This receipt printer is an Epson TM-T88IV. It has a Centronics Parallel port at the back. We use a Parallel-to-USB cable with it.
The printed is connected to a Raspberry Pi 4 (hostname nixos-media-box), both located inside the member project rack. The Pi can be found behind or next to the receipt printer.
The Pi runs receiptprinterd at HTTP path /receipt.
