Goog says the user manual is at:

http://www.iposltd.com/download/PRP-085III.pdf

That says that the printer is compatible with Epson’s ESC/POS command
language.
It also describes the commands.

To use the printer with cups, you can install it as a raw printer and send
text with escape codes, or you can write/find an filter to convert cups
raster to esc/pos.

ESC/POS is simple, so a filter to convert shouldn’t take much effort.

That manual doesn’t mention much about the ethernet support.  It may
support port 9100 and/or it may support the lpd protocol.  Cups can send to
either of those.  But you still need an esc/pos filter to send bitmaps, or
to send raw.

(I’d expect point-of-sale software to support esc/pos.  If that is how
you use it, and if your software does, then a raw queue is a perfect
solution.)
