OPOS support for Receipt Printers

rbuser

Does ReportBuilder provide any support for using OPOS with Receipt
Printers, Cash Drawers, or Display Poles?

I am trying to support a Star Micronics HSP7000 receipt printer. The
manufacturer provides both Windows drivers and OPOS drivers. However,
to use the MICR scanning capabilities of the printer to scan checks, I
must use the OPOS drivers. The company provides wrappers for Visual
Studio (Visual Basic, C#, and C++) but not for Delphi. So I was
wondering if ReportBuilder provided any kind of access to the printer
using OPOS drivers.

David,

Have not heard of OPOS, but according to Wikepedia OPOS is a COM based
library. Delphi has strong COM support. You can use Delphi to import COM
libraries and it will generate the wrappers automatically. You can find
details in the Delphi help and also Google about using Delphi and COM.
Basically COM libraries register themselves in the Windows Registry. You use
the Delphi Components | Import Component to import a Type Library or ActiveX
control.
