. Select Windows Printer Driver and next to the TM-T82II Driver, click Download page.

3. Scroll to the bottom and select the Accept checkbox, then click Download...
