The Star TSP100 is a unique receipt printer offering innovative functionality yet remaining one of the most cost effective POS printers on the market. The following two links will help you to download the driver and install the Star TSP100 Printer on Windows

The default mode for these printers is ‘Star Line Mode’. You need to change that to ‘ESC/POS Emulation’. It is necessary to enable this setting to ensure printouts are parsed accurately.

Having installed the driver and software for the TSP100, from the Start menu in Windows click in ‘All Programs’ > Star Micronics > TSP100 > Configuration Utility TSP100 as shown here.

When you double click on the utility, it may take several moments and seem to not be doing anything, but a small modal window appears. Highlight ESC/POS Mode and click OK.

After a moment the configuration utility will open. In the left hand navigation panel click on ‘Print Job Routing’.

A new screen will appear. Ensure that the box at Enable ESC/POS Routing is ticked as seen here. If the box is left unchecked, some applications may use ‘Star Line Mode parsing’, resulting in corrupted printing.
