Receipt Printing
If you have a receipt printer, you can easily print receipts to it via the Rawilk\Printing\Receipts\ReceiptPrinter
. This will generate a string
that you can then send to your receipt printer.
// First generate the receipt
$receipt = (string) (new ReceiptPrinter)
->centerAlign()
->text('My heading')
->leftAlign()
->line()
->twoColumnText('Item 1', '2.00')
->twoColumnText('Item 2', '4.00')
->feed(2)
->centerAlign()
->barcode('1234')
->cut();
// Now send the string to your receipt printer
Printing::newPrintTask()
->printer($receiptPrinterId)
->content($text)
->send();
If you are using the PrintNode driver, the content will be base64_encoded
automatically for you.
More info on the receipt printer can be found in the api reference.
