We implemented a POS system on openSUSE about 9 months ago. The only POS printer that we could find that already have drivers is the Fenix Imvico SM2000. http://www.feniximvico.com/catalogo.php?ididioma=EN&id_pro=7&id_cat=16 The driver for CUPS is available for download. http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=FenixImvico-SM_2000 Almost any barcode scanner will work as it acts as a keyboard. We used the Metrologic Eclipse M5145 http://www.metrologic.com/corporate/products/pos/ms5145.htm We also used a bar scanner from DigiPos: http://www.digipos-systems.co.za/sd303more.asp We used an Aqsonic cash drawer, but any cash drawer should work, they plug into the printer and the printer open the cash drawer. We used the development driver of the SM2000 and it could not yet open the drawer, but the production version should be able to do it. If you want to write your application in Java, or maybe just write an integration portion in Java, you can look at JavaPOS. http://www.javapos.com/ This supports a number of POS hardware. -- Andre Truter | Software Consultant | Registered Linux user #185282 Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.trusoft.co.za ~ A dinosaur is a salamander designed to Mil Spec ~ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
