使用 C# 将原始数据发送到 USB 点阵打印机



我正在开发一个简单的应用程序,该应用程序将读取一个文本文件,该文件将每 5 分钟用一些遥测数据覆盖一次。

我尝试使用Microsoft PrintDocument,但它不适用于这种情况,因为我需要控制打印机后台处理程序以每五行打印一行新行,但与前一行(连续)在同一页中。至少据我了解,这在 PrintDocument 类中是不可能的,因为您无法使用此类控制后台处理程序,并且每个打印命令都是一个作业,当它完成作业时,打印机会滚动页面以供用户使用。如果有人知道是否有办法每 5 分钟在同一页中继续打印,请分享信息或示例。

我正在使用Okidata Microline 186 USB点阵打印机,经过几次尝试与其他第三方库没有任何运气,我找到了RawPrintHelper.cs类,我正在尝试它,我能够将RAW数据发送到带有此类的打印机,但我有一些问题。课程在这里:

这是原始类代码:

Issues:
First problem was that it prints only using a file with this method "SendFileToPrinter":
public static bool SendFileToPrinter(string szPrinterName, string szFileName)
{
// Open the file.
FileStream fs = new FileStream(szFileName, FileMode.Open);
// Create a BinaryReader on the file.
BinaryReader br = new BinaryReader(fs);
// Dim an array of bytes big enough to hold the file's contents.
Byte[] bytes = new Byte[fs.Length];
bool bSuccess = false;
// Your unmanaged pointer.
IntPtr pUnmanagedBytes = new IntPtr(0);
int nLength;
nLength = Convert.ToInt32(fs.Length);
// Read the contents of the file into the array.
bytes = br.ReadBytes(nLength);
// Allocate some unmanaged memory for those bytes.
pUnmanagedBytes = Marshal.AllocCoTaskMem(nLength);
// Copy the managed byte array into the unmanaged array.
Marshal.Copy(bytes, 0, pUnmanagedBytes, nLength);
// Send the unmanaged bytes to the printer.
bSuccess = SendBytesToPrinter(szPrinterName, pUnmanagedBytes, nLength);

// Free the unmanaged memory that you allocated earlier.
Marshal.FreeCoTaskMem(pUnmanagedBytes);
return bSuccess;
}

但是,它不能完美地工作,打印机头停留在页面的右侧,当它再次尝试打印时,它会在页面右侧写入文本的开头,然后继续文本的其余部分。第二个选项是使用此方法接收要打印的字符串:

public static bool SendStringToPrinter(string szPrinterName, string szString)
{
IntPtr pBytes;
Int32 dwCount;
// How many characters are in the string?
// Fix from Nicholas Piasecki:
// dwCount = szString.Length;
dwCount = (szString.Length + 1) * Marshal.SystemMaxDBCSCharSize;
// Assume that the printer is expecting ANSI text, and then convert
// the string to ANSI text.
pBytes = Marshal.StringToCoTaskMemAnsi(szString);
// Send the converted ANSI string to the printer.
SendBytesToPrinter(szPrinterName, pBytes, dwCount);
Marshal.FreeCoTaskMem(pBytes);
return true;
} 

但是这种方法不会向打印机发送任何内容,打印机不会开始打印。通过查看这两种方法,我从这两个功能中混合了两个功能,我终于能够使用此代码进行打印,但存在与 SendFileToPrinter 相同的对齐问题,如果我始终以由制表符分隔的相同格式发送文本,则没有关系我发送到打印机的每一行都没有很好地对齐。

这是我的代码:

public static bool SendStringToPrinter(string szPrinterName, string szString)
{
IntPtr pBytes;
Int32 dwCount;
bool bSuccess = false;
IntPtr pUnmanagedBytes = new IntPtr(0);
int nLength = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(szString).Length;
// Dim an array of bytes big enough to hold the file's contents.
Byte[] bytes = new Byte[nLength];
bytes = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(szString);
// Allocate some unmanaged memory for those bytes.
pUnmanagedBytes = Marshal.AllocCoTaskMem(nLength);
// Copy the managed byte array into the unmanaged array.
Marshal.Copy(bytes, 0, pUnmanagedBytes, nLength);
// Send the unmanaged bytes to the printer.
bSuccess = SendBytesToPrinter(szPrinterName, pUnmanagedBytes, nLength);
// Free the unmanaged memory that you allocated earlier.
Marshal.FreeCoTaskMem(pUnmanagedBytes);
return bSuccess;
}

这是我需要打印的示例:

预期格式

第一行树行用于表的标题。 接下来的行将每 5 分钟打印一行,并带有值读数。

即使在格式化字符串并用制表符分隔后,它仍然不一致。

这就是我用我的弗兰肯斯坦方法打印时得到的。

页面标题 ...1号线 VAL3 VAL4 VAL1 VAL2
时间/日期 DESC DESC DESC DESC ........3号线 2019/3/4 11:30 100 300 500 434 ........4号线 2019/3/4 11:35 99 290 340 452 ........5号线 2019/3/4 11:40 120 310 100 532 ........6号线

它不一致,只有第一行打印正常并对齐。我是将原始数据发送到打印机的新手,当我每五分钟调用一次方法SendStringToPrinter(myString)时,我不知道发生了什么导致这种情况。我不知道我是否需要指定坐标或从哪里开始打印,也不知道如何操作。

我将不胜感激任何帮助,以解决此问题。

对于问题的第一部分,是的,WritePrinter是要走的路,因为它允许您发送原始字节。我没有阅读您所有代码的详细信息,因为对于这个问题来说,代码太多了。

对于此问题的布局部分,该打印机看起来像是期待 ESC/POS。这是命令表。更新文本文件以符合这些命令,即页面格式部分。例如

ESC HT 12 Hello 08 World

将"世界"与第 8 个字符的位置对齐。您需要试验这些命令以找到有效的命令。如果您是ESC/POS的新手,我建议您使用记事本++来创建测试文件。如果启用字符面板(编辑>字符面板),则可以将任意 ASCII 代码注入到文件中。上述 ESC/POS 字符串为:

1b090cHello09World
