Library Receipt Printers - Free Advertising?

Printing promotions at the bottom of receipts is not a new idea, have you been to CVS lately? The receipts end up 3 feet long by the time all the coupons and ads print. Obviously that is probably wasteful in terms of Library-Land, but that doesn't mean you can't self-promote at the bottom of a reasonable receipt, in fact. In fact, we used to add "whitespace" to the bottom of our receipts so they were longer to stick out of books and go nicely in dvd cases.

Our library uses EPSON TM-T88V Printers. They come with auto-cut and logo-saving printing options, work with Windows 8, and aren't incredibly expensive. The utility on this page allows you to upload an image to print at the bottom of every receipt. Of course this one only works with EPSON but most POS printers have some sort of option for this.
