ES-Network Printing System
ENPS Short for ES Network Printing System is the integrated, server-side based printing system for all ES/S Systems. It comes with all ES/S-B distributions and supports a wide range of printers without third party printer drivers, support of the printer does not necessarily depend on the operating system.
Normally, all ENPS printers are network printers, or at least, directly writable by ENPS as ENPS itself issues raw printer payloads.
Technical
ENPS divides printers in two types, Graphical and native. Support is upon printer control language, the data supplied to be printed, the ENPS drivers and the host system itself.
ENPS can print using operating system supplied drivers, it's own graphical and/or native drivers. For very fast printings, in high-throughput ticketing applications native drivers are preferred.
Supported native printer languages (drivers), referred as OutputFormats
- ESC/POS (POS Printers)
- DieboldNixdorf HP (Pass Book Printing)
- ESC/P, ESC/P2 (High speed impact printing)
- IPL Honeywell(Thermal/-Transfer Printing)
- ZPL Zebra(Thermal/-Transfer Printing)
- TCPL TOSHIBA-TEC
- DPP Honeywell
- PCL5, PCL6
- PostScript

Support varies by driver, version and printer. Some devices only support subsets of a specification or standard.
