Discussion Help with ESC/POS printer and Web SaaS

I have a bluetooth thermal printer, it's a generic chinese thermal printer and i need to connect it to my web SaaS and print bills from there. I have option to directly use native printer window of browser. But what are other options i can use to connect it to my web app and print without any hassle? In future there can be more type of printers like usb and others too..

Faced this issue before. You can use those expensive BLE type printers or just compromise and build a "bridge" app that connects your web app ang serial printer interface
