Hi,
I'm working with the opentaps software and the related pos system. I've
been trying to get a Star Micronics TSP743II usb printer working but so far
I've had no success. One of the reasons that I chose this printer is that
I'm running off ubuntu and this usb printer works in ubuntu without too much
difficulty. So, I've set up the printer and can print to it. However, once I
run the pos then it doesn't work and gives an error.
[ GenericDevice.java: 76 :ERROR] jpos.JposException: The device
communications channel could not be opened, chech the device and retry.
I believe this is the initial point of failure but don't know how to address
the error. The jpos.xml file I've put is
<JposEntry logicalName="TSP743II_linux_usb_printer_class">
<creation
factoryClass="com.starmicronics.starjavapos.ServiceInstanceFactory"
serviceClass="com.starmicronics.starjavapos.POSPrinterService" />
<vendor name="Star Micronics" url="www.star-m.jp/eng/index.htm" />
<jpos category="POSPrinter" version="1.9" />
<product description="Star receipt printer" name="TSP743II"
url="www.star-m.jp/eng/index.htm" />
<prop name="model" type="String" value="TSP743II" />
<prop name="portName" type="String" value="usbprn:TSP743II" />
<prop name="portSettings" type="String" value="" />
<prop name="ioTimeoutMillis" type="Integer" value="5000" />
<prop name="doCheckedBlockPrinting" type="Boolean" value="True" />
</JposEntry>
Any information i've found online relates to Epson printers or glosses over
the use of a Star printer.
Any help or pointers in other directions would be appreciated as I'm out of
ideas.
thanks,
Colin
