I only added <J00> {DEPARTMENT} to header to see Department names on receipt but it also printed  [UNDEFINED] , what ami doing wrong , department name is very basic elemnt and it should be printed fine , right ?

Your printer works on STAR emulation mode. You should choose EPSON emulation mode in order to make it work.
