Hello @pankajnirwan103 , thanks for your plugin, it works well. Now I have to find the good receipt printer which works with Printershare or an other printing app... By the way, do you use your plugin with a receipt printer or just a basic printer ? I have an other question about the printing app that you use in your example, do you think is possible to find an equivalent of this printing app but that we can configure directly in the app or in the plugin ? I just want as when I click on "print", I have to choose which printer and that's all.

Thanks for you help. Cheers

Thierry

I am using it with normal printer.

For your second question, I think there is no such app. But of course, you can write a plugin to do that. What you will need is a printer SDK (or some API), which will be used to send data to printer. In a way, you will be writing a printer app (ex printersharer) as a sub-module of your app.

Hi, Ok thanks for your answer.

I have an other question, about your plugin. I saw in the file "Printer.java" that there are different "android.intent.action.SEND". It depend of which printing app we are using, right ?

How can we get the "intentId" of the other printing app ? Because there are only 3 exceptions for send2printer, printershare and HP ePrint, and maybe it's why when I try others printing app, it doesn't work.

I want to try with Epson iPrint, PrintBot, Zebra Utilities, Print Station (Zebra) ...

I appreciate your help. Cheers. Thierry
