If it emulates that Epson I doubt if you'll have too many problems (for plain text, dollar signs, spaces and line-feeds, at least; I don't warranty this advice if you need to do graphics or fancy little glyphs or wingdings). |

You're right that you might have to change some jumpers, but they shouldn't be hard to find or access. Ask the seller - it'll probably be documented in the manual. |
