POS Direct Print + Cash Drawer: No IoT Box Needed

This module enhances the Odoo Point of Sale (POS) application by enabling direct printing to any modern ticket printer. It provides a seamless integration for businesses that aim to streamline their POS printing processes without the need for additional IoT hardware.

Compatible with non ESCPOS printers, including locally connected printers (USB, serial, etc.), not limited to network printers.

Key Features
  • Direct Printing with jIotBox: Integrates with jIotBox, bypassing the need for the IoT Box and enabling direct printing from Odoo POS to your bill printers. This ensures faster, more reliable receipt printing and supports a wide range of printer models.
  • Opening Cash Drawer: The cash drawer will open both when the "Open Cashbox" button is pressed in the POS interface and automatically when an order is validated.

Driver Installation Notice

It's crucial to ensure that the required drivers are correctly installed for optimal performance. Without the proper drivers, your printers may not function as expected, leading to errors and disruptions in your order management process.

Before using this module, double-check that all printer drivers are installed and up to date. Proper driver installation helps prevent compatibility issues and ensures seamless printing from Odoo POS to your bill printers.

Windows Specific Configuration for SSL

To ensure a smooth installation and operation of the jIotBox, please follow these steps before launching the application:

  1. Run the provided executeAsAdmin.bat file as Administrator to automatically set up necessary components like Chocolatey and mkcert on your system.
  2. Do not close the window until the script confirms that the installation has completed.
  3. It will only run the first time, then you can open the jar directly.

After completing these steps, your system will be ready to handle secure direct printing tasks via jIotBox, integrated seamlessly with your Odoo POS system.

Initial Setup Instructions

Ensuring secure communication for jIotBox on Windows involves several critical steps, from installing package managers to setting up SSL certificates. Here's a detailed walkthrough:

  • Go to the jIotBox settings.
  • Look for the "Enable SSL" option within the settings.
  • Check the box to activate SSL.
  • Find the section to configure the IP address ("Local Ip").
  • Enter the local server IP address.
  • Save the changes.
(Without SSL)

If you encounter any CORS errors, we recommend using Mozilla Firefox and disabling CORS. CORS errors might occur when accessing certain resources due to security restrictions enforced by the browser.

To disable strict origin policy in Firefox, type about:config in the address bar. Search for security.fileuri.strict_origin_policy and set it to false. This adjustment can help when working with local files and testing across different origins.

To disable mixed content warnings in Firefox, enter about:config into the address bar and search for security.mixed_content.block_active_content. Set it to false. This change allows loading of mixed active content, which can help during development and testing.

Unfortunately, we can't disable these security features in Chrome or Safari using similar methods. In these cases, it's necessary to use other approaches to resolve the issue, such as ensuring all resources are served over HTTPS or using a development proxy that handles HTTPS.
