I can't help you much with the technical aspects of it, but I worked for a retailer in the early 2000s that ran off the IBM ePOS systems. When I was there it was all running small LCD non-touch displays and OS/2, gradually changing to a Windows XP with what I think was a J2EE application to perform the actual ePOS role, with an IR touchscreen.

Those SureMarks with the cheque endorsement bring back memories. When we moved to XP we switched to new printers and stopped accepting cheque payment. They seemed pretty reliable but maybe we just maintained them well.
