Raw message 

Sorry guys, 

There were two other images. 
One was just a picture of the printer and the other of the label on the bottom.

But instead, I think this is the exact same model. 
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/80mm-High-Speed-POS-Thermal-Receipt-Printer-Auto-Cutter-Serial-Port-USB-Ethernet-/291494421575?hash=item43de6be447 <http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/80mm-High-Speed-POS-Thermal-Receipt-Printer-Auto-Cutter-Serial-Port-USB-Ethernet-/291494421575?hash=item43de6be447>

I bought ours on eBay for $149 back in May. 
We also have a lot of real epson printers (way more expensive) but they were all Parallel port and the PC used for Grase tickets did not have a parallel port. 
so I bought this one instead - we needed extras anyway. 

It does work reasonably well - The only annoying thing is that chrome just uses the default printer setting.
So, every time that they want to print a ticket hey have to change the printer from the copier to the receipt printer.


I hope that is helpful.
