HI, All

Anyone trying to print on such devices ? What connection type is such bult-in printers ?
Inside only a test utility that can print the test page.
And no documentation at hands :(

And no documentation at hands :(
And we should GUESS what kind of POS-Hardware and Printer you are using?
We should search for any documentation regardless which Printer is used?

1. Give us more details
2. Search for the device documentation and download it.
3. Search for the device SDK Code and documentation and download them.

After you have done this you should have much more details to share and to ask.

Sure, i googled, but no docs for "Impressora Q8" model is found.
It's Android 8.1 device with Printer:58mm Thermal Receipt Printer, Printing Speed 50mm/S, Work Life 50 Km.

Manifest of the test bult-in utility is ... nothing interesting:

</application>
</manifest>

I used alps q2 pos device where printer is connected as normal Bluetooth mode with esc/p commands and mypos carbon with its own sdk connection to printer. I used some standalone big pos device (with extra customer display) where printer was connected via usb and other type with serial connection.
I guess yours will be Bluetooth.
