A Node.js ESC/POS printer driver library for controlling thermal receipt printers. It provides a printer API plus adapters for USB, network, Bluetooth, and serial port connections.

Use cases

  • print receipts from a node.js app to a thermal printer
  • print barcodes and QR codes on an ESC/POS printer
  • connect to a receipt printer over USB, network, bluetooth or serial
  • build a point-of-sale printing feature in javascript
  • format tables and text on a thermal receipt printer

When to choose

  • you need to drive ESC/POS thermal printers from Node.js
  • you want multiple transport adapters (USB, network, serial, bluetooth) in one ecosystem
  • you need barcode, QR code, and table printing support

When to avoid

  • you are not using Node.js or JavaScript
  • you need a non-ESC/POS printer protocol
  • you need a GUI printing solution rather than programmatic control
