    QPrinter is enough to work with any printer (including POS), if the printer has a driver insatlled in the machine (either linux / windows)

    If you want to print using PDL then QPrinter may not be an ideal option

    Epson has strong support for Linux; pretty much all of their printers have Linux drivers available.

    You can do your own research into what they offer, if anything. Try here.
