Hi tsair:

Does this hardware have a Windows printer driver or an ActiveX control you
can use? You might want to contact the hardware manufacturer and find out.

I hope this helps.

Hi,

You might want to investigate the use of OPOS (OLE for Retail POS). This
technology removes the device specific coding from your program and allows
your program to operate any hardware manufacturer that supplies OPOS
compliant devices (Citizen now does).

This is OPOS code
with ThisForm.CashDrawer1 && ActiveX control for cashdrawer
if .DeviceEnabled && A cash drawer is installed and
operating
.opendrawer && Kick the draw open (don't care
what printer, com port or parallel or usb or ehternet)
if .capstatus and posparam.monitordraw && If device can report
status
ThisForm.CDOpen.visible = .t. && Display a flag to
remind the operator to close the drawer
lDrawerOpened = .t. && Public flag to
disable all code while the draw is open
thisform.drawkicked = .t. && Local flag used
in the status update event
endif
endif
endwith

or this using mscomm and limited to only com ports and coded specifically
for each brand/model ??????
with thisform.MSComm1
.CommPort = 1
.Settings = "9600,n,8,1"
.PortOpen = .t.
.Output = chr(27)+chr(112)+chr(0)+chr(25)+chr(250) && What the F does
all this mean?
.PortOpen = .f.
endwith

It took me about two days to come to grips with OPOS dor docket printers,
cashdrawers and customer display poles. The OPOS controls address some 20
plus different POS type devices like Coin changers, scales, barcode readers
(however we use wedge based barcode readers) and so on.

Start at www.monroecs.com to get the latest OPOS code. You would also find
OPOS drivers at the Citizen site, Epson does their own implementation and
companies like Fujitsu are also involved. Also it is all free.
