D Declan Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Apr 24, 2022 #1 I am using the jFX8Print Library Version 0.7 I am using a Xprinter XP-365B Thermal Label printer. My Label size is 39mm(W) X 18mm(H) On my Windows 10 PC, the Xprinter is set as "Default Printer" The Printer Preferences has only 1 paper size set - 39mm(W) X 18mm(H) The printer works great and I have tested it with the Xprinter Test software. My B4J app has a Panel "pnlQR" which has 2 X imageviews and 2 X labels. The imageviews display the QR Barcodes, the labels display a text. I use: B4X: Dim m As Image = MainForm.RootPane.Snapshot Dim cv As Canvas cv.Initialize("") cv.DrawImage(m,0,0,100,60) to take a snapshot of pnlQR. I must then send this to the printer with btnPrint_Click (No Dialogs): B4X: Private Sub btnPrint_Click Dim m As Image = MainForm.RootPane.Snapshot Dim cv As Canvas cv.Initialize("") cv.DrawImage(m,0,0,100,60) Dim P As Printer = Printer_Static.GetDefaultPrinter ' Dim P As Printer = GetPrinter("Xprinter XP-365B") Dim PA As PrinterAttributes = P.GetPrinterAttributes Dim p_paper As Paper = PA.GetDefaultPaper Dim PJ As PrinterJob = PrinterJob_Static.CreatePrinterJob2(p) pl = p.CreatePageLayout(p_paper,"PORTRAIT",1,1,1,1) ' You should change orientation and margin If Neccessary PJ.GetJobSettings.SetCopies(1) PJ.GetJobSettings.SetPageLayout(pl) PJ.GetJobSettings.SetPrintQuality("HIGH") PJ.GetJobSettings.SetJobName("QR_PRINTER") Dim PJ As PrinterJob = PrinterJob_Static.CreatePrinterJob2(P) PJ.PrintPage(pnlQR) PJ.EndJob End Sub However, I have the following error: B4X: Waiting for debugger to connect...

MicroDrie Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User May 11, 2022 #5 A litle late but your XP-365B printer spec is: high-capacity for paper, large diameter 82 mm can be put on label Click to expand... And your working paper size is: QR-39X18 (39.0 mm x 18.0 mm Click to expand... Then total margin = 82 - 39 mm = 42 mm. Try to fool the printer by leaving a Left and Right Margin of say 2 mm for the right half that is not to be printed, leaving for the right side 82 mm physical width - (2 mm + 37 mm) = 39 mm label print space = 43 mm for the Right Margin to be copied. This should leave a 2mm margin on both sides of the label. When you align the label in the middle in the printer, you must use 43/2 as margin on both sides. Upvote 0

MicroDrie Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User May 12, 2022 #7 Thats fine that the the label is loaded on the left side of the printer. Then you can use my program code which suppose to prints its own nothing outside the label width. I hope it works. I'm curious. Upvote 0

K keirS Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User May 12, 2022 #10 Not sure why you are trying to use the Windows driver. It's a label printer so has the ability to print QRCodes inbuilt. Why not just send the commands to printer to print the QR Codes? Your printer emulates TSPL which is the TSC / Kroy Printer language and that has a QRCODE command, You can find the language manual here: https://fs.tscprinters.com/system/files/tspl_tspl2_programming_2022_4_11.pdf Upvote 0

K keirS Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User May 13, 2022 #15 Easiest way is to use the Serial port on the printer instead of the USB port and use the serial library. If you only have a USB port on the printer then it's slightly more tricky but usually doable. Upvote 0

K keirS Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User May 13, 2022 #19 Ok you have COM ports which makes it easier. Add a new printer and select "Add a local printer or network printer with local settings" Select "Use an existing port" Select "USB001" from the dropdown Select "Generic" from the list of manufacturers and "Generic / Text Only" from the list of printers You can name the printer whatever you like Share the printer Next step is to redirect one of your COM ports to your label printer. Run a command prompt and use a command like this Code: NET USE COM1: //MY_PC_NAME/MY_SHARED_PRINTER_NAME /persistent:yes MY_PC_NAME = The name of your computer MY_SHARED_PRINTER_NAME = The name of the printer share you have created. You can use the jSerial library to write the label to the com port and that will write it to the printer. Upvote 0
