No RAW printing MacOS

Open selenecodes opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

System Info: printer: Star TSP143 with cash drawer os: MacOS

On MacOS I can control the cash drawer by sending a RAW buffer to the printer however it does not print anything if I'm using the RAW buffer datatype. Everything works fine on Windows including printing and the cash drawer if I'm using RAW.

What works:

  • Opening a cash drawer using RAW
  • Printing using type TEXT What doesn't work:
  • Printing using type RAW

Having the same issue here. Using the same Star TSP143 printer. I can't print anything with type: 'RAW'. Every other type I've tried works fine.

MacOS 10.15.2 CUPS 2.3.0

In my case I can print without problem, but after the first impression, new direct print in RAW doesn't work, but continue working print in TEXT. I have to turn off the printer. is there a way to close the process or release the printer?
