Printing

Hi,

I'm supposed to come up with receipt printing program similar tothose receipt printing you typically see in a supermarket. Whena new item is added, one more line is added to the printoutuntil the transaction is complete. Apparently, it is a rollingpaper too (the page height can't be determined). Does anyonehave a similiar solution or direct me some resources that I canstudy, please!! Thanks!

Hi,

Just write the raw data to the serial port, I do something similar with a
Symbol printer, if it's a rolling paper you may have two escenarios,
1- To cut the papel you have to send an especial command
2- You do nothing, just print a couple of white lines to move forward the
printed part

You should take a look at the printer documentation

Also take a look at this url I had around

cheers,
