java-programmer, Help with JavaPOS please Hi there,
I have made an application that uses a POS printer device to print out a
receipt,
but there are genereal problems printing out .....
sometimes it prints out sometimes it doesn't (??) this is not the most major
of the
problems. The most major problem has to do with setting the style and the
layout of the printing.

After I have opened my device, claimed it everything should be ready or ??
I have checked to see what the method getFontTypefaceList()); returns
and my guess was that these numbers return different numbers that are
representatives for character sets eg fonts!!!! So I take one of these
numbers to try it out, put a number inside the method setCharacterSet(850);
yes .. 850 for instamce ... then I restart my application to see if the
output
is different, but it is not. I wonder why.

and yes I have tried several other methods in the POSprinter class and
by means of the POSprinterConst class too.

Does anyone have any experience with this or am I left to keep
experimenting?

I also need to find out how to set Linebreaking, linedistancing etc etc bold
italic and so on.

Regards
Carl
