Hello everybody; I had several paper-size problems to print from a Kubuntu 14.04 to a BIXOLON SRP-350II, and made a ShellScript to catch a printed PDF and remake the ticket with LaTeX -> PostScript -> Send again to CUPS. Once this seemed solved, I see that LemonPOS 0.9.2 from Ubuntu repositories (the only stable and functional) isn't practicable in a 1024x768 screen (products images and grid don't adapt to window size). Finally, I've learnt sufficient from LemonPOS leave this software and develop a new project: webPOS. I'ts PHP+MySQL based, fits in any screen (I hope hand devices too), doesn't require a concrete desktop, really fast, and tickets are rendered to PostScript. I'm making first testing in a small restaurant.
