Access printer connected at Virtual Printer Port (USB001) using python-escpos on Windows 10

Asked 2022-Jan-11 at 10:00

I have created a printing module, which work with printer connected at serial port using printer.Serial("COM5") interface provided by python-escpos.

But now, I have to switch to USB printer rather than serial. My USB printer is connected at virtual printer port (USB001). Now, printer.USB() requires vendorID and productID but in my case when I see Device Instance Path, it does't contain vendorID and productID (screenshot is attached below). I am stuck here that how can I connect with this USB printer.

Please note that my printer is R290 thermal printer and I have downloaded its driver from http://itambition.com/printer.html. The printer is connected at USB001 and test page is being printed successfully.

I have resolved the issue using following steps:

connect USB printer
install R290 driver from http://itambition.com/printer.html. it will setup USB001 for usb printer
from printer & scanners menu, select printer properties and share the printer
open cmd as administrator and run:

net use lpt1 \your-systems-hostname\printer-sharename

now connect printer.File("LPT1") interface of python-escpos and start printing

ANSWER

Isn't it a problem with the printer's USB mode setting?
TM-T20II printer has the modes of USB vender-defined class (COM Port) and USB printer class.
The VID/PID is USB vender-defined class=0x04b8:0x0202 and USB printer class=0x04b8:0x0e15 respectively.

TM-T20II Technical Reference Guide page 89

You should be able to change it with the printer's setting utility.
Alternatively, try changing the PID designation to 0x0202 as is, or try communicating as a COM port instead of a raw USB device.

Or it is possible that the advanced printer driver or Windows print spooler is already using the device and other programs cannot be used.
If the device driver is installed, try uninstalling it.

How to read ASB status in python-escpos

Asked 2020-Mar-22 at 10:24

I want to read back ASB and other status results in python-escpos. I thought the ._read() method would work but I get a "AttributeError: 'Serial' object has no attribute '_read'" error. I have verified the _read() method is there with inspect.

Any suggestion on how I can read back status's in python-escpos?

python3 python-escpos: product id / PID for EPSON TM-M30 needed

Asked 2020-Mar-04 at 13:06

Since some years I am running and maintaining an online P.O.S. system, where peripheral hardware and print system is managed by a RasPi with pure debian & python3.

My costumer bought a new receipt printer, which is an EPSON TM-M30. Currently he's using a TM-T88IV for that.

The python-escpos printer code snippet currently is

...

ANSWER

Answered 2020-Feb-29 at 02:30

The interface board of the EPSON printer is modularized and commonly used by many printers.
Interface Board
UB-U

The PID is for that interface board and is the same for any printer that uses it.

For example, for Japanese materials, the PID is the same for TM-m30 and TM-T88VI.
TM-m30 page 86
TM-T88VI page 118

Therefore, VID 0x04B8 and PID 0x0202 can be considered as IDs of USB interface boards of EPSON printers.

If you can get the Manufacturer and Product String Descriptors written in the document, you will be able to determine the printer model.
