I have to setup a point-of-sale system for a friend. He has a PC, barcode scanner, receipt printer and cashdrawer.
The receipt printer connects to the serial port.
The cashdrawer connects to the printer.
The barcode scanner has a keyboard wedge.
Do I need to setup the receipt printer as a windows printer?
OR can I send output directly to the serial port using ASP?
The salesman told us that there is an epson escape sequence that you append to the end of the sales receipt information, which will kick the cashdrawer open, so that sounds simple enough. Just not sure on how the printer should be setup/configured so I can send the escape sequences to open the cashdrawer.
do u have experience in using browsers (IE or Firefox) control hardwares like barcode printer or com port before? can it be done? if yes is it using ActiveX to achieve it?

I have an asp page that displays a recordset from a table in paginated format with header values on each page from another table in the database. To print, one needs to click the print button and a new page properly formatted pops up and opens the print manager in windows.
One must do this for each page. If I have 300 pages that's a lot of work for the end-user.Attached is the code I'm using to print.Does anyone see how I could make it utomatically print ALL the pages, rather than one at a time?
What I want to do is spit recordset variables from the database and place them on a page so they can be printed. The problem I am running into is that it cuts off part of the printed page. Does anyone know of a way to clean produce a page to be printed even if there is multiple pages so that it does not cut off text?
