Need epson tm-c600 driver/software
« on: September 13, 2011, 04:22:16 PM »
My computer tech had set it up before, however due to a new OS I no longer have working software/drivers. I'm not too technically inclined, any help would be appreciated and willing to pay $25 just for someone finding a working driver/software. New OS is Windows 7, but open to any windows OS if it will work.

Thanks!

Please don't post the same question more than once. I deleted the duplicate. Also, while well intentioned your offer of paying for assistance is insulting. We all volunteer our time here and are happy to do so.

Last, I deleted your email address from your post. NEVER post your email address on a public forum. There are bots that scour forums for email addresses and sell them to spammers.

Now for your question. Have you looked here: http://content.epson.de/en/rsd/service/index.1022.htm ? It's possible there are no W7 drivers available if you can't find them.

    It would appear that the Epson TM series printers are getting a bit long in the tooth. I have located the manual for the TM series (with emphasis on the driver installation and there are no refferences for drivers after Win 2000. Here it is and you can read it.
    How old is this printer? I note your query on another forum which seems also to have been unsuccessful.truenorth

    As there are a number of these printers STILL popping up on ebay and such-like, I thought I would resurrect this post.

    The TM-C600 seems, though I can't be 100% sure, to be a special order machine, manufactured by Epson exclusively for Catalina Marketing.  That is the reason we're not finding drivers for it - because they were never made publically available, as the printers were never designed to be used outside of a Catalina provided environment.

    Epson TM printers are, generally, still current - and you'll find the majority of receipts you have printed from whichever stores you visit are coming from Epson TM printers - it's just their EPOS range, so usually you have to have some specialist or in-depth knowledge of these kinds of systems to get them to do something.  More often than not, you don't use a driver, you communicated directly with the printer using codes sent down a physical serial link... remember THOSE days!?? LOL

    Anyway - I'm working on getting a driver package working for the TM-C600 - and I've had some success - I have printing working, in colour, however more advanced features, like cutting, ink monitoring etc, do not yet work.  If anyone is still interested, post back in here, and I'll keep the thread updated with progress.

      I just now noticed that in spite of saying i was including a site for the manual of your printer i forgot to do so. I have tried to retrace my search to again locate the manual but i have not thus far found it again. However i did find an Epson site that purports to provide the drivers/manuals/software for the printer. I am not absolutely certain that it is your printer as they refer to it as a "workforce" model. Anyway sorry about the earlier ommision and hope this site may be of assistance
