The StarPRNT SDK Sample is a precompiled Sample App built from the Star Micronics Mobile SDK available from "Star Global Support Site". Here, you will also find the source code for this App, as well as full programming information for the range of Star POS printers. This sample demonstrates all of the available features of the printers and the SDK itself, from connection to receipt generation. It is also a useful tool to diagnose connectivity and printing issues allowing you to directly connect the printer to the mobile device independent from the functions of the POS application. The sample will print in multiple languages and allow control of both the printer and connected, supported peripherals. The Star Micronics SDK makes it easy for the software developer to build on the range of functions included as standard, as well as the sample receipt templates.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: StarPRNT SDK at none against Receipt Star Printer's 1. StarPRNT SDK also leads on iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.0). Receipt Star Printer's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
