爱普生TM-T88V格式化

我设置了一台运行 Ubuntu Server 12.04 的小机器，并直接插入 Epson TM-T88V。起初我能够很好地打印（使用 lp），但自动切纸器无法工作。我意识到它只是没有使用驱动程序中包含的正确 PPD 文件，因此一旦我将打印机设置为使用该切割就开始正常工作。

然而，一旦我使用正确的 PPD 文件得到它，文本打印得太浅，几乎难以阅读。当我尝试将 ESC/POS 命令直接传递给它时，基本上就像我回到了原始情况（深色文本，无剪切）。

这确实是我第一次涉足热敏打印机，所以如果我错过了一些简单的东西，我很抱歉。我是否以完全错误的方式处理这个问题？任何建议将不胜感激。

我最初将其发布在 SuperUser 上，但我想由于打印机物理工作正常，这显然是我在编程方面犯的错误。

这是我用来打印的命令（它是 Node.js）。我不知道是否值得注意的是，当我编写此应用程序并让它在我的 MBP 上运行时，我使用的是lpr not lp。无论出于何种原因，lpr不做anything在服务器上。

var toPrint = "echo '" +
            "Order for: " + req.body.name + "\n" +
            "Email: " + req.body.email + "\n\n" +
            "Food Items Ordered: \n" + foodItems +
            "\n\nThank you for using WhyWait!' | lp";
// Print the order!
var printCmd = exec(toPrint, function (error, stdout, stderr) {
  if (error !== null) {
   console.log('exec error: ' + error);
  }
  console.log('Order printed!\n');
});

这是 PPD 文件。

大多数热敏打印机有两种打印方法：

1. Normal(2D) - 例如从 Libre Office 打印
2. Raw（通用文本/原始 PCL 命令）- 例如直接从控制台打印原始文件。

您提到的打印机，TM-T88是流行的热敏打印机，用于打印收据；它可以同时做到这两点；它具有原始功能，但使用正确的软件可以从其他应用程序进行打印。 TM-T88 使用的原始语言是ESC/POS。 Epson 的所有 TM 系列打印机均ESC/POS有能力的。

您遇到的麻烦是您试图将原始命令发送到需要一些 2D 内容的驱动程序。有几种方法可以实现这一目标。

1. 映射两台打印机（一台映射到 2D 驱动程序，一台映射到通用/文本驱动程序——这在 CUPS 中称为“原始、通用”）先打印到一台，然后再映射到另一台。
2. 了解您正在执行的操作的原始命令。在这种情况下，它通常是： 十六进制：0x1B 0x69（剪纸）
3. 保持安装驱动程序，但无论如何通过在原始模式下直接向 cups 发出命令来强制原始lpr -o raw使用文件系统中的平面文件。

奖励：需要踢掉现金抽屉吗？0x10 0x14 0x01 0x00 0x05（脉冲/现金抽屉）。警告，请根据您的 ESC/POS 编程指南交叉引用所有原始命令。
