I have a program needs to print directly to a Zebra TLP 2844-Z barcode printer.
I tried the codes in [url]... but an error occurred when i run it, as follows:
A call to PInvoke function 'test!test.RawPrinterHelper::OpenPrinter' has unbalanced the stack. This is likely because the managed PInvoke signature does not match the unmanaged target signature. Check that the calling convention and parameters of the PInvoke signature match the target unmanaged signature.
May I ask if any one has any other idea of printing directly to printer in VB2005?

I have a process that does a lot of data manipulation and then prints a simple report directly to a printer. The overall priority is speed. Tens of thousands of records need to be scanned & processed individually so moving thru them quickly as possible is the goal.
Pseudo code
01)Scan Barcode
02)Fill DataSet from Sql Server
03)Manipulate data in dataset
04)Update data back to Sql Server
05)Print crystal report directly to printer; the dataset is the reports source
06)Clear dataset and start next record back at step one
The process if pretty complicated with a ton data manipulation and data coming from multiple sources but that part works super and in short all I am doing is scanning barcode, filling a dataset, passing it to a report and starting over. Steps 1 to 4 are averaging one tenth of a second (0.01) to complete; great. Passing it to the report to print takes several seconds which is the problem. I thought I would resolve this by passing the dataset to the report print sub - allowing the print sub to run on a background thread - and moving on to processing the next record.
Dim m_ds As MyTypedDataSet
Sub ScanBarCode
Fill DataSet
Validate & Manipulate Data
Call PrintReport
Clear Dataset
End Sub
I have been attempting to add the PrintReport sub to process on a background thread. The problem though is the main thread blows right by to the next step and clears the dataset; causing an error in the report sub. I've tried unsuccessfully just about everything I can think of; including using DataSet.Copy to local datasets (which I really don't want to keep recreating the same object over & over tens of thousands of times), as soon as the main dataset clears, all clear.

What i want to do is simple but at the same time complicated. I have multiple .PDF file and i want to print them all. Thing is, all the .PDF are in 8,5 X 11 paper size. The printer is also on this paper size by default and i want to print them in a different size. I want to change the default printer size programatically so it prints in the right format. I need to change this in the program because i need to print in a few different paper size.
here is some code
Dim Process1 As New Process
Dim starter As New ProcessStartInfo("C:Program FilesAdobeReader 10.0ReaderAcroRd32.exe", "/t " + path + filename + " " + printername + "")

I never used the printingdocument class, and i need some info to know if i can do what i'm thinking.I need to send some text from one textbox directly to one printer (i doesn't have to be the default printer), the user just have to push the button in the form, and the text gets printed. I don't need (want), the print preview and the form with the printers list.

I have a web service that is currently calling the DOS command copy to put a text file to a specified network share.
This is the code:
Imports System.Web.Services
Imports System.Web.Services.Protocols
Imports System.ComponentModel
Imports System.Data
Imports System.IO
Imports System.Xml
[Code] .....
It appears doing this might be causing some problems and our front-end programmer suggested I see if I can output the stream "output" directly to the network shared printer specified by the SOAP request. Is this possible? This is VS 2010

1. Detect if my printer is busy, because my code tells the printer to print more pages that it can cope with, so I need to delay the command for 'Print the next page' until the printer has finished printing the previous one.
2. Shift the output to my printer so that it gets printed in it's entirety on the paper, instead of seemingly being anchored to some nebulous point on the A4 page. It starts printing at X = 29mm from the left edge, and Y is 28mm from the top, and stops at X = 22mm from the right edge and Y stops at 22mm from the bottom edge, leaving (aprox) 50mm of X and 50mm of Y unprinted.
3. Get useful information on Bounds, which I'm fairly certain is what I need to control where my printing should start and finish.
I've hunted through this forum, MSDN, 'Help' (a misnomer if ever there was one) the VB Library and one or two other forums, which either baffle me with reams of code or suggest code to try which either just don't work or which doesn't declare all the variables and usually don't suggest what type of variable I need, it's all very frustrating

I know this says not for VB6, however there does not seem to be a forum for VB6. I have VB6 and Access. I want to print to a printer.There is a Printer class with many properties such as line draw, page, orientation, EndDoc etc. It does not have a print option. All documentation I have been able to find is like this
Dim printer1 as printer
set printer1 = Priinters(2)
printer1.print "This is a test line." ' This does not work, error message "Runtime error '438'" "Object doesn't support this property or method." also I get the same error message for printer1.EndDoc even though it is listed.

I am using the PDF control from Adobe to view and print pdf documents and works well. I am setting the default printer prior to printing and then call Print. I need to change this where I do not change the default printer due to a conflict with another program. But I cannot see where I can set the printer only for printing from this control. I do not want to use a dialog because it does have a PrintWithDialog option. Is there any other way to do this without the dialog?

Does someone has already printed to a printronix printer (serie t5000r) using .NET (visual basic or C#) ? We already have the file (txt) with the code to generate the label until I know the code it's PGL. What've done was to use file.copy() to send the file to the LPT1 port (we use this method with Zebra printers and it works fine) but the printer print plain text instead of the label with it's format (barcode, titles, etc).

I am an old Quick Badic Programmer - I was pretty good. VB 2010, and the .NET framework, are NOT improvements! Moving on, all articles I read about printing are focused on VB 6, and little or nothing about VB 2010 or .NET I don't care about the power pack, since it isn't any better than .NET - so how about a ground-up tutorial on how to print to the printer for someone who is being driven crazy by Microsoft's total F-UP of BASIC.
