Sometimes, you may not be able to connect all devices to the same local network. With the EPSON TM-T88VI-iHub model, you can set up a print server to solve this issue.
For example, if you have a restaurant and a beach bar, this print server will allow orders from the beach bar to reach the restaurant's kitchen or till.
