    To use Star TSP100 Printer in Windows XP Embedded,
    please import these components to <Component Database Manager>.

    For example, if you want to use the "Virtual Serial Port" function;
      1. Import the "PrinterDriver" component and the "Virtual Serial Port"
         Component to <Component Database Manager>.
      2. Open <Target Designer> and add the "Virtual Serial Port" Component
         to your OS image.
         (the "PrinterDriver" Component is added automatically.)
      3. After the FBA(First Boot Agent) completes, connect the TSP100 Printer
         to the Computer.
         At this point, you can use TSP100 Printer and 
         the Virtual Serial Port Emulator.

    5. Configuration
  ======================================

     The Printer Driver, ESC/POS, and Value Added component can be 
     pre-configured by following this procedure:

         1. Use the User Interface to create the following configuration files:
           <Copy Files>
           clients.xml        -----  Printer Driver settings
           default config.xml -----  Star Line mode print settings
           escpos.xml         -----  ESC/POS mode print settings

         2. Copy these to the embedded machine before connecting the printer.
           <Destination folder>
           %Program Files%\StarMicronics\TSP100\Configuration\

How To Update Drivers Manually

After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.

  • Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).

  • If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.

  • Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.

  • Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.

  • Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.

  • From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.

  • Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.

Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
