Ensuring your Toshiba Point of Sale (POS) system operates smoothly is crucial for business efficiency. Having the correct and up-to-date Toshiba Printer Drivers is a fundamental part of this, guaranteeing seamless communication between your POS system and Toshiba printers. This page provides a comprehensive guide to downloading the necessary drivers and software for your Toshiba POS printers, including Mobile Printer SDKs, USB POS Diagnostics tools, and UPOS (Unified Point of Service) drivers.

USB POS Diagnostics Key
The USB POS Diagnostics package is a powerful tool designed to troubleshoot hardware issues on your POS systems. Beyond diagnostics, it also allows you to update firmware on POS I/O devices and configure settings for Toshiba 4610 and 6145 printers, such as logos, fonts, and messages.
Starting from version 14 (December 2022), firmware files are distributed separately to reduce the initial download size of the diagnostics package. If you need to update printer firmware, ensure you download the latest firmware file in addition to the diagnostics package.

UPOS (OPOS & JavaPOS) Drivers
Unified Point of Service (UPOS) drivers encompass both OPOS (OLE for POS) and JavaPOS (JPOS) drivers. These drivers are essential for supporting IBM and Toshiba POS-specific peripherals, including 2×20 displays and receipt printers, across various operating systems. Understanding the UPOS specification from the Object Management Group is highly recommended for users and business partners.
Toshiba offers a range of UPOS drivers tailored to different operating systems and hardware configurations:
OPOS & JavaPOS for Windows & Linux
These drivers are compatible with Windows and Linux operating systems. Note that JavaPOS requires a Java Virtual Machine (JVM), which users need to provide separately (e.g., Oracle, OpenJDK).
It’s recommended to consult the UPOS Knowledgebase for detailed information, including guides on driver trace configuration and UPOS lifecycle information.
