Have you defined a character set in driver?

Also make sure you select the correct / matching character set in SambaPOS Printer settings

@markjw, do you know how slow T20II printing in HTML (graphic mode) compare to TM88 III or IV. I know V is fast.

5

T20II can print 200mm/sec. which is same as TM88III.

TM88V is up to 300 mm/sec, TM88VI is up to 350 mm/sec.

Those are the technical specs of the printers. Printing HTML mode on any thermal printer will be slower compared to ESC/POS mode but the faster the specified print speed, the faster it will be and you will still see improvement in any graphics modes.

I would say most printers these days is 250mm/sec or up. 300mm/sec or higher is considered fast and newer printers print this speed or higher.

Yes, i have defined it as following:
It leaves a space instead of Charcters öéäü

That screens not driver that’s samba.
Check for options in print driver in Windows.

Also 857 is Turkish Character set. You can try 858.

For the full list.
