Each to their own. I think I'd tackle this sort of solution (based on the skills I have) with a Raspberry Pi and a POS receipt printer: Connect Pi to Printer. Have web-server (in lang-of-choice) listening for as POST payloads. spool the payload to a file. print file. Depending on use case, parse the payload to insert required ESC/POS codes (which seem to be a subset of the old Epson Printer ESC codes) for formatting. Tbh... there's probably a way to have Linux present it as a network printer so that other OSs can print directly to the printer.
