#Lsusb module version serial#
Use Data::Dumper # Just to get dumps of status functions supported for Serial driverType. (Drop me a email if you are able to make it work in windows as I have not tested it out yet) use Printer::ESCPOS The Device::SerialPort claims to support this syntax. as deviceFilePath param when running this under windows. You may also use a Windows port name like 'COM1', 'COM2' etc. Use the Serial driverType for local printer connected on serial port(or a printer connected via a physical USB port in USB to Serial mode), check syslog(Usually under /var/log/syslog) for what device file was created for your printer when you connect it to your system(For plug and play printers). # This command takes care of read text buffers for the printer. $device->printer->print() # Dispatch the above commands from module buffer to the Printer. # merged data including control codes to module buffer. # These commands won't actually send anything to the printer but will store all the Network Printerįor Network Printers $port is 9100 in most cases but might differ depending on how you have configured your printer use Printer::ESCPOS
$device->printer->text("Right Justified\n") $device->printer->justification('right') $device->printer->text("Inverted Text\n") $device->printer->text("underline on\n") $device->printer->text("print area width reset\n") $device->printer->printAreaWidth() # Reset to default $device->printer->text("Print Area Width Modified\n")

$device->printer->qr("Don't Panic!") # Print a QR Code $device->printer->image($img) # Takes a GD image object My $img = newFromGif GD::Image('header.gif') || die "Error $!" The output gives us the vendorId 0x1504 and productId 0x0006įor USB Printers Printer::ESCPOS uses a default endPoint of 0x01 and a default timeout of 1000, however these can be specified manually in case your printer requires a different value. These can be retrieved using lsusb command lsusb USB driverType allows you to talk to your Printer using the vendorId and productId values for your printer. USB driverType is not supported prior to v0.012. As of v0.012 driverType Serial, Network, File and USB are all implemented in this module. Printer::ESCPOS provides four different types of printer connections to talk to a ESCPOS printer. If you are just starting up with POS RECEIPT Printers, you must first refer to Printer::ESCPOS::Manual to get started. Printer::ESCPOS - Interface for all thermal, dot-matrix and other receipt printers that support ESC-POS specification.
