Sticker Thermal Printer

[ilan]

hi guys

i just received my Thermal Sticker Printer and i am really impressed. it is doing the job very well and the best thing is that it does not needs INK ? although i need special paper but it is not to expensive. anyway, i love the app that is comming with the printer and i was asking myself if we can make our own app. what do i need to connect to such a printer and send data to be print?
is there any lib (android, ios) that we have in b4x?

does anyone did something like this?

actually, i have no idea if there is a SDK for this printer. i found some SDK's for thermal printers but i don't know if they will be compatible with this one.

can this be helpful?

How use thermal printer(USB/Ethernet) on android, without using vendor SDK,?

I already implemented EPSON SDK(for Bluetooth) and working fine, but not Working on other printers, is there is any general way to accomplish it. what is ESC command, How it works?,

Looks good!

Does it do address labels (vertical text)?

I see many similar t02 label printing apps on Google Play. Are most compatible with this printer?

you can rotate the text inside the app so i guess the answer is yes but i have not tried it. i will try and let you know.

i don't know, i guess they are but what i use is this app and it is really awesome:

Thanks. I got one on Amazon (US), www.amazon.com/dp/B095S9K5JZ

I will be playing with it. The library mentioned earlier in the thread also.

It's a couple days later, I received it, and I am very impressed.
The device pairs easily in the app using a QR code you can print out from the printer.
Paper rolls look to be about $12 USD for three roles of white stick-on label paper, 3.5 m length each.
The text output is crisp and the app seems very complete. It took me about five minutes to figure out how to print a rotated text address label.
The app has a way of importing documents. I can see where that would be very useful for certain applications.
