Sorry to say but really I forgot to select the jpos.xml file from my ofbiz
application. I'm using EPSON TM-T88IV thermal printer in a serial interface.
Even now on my system, I'm not able to uninstall EPSON ADK 1.9.4 because it
is not giving me any option for uninstall. I think you are right because my
printer is not working even with CheckHealth utility.
If selecting jpos.xml from pos while the process if installation modifies
the appropriate jar file, then it should really work on a fresh
installation. I'll now try to configure the same application on a different
PC along with Printer and ADK 1.9.4, will you please put some light on the
correct path I should follow while this fresh configuration, I don't wanna
fail this time.
I'm so happy that now a torchbearer is with me.
Thanks Branden, thanx for all this.
