Re: Awkward Printing?

Alright, so here's some great news. I got this printer to work finally after tweaking in Aprint. Which leads me to my next question, can we implement a feature on Aprint to allow decimal based font sizes? I tried sizes 5 and 6. For some odd reason before they wouldn't take... but now they do *shrug*...

Re: Awkward Printing?

It's not that I'm hell bent on getting it to work, it's just that it's almost working. Your software is the best free POS available. If I KNEW how to program this printer, I would do it, I'm not at the computer with the printer at the moment. I'm not even against sending it back. I just want a cheap...

Re: Awkward Printing?

As promised, here are the receipts from pos MAID using both Image and Soft Text (the one with the barcode is the Image mode).

Re: Awkward Printing?

I get off of work in about an hour. When I go home I'll print a receipt with pos MAID, and take a pic (hopefully I can find my cable for my REAL camera and not my crappy phone camera). The manual describes how to program different character sizes, but I have no freaking clue how to program this thin...

Re: Awkward Printing?

It is time to look in your printer's manual. Are there DIP switches that can be reset to configure the printer to print 40 CPL? Is there a control code that can be sent to the printer to reconfigure it to 40 CPL? No DIP switches in the manual, so I ripped it apart anyway. No DIP switches in the uni...

Re: Awkward Printing?

And this is Print as Soft Text.

Sorry for the horrible quality on both.

Re: Awkward Printing?

I just got a fresh roll of paper from the guy that I'm setting this up for. I'll post pics of the receipts in a few.

Re: Awkward Printing?

I've tried Courier 10 pt. (and 8 pt.)

Even the Windows test print is all kinds of crazy.

Re: Awkward Printing?

It's a USB printer for one, so printing to LPT1 is a no-go. It looks NOTHING like yours, using the Soft Font imagine the margin being set after description, price is on a separate line, indented. If I print using the Print as Image, it looks like that, but it doesn't shrink to fit. It's a 58MM width...

Re: Awkward Printing?

I'll try to explain this is clear as possible. The printer has an option for two settings. Print as Image and Print as Soft Text. Printing as Image, no matter what application, prints, but the right margin is truncated, and doesn't even act like a margin exists. Printing as Soft Text, however, print...

Awkward Printing?

Alright, so I got that cheap receipt printer, it works great, but DHPOS is broken down kind of odd. Other POS apps print just fine and line up fine. Any idea how to fix this?

Re: Receipt Printer

I ordered it from Amazon, it'll be here tomorrow because it's shipping as one package from Amazon itself.

Re: Receipt Printer

Alright, so I ordered the cheap receipt printer and a decent cash drawer (Wasp WCD-5000). They both come in tomorrow (Amazon Prime FTW!) and I'll post my results. Or ask for help... one of the two... LOL
