C#

PosExplorer posExplorer = new PosExplorer();
            DeviceCollection receiptPrinterDevices = posExplorer.GetDevices(DeviceType.PosPrinter);
            DeviceInfo receiptPrinterDevice = posExplorer.GetDevice(DeviceType.PosPrinter, "PosPrinter");
            PosPrinter printer = (PosPrinter)posExplorer.CreateInstance(receiptPrinterDevice);
            printer.Open();
            printer.Claim(10000);
            printer.DeviceEnabled = true;
            printer.PrintNormal(PrinterStation.Receipt, "test print 1\n");

But getting error in last line,

printer.PrintNormal(PrinterStation.Receipt, "test print 1\n");

as "microsoft.pointofservice.poscontrolexception:UnicodeDLL:-3000". :( .what is the reason?

You need to trap the execption and see what information is available. Use your debugger to stop in the catch block and examine all the details.

Have you tried this code http://support.microsoft.com/kb/322091[^] instead of using that POS dll from MS?
