OPOS vs Windows drivers Philip Gass 01-09-2007

I am currently using OPOS drivers for printing, but it seems to be very
limiting when it comes to chaning reciept apearance, its using an ugly
generic font for printing, and i cant seem to change it using the settings
in SO. All the true/faulse values seem to work ok, but the font size and
type etc wont change.

Would i be better chanign over to windows drivers? What are the pros and
cons of each??
