For the record, I came into a chep USB barcode scanner that works wonders. An
Inateck BCST-31 according to the label.
I also ran into a cheap chinesse ticket printer, a Terow. Sadly, it crashes the
kernel - looks like a bad kernel bug. It works well when it is not crashing.

That sounds cool.
I was considering a network printer, whit the POS here is not going to be
networked.
Out of curiosity, which printer it is that you are using?

So I would not need to deal with USB printers anymore, I got a thermal
printer with an ethernet port. I communicate with it by ESC/POS over
UDP to port 9100.

Thank you for the advice. I will search for those ones and see what I can find.
I still need to solve the printer issue. So far it looks like receipt printers
use very simple interfaces. Somebody engineered ppd files for Zjian printers
for Linux, but I don't know if the OpenBSD kernel would
+1 for Symbol here. Have used them in factory environments and I can’t
recall one ever failing.
If buying used, be sure you can get the documentation for it, as these are
often configurable (eg. continuous vs. triggered scanning) via scanning
special barcodes.

Hello,
I am considering to set a Point of Sale (POS) solution for a small
business. Given the chance I'd like to use OpenBSD for it. It is
supposed to be very basic and the software would be a web application
running in a remote server. No pole screen or cash drawer support is
required.

I have a working barcode scanner, Symbol Technologies LS2208, that
shows up in dmesg as:
uhidev4 at uhub3 port 6 configuration 1
