The Star Micronics Virtual Port Emulator Device (TSP100U) driver is a software solution that allows your Star TSP100U receipt printer to function correctly with your computer. The TSP100U is a USB thermal receipt printer, and the Virtual Port Emulator (VPE) driver enables it to be recognized by your computer as if it were connected through a virtual COM port, which is useful for specific printing applications or environments where USB ports are treated as serial (COM) ports.
This driver is crucial for making the printer work with certain software that requires serial communication for printing, and is especially used for point-of-sale (POS) systems or custom applications where the printer isn't directly recognized as a USB device.
