I'm trying to send a simple string ("Hello world") to the printer, but for some reason, it only prints the first character ("H")
Here's the code
public class CardPrinter {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
PrintService mPrinter = null;
Boolean bFoundPrinter = false;
PrintService[] printServices = PrinterJob.lookupPrintServices();
//
// Iterates the print services and print out its name.
//
for (PrintService printService : printServices) {
String sPrinterName = printService.getName();
if (sPrinterName.equals("DTC4000 Card Printer")) {
mPrinter = printService;
bFoundPrinter = true;
}
}
// Open the image file
String testData = "Hello World !";
InputStream is = new ByteArrayInputStream(testData.getBytes());
DocFlavor flavor = DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.AUTOSENSE ;
// Find the default service
PrintService service = PrintServiceLookup.lookupDefaultPrintService();
System.out.println(service);
// Create the print job
DocPrintJob job = service.createPrintJob();
Doc doc= new SimpleDoc(is, flavor, null);
// Monitor print job events; for the implementation of PrintJobWatcher,
PrintJobWatcher pjDone = new PrintJobWatcher(job);
// Print it
job.print(doc, null);
// Wait for the print job to be done
pjDone.waitForDone();
// It is now safe to close the input stream
is.close();
} catch (PrintException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
static class PrintJobWatcher {
// true iff it is safe to close the print job's input stream
boolean done = false;
PrintJobWatcher(DocPrintJob job) {
// Add a listener to the print job
job.addPrintJobListener(new PrintJobAdapter() {
public void printJobCanceled(PrintJobEvent pje) {
allDone();
}
public void printJobCompleted(PrintJobEvent pje) {
allDone();
}
public void printJobFailed(PrintJobEvent pje) {
allDone();
}
public void printJobNoMoreEvents(PrintJobEvent pje) {
allDone();
}
void allDone() {
synchronized (PrintJobWatcher.this) {
done = true;
PrintJobWatcher.this.notify();
}
}
});
}
public synchronized void waitForDone() {
try {
while (!done) {
wait();
}
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
}
}
}
}
Any ideas?
The default printer is where your print jobs will automatically be sent when using Quick Print option in MS Office applications and others. It is also the printer that is automatically selected in all print dialog.
To choose a default printer: Select Start > Settings . Go to Bluetooth & devices > Printers & scanners > select a printer. Then select Set as default.
Besides, in the MS Word's Menu bar, click Tools > Option. Then choose the Printer tab. On the default paper tray option, choose Use Default Printer Setting.
Select the device for which you wish to change the default printer and, using your thumb or finger, swipe left, revealing an Orange Pencil Icon. Tap it and you will be able to set the default printer for this device.
Adding a form feed,
String testData = "Hello World !\f";
