Since your app seems to require the existence of a certain printer, it implies that this isn't a traditional web-app and that you could "install" something on the desktop that acts as a socket server or something like that.

Hello, Has anyone figured out the best way to speak to an external device (such as a thermal printer that speaks in a propietary language, or a scanner)? I've seen some solutions posted that require ActiveX, etc, but I'm HOPING that someone here might know how to do it directly (using JS?). TIA Steve DaVita Inc.
