I am making a program that will print out some things. I have two questions:
1. How do you print a RichTextBox's contents?
2. How do you print plain text in a specific font? (It's a whole document in 1 font.)
How can I send commands to LAN Printer?
View 5 RepliesI would like to ask a question about sending a BMP logo to a printer for storage. As I used to send a txt file to the printer, I just read through the file and store the contents of the file in an string. After sending the string to the COM port connecting the printer with "ComPort.Write(msg)", the txt file can be successfully printed. When dealing with the printing image problem, I tried to read the image with a binary reader and store into a binary array. Then I write the binary array to the COM port connecting the printer, with "ComPort.Write(bitArray, 0, bitArray.Length)". I am still quite new for VB.
View 2 RepliesWe have large IBM Infoprint printers. I need to read a bunch of PDF files off a database, merge them together, and send it to one of these printers. I need to be able to specify many options such as what tray to use, with/without staple, etc. All of these options can be manually set when I try to print something off my computer (via the advanced print driver preferences), so I am certain that these can also be set programmatically. How can I do this in .NET (Visual Basic)?
View 2 RepliesI have been working at printing receipts using printform, but the printer does not seem to be receiving any information from the form. Here is the
Public Sub PrintReceipt()
PrintForm.PrintAction = Printing.PrintAction.PrintToPrinter
PrintForm.Print()
End Sub
When I use the "PrintToPreview" print action, there is nothing shown on the screen.
How can I print report directly to the printer, instead of viewing it on screen (Vb.Net)?

I was just wondering how the hell you send documents of different type directly to the printer without a preview.
At first I thought this would be easy but so far I have had no joy at all.
How do i get a type of the installed printers? laser, ink, dot matrix etc
View 4 RepliesYpos = TopMargin + Count * PrintFont.GetHeight(ev.Graphics)
ev.Graphics.DrawString(ROData(x, 3), PrintFont, Brushes.Black, LeftMargin, Ypos, New StringFormat())
Count = Count + CInt(ROData(x, 4))
The above line prints the data contents of the ROData array in position three. I would like to be able to assign a specific position accross the line to have the printer print the data at without left padding the array data.
we have a vb.net windows appliacation that uses sql server as backend. we have created all reports for this application using crystal report that is embedded in visual studio 2005. everything is working fine except the reports specially which needs to be displayed is custome mode. we have used some code to dynamically set the printer settings because at runtime the original printer settings are unknown and we don't want to let user set printer settings manually everytime before taking the printout. so the question is, how to set a custom papersize programactically. here is the code snippet that we have used to set some printer settings in runtime :-
rpt.PrintOptions.PrinterName = Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("DefaultPrinter")
rpt.PrintOptions.PaperOrientation = PaperOrientation.Landscape
rpt.PrintOptions.PaperSize = PaperSize.PaperFanfoldUS
we have usedreportdocument object to set printer options. we have two rpts which need to displayed in custom paper format. the formats are like 9X6 and 14X12. we have created these formats in server properties. now how to to set this from code? like in place of rpt.PrintOptions.PaperSize = PaperSize.PaperFanfoldUS...some sort of syntax which will let us to put the papersize in place ofPaperSize.PaperFanfoldUS...
I need to control a device with a GPIB port. I have the commands that I need to use to do this; but I don't know which is the sintaxis in Visual Basic.
For example if I need to send a instruction like "START:0.01" to the external device which are the libraries that I have to include?, how should I write the programming line to do this?
The main tasks that I need to program are sending data, receiving data, and saving data
When I print to the printer, using the PrintDocument, I want it to be able to throw an exception if there is a problem. Currently, if I print to a printer that has a jam, is offline, or doesn't even exist, VB still thinks it printed fine. I never get an error. How can I have the printer report back to my program so that if I print to a printer that doesn't even exist, it wont let me do it? I just tried adding a LPT1 printer to my computer (and there is no local printer). I called it some random printer and installed some random driver. Then used my program to print to that printer and never got an error.
