a model for supporting different printers is implemented.

The `capabilities`-feature allows this library to know
|
||||
which features are supported.
|
||||
If no further information is specified, python-escpos will
|
||||
try to automatically use features based on the supplied information.
|
||||
|
||||
In order to use the `capabilities`-database, the printer instance
|
||||
simply has to be created with the parameter `profile` set to the
|
||||
relevant identifier.
|
||||
The identifier can be found in :ref:`available-profiles`.
|

|

This documentation describes the profiles in the database file that
|

is bundled with this release.
|

If another configuration is to be used, this chapter can be followed

for information on how to sideload another `capabilities`-database:
