#Introduction

Printing for Laravel allows your application to directly send PDF documents or raw text directly from a remote server to a printer on your local network. Receipts can also be printed by first generating the raw text via the Rawilk\Printing\Receipts\ReceiptPrinter class, and then sending the text as a raw print job via the Printing facade.

Here's a simple example of what you can do with this package:

$printJob = Printing::newPrintTask()
    ->printer($printerId)
    ->file('path_to_file.pdf')
    ->send();

$printJob->id(); // the id number returned from the print server
