Thank you for the information Aaron.  We are using a USP to Parellel printer cable so we’ll keep trying.

There was a bug for the SP200s with Xulrunner 1.9 (which is used in EG 2.x). See: https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/491537
In 1.6.x, we have ONLY been able to use the SP200 series printers via parallel (The SP200 series printers do not handle HTML and EG will only send plaintext (DOS Mode) to LPT1). We had a library who was using USB to Parallel adapters. They ended up sharing their SP200s (to the network) and mapping them to LPT1 (from the same computer) with NET USE, but it was flaky and they ended up replacing their SP200 printers with SP512s.

	Hello,

	 

	Is anyone printing to a Star SP200 receipt printer using Evergreen 2.1?  If you can print successfully to the SP200 from Evergreen can you tell me the driver you are using?  We have tried the sp212 driver but have not had success.  The printer uses a USB connection.

	 

	Thanks.

	Joan
