POS Printing
-
I have a code to print text which prints perfectly when i print through regular printer but when i use the same code to print through a point of sale printer it doesnot print at all.It seems like it has been in the continuous loop. I am using e.Graphics.DrawString(.......) to print. Does anybody has some idea in this topic? Can we use e.graphics.drawstring method to print through the point of sale application by changing some settings or something...???

It has nothing to do with the application itself, rather it would depend entirely on the printer you're using, how it's connected to the machine, are there drivers installed for it, and how you want to print. Somehow, of all the POS printers I've seen used, very seldom would you go through the Windows printing system to print a page on one of these things. Normally, I've just seen direct printing to either a COM port or LPT port the printer is connected to. You can even printer to a USB based printer if it's drivers expose it on a COM port to applications.
