Hi all
I have some questions about Unidrv (GPD's minidriver + OEMDLL). Could somebody please answer my question?
Now I'm making Unidrv driver for miniprinter (like Epson's TM88III) with ESC/POS command. I completed printing with only image (maybe raster data), so I added device font in it.
Then I have got bad print result, which I am, researching driver's action and its execution sequence.
My driver does execute device font module first and then image. Exactly, like below
- When I print test_RASTERFIRST.doc to my miniprinter, functions' order is like below. - This is NG. Because of this order, coordinate Y is mismatch with real data's coordinate. SendFontCmd() OutputCharStr() SendFontCmd() OutputCharStr() SendFontCmd() OutputCharStr() :
SendBlockData() : :
- When I print test_DEVICEFONTfirst.doc to my miniprinter, functions' order is like below. - This is OK because device font module processed first.
SendFontCmd() OutputCharStr() SendFontCmd() OutputCharStr() SendFontCmd() OutputCharStr() : SendBlockData() : :
My minidrvier's peculiar things are... (GPD is attached)
*PrinterType: PAGE
*MasterUnits: PAIR(180, 180)
SendFontCmd() and OutputCharStr() work printing device font with command in UFM's SelectFont. Is the function call order related with something? I think printertype doesn't have relation with this problem, am I right?
I am now very discouraged and confused. T-T If among you a person who knows this, Please kind and concrete answer.
