Limitations

The Epson TM T88IV 101 is limited to thermal receipt printing and does not support color or non-thermal paper types. It may require drivers or software updates for compatibility with newer operating systems. The device lacks support for wireless connectivity, limiting use in modern wireless POS setups. Its physical design, although compact, is somewhat bulkier compared to newer models with sleeker profiles. Paper width is restricted to 80 mm, which may not suit all business needs. The auto-cutter, while improving efficiency, can occasionally experience mechanical wear requiring maintenance.
