Chris,

I filled up a comment in the issue for you. Please on, such case feel free to 
write a comment in Jira issue. Eventually it's posted
on this ML and it's much more easy to track down.

BTW I hope to do some work on POS as soon as I will finish my current contract. 
But I have no visibility yet ("the client" dont know
himself when the project will stop, more and more specific features are added, 
etc.). Though some time to time, in my "free time", I
work on some OFBiz tasks, POS included...

Thanks

Jacques

> 1.)  Color printing.  Many (most?) modern thermal printers can print in

> even if you only print in one color.
> 2.)  Logo / Graphic printing.  JavaPos allows this, but I'm not sure my Star

> 3.)  Font uploading.  Standard fonts look pretty rough, IMHO.  I believe
> JavaPos allows uploading a new font to the printer.
> 4.)  Printing of item level configuration.  This would be another loop in
> Receipt.java.
