Where did you find your printers connector descriptor

RachanaTri commented 3 years ago

It's the printer model name IMG_20210510_134004

Also I have tried using XP-80 printer with windows I have connected XP-80 printer using USB, but it is giving me error : copy(\computer\XP-80): failed to open stream: No such file or directory

Here is my code ; use Mike42\Escpos\Printer; use Mike42\Escpos\PrintConnectors\WindowsPrintConnector; $connector = new WindowsPrintConnector("smb://computer/XP-80"); $printer = new Printer($connector); $printer -> text("Hello World!\n"); $printer -> cut(); $printer -> close();

Please suggest what I am missing. Thank You

It's depend on your environment. WindowsOS, use WindowsPrintConnector MacOS, use CupsPrintConnector

This error Command lpstat -a failed: sh: 1: lpstat: not found is happened because you try to run the CupsPrintConnector other than MacOS
