How to find USB printer configured as HID-compliant device #243

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Changed configuration of Boca 26/46 printer to HID-compliant device.
2.Plugged in via USB and installed as HID-compliant device.
3.Cannot find the printer.
4. Ran demo.qzindustries.com site - pressed "List all Printers" and does not 
list any HID-compliant devices.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
qz 1.8.7
Windows 7 

Please provide any additional information below.
I assume qz Java is just finding printer devices, but can't find HID-compliant 
devices.

Or is there another way I can detect it?

Lack of official HID support in Java requires the printer to be registered as a 
printer in the OS.

This may change in the future, as the Desktop version would make 3rd party HID 
API more of a possibility.
