Sarah, brilliant! It is indeed a receipt printer. So do you maybe know how
to do the next part? In order to activate the paper cutter on it, one
is supposed to do this to trigger the auto cutter drive:
<ESC> “d” “0” or <ESC> “d” <0>
(1B)H (64)H (30)H or (1B)H (64)H (00)H
<ESC> “d” “1” or <ESC> “d” <1>
(1B)H (64)H (31)H or (1B)H (64)H (01)H
So do you have to convert some or all of this to ascii, and then
put that into the text? And if so how?
You can do
put baseConvert("1B", 16, 10) into t
put numtochar(t) after theOutputString
for each character.
Note that what you have above is actually the same line repeated , i.e.
<ESC> “d” “0” or <ESC> “d” <0>
is the same as
(1B)H (64)H (30)H or (1B)H (64)H (00)H
and
<ESC> “d” “1” or <ESC> “d” <1>
is the same as
(1B)H (64)H (31)H or (1B)H (64)H (01)H
So (what I'd do :-) ...
put numtochar(27) into cESC -- ESC is ascii 27 is 1B(H)
then
put cESC & "d0" after theOutputString
or
put cESC & "d1" after theOutputString
-- Alex.
