Hello everyone: today I received this USB thermal printer ... it is missing the 12v 3amper transformer. I am already fixing the lack of this component .. Has anyone worked with this printer on ticket printing? I need to modify my printing routines that I have to be able to use it in a new P.O.S terminal Thanks in advance

I used something similar a long time ago
working with it is like with epson printers, sending ESC sequences
probably known from before

I'm using it from time to time.
You can use windows printer driver, in this case it works like other printers.
These thermal printers often use ESC/P or ESC/P2 control codes, so you can print your text to file and then send it to printer

I use Star TSP100 or any STAR is the same. Must install drivers. Then use as normal text print. Lines are 4 per print and I always add font and size.
The width of 4 inch paper seems to be 54 spaces at size 8
This is a rough starting example to go from.

Code: Select all

Select printer
Pl= 5
Start PrintDoc
Start PrintPage
@ pl, 27-len(alltrim(companyname)/2) Print companyname font "Arial" SIZE 8
@ pl+4 , 1 Print "Item                                       Description                      Price"  font "Arial" Size 7
@ pl+8 , 1 Print Line to pl+8,80 penwidth .01
pl := 12
gotop
Do while ! eof()
@ pl,1 print ITEM font "Arial" size 6
@pl,22 print DESC font "arial" Size 6
@pl,70 print val(str(PRICE,10,2)) font "Arial" Size 7
pl := pl+4
skip
loop
Enddo
End PrintPage
End PrintDoc
