What’s a cheap but ok thermal printer? The brand mentioned in this repo?

I wanted to setup https://www.colonnes.com but their recommendations were quite expensive.

I got an Epson TM-T88IIIP for about 40 bucks used. The whole line seems to have decent Linux drivers

I recently got the YHD-8390 on Aliexpress for around 100$, works pretty well. Connects by Ethernet, USB and Wifi. Having plenty of fun with it.

For labels I use Phomomo. Quite cheap. I wrote some python code to drive it.
