It is "usb-com". Look at windows configurator. It knows right values.

Also, you may try "printer=usb-com".
Is it "usb-com" or "usb;com"?

Instead of the raspberry Pi's IP?

This printer has serial port wrapped into USB. With "serial=com1(usb)", WTware redirects serial port named COM1 to Windows. Can you configure windows printer driver to print to COM1?

Also, you may try "printer=usb-com".

2. On Windows machine run Device Manager. Look carefully at USB devices and COM/LPT ports. Then connect printer to this Windows machine. Which new device will appear? Disconnect and look again. I want to know all new devices. More than one new device may be added.
About the number 2. With the config serial = com1(usb) I tried this but nothing happens.

Remove "printer = usb". This device is not USB printer.

Add:

Code: Select all

serial=com1(usb)
And make new log.

Hey, akatik. Thanks for the response.

I've attached the log.

I was unable to to the second thing because the person with the device didn't have time today.

Maybe you can find something in the log.

Cheers.

Printer in Windows Server 2019

Hello!

I've been able to install printers in WTware without issues but today I'm trying to install a certain Bematech printer and can't make it work.

The printer needs to be installed through a software of theirs and I can define the IP address just fine. What I am unable to do is enable bidirectional support because it is grayed out. I don't know if this would make it not work.

It is the first time I install WTware and a printer in a Windows Server 2019 so I was wondering if this could be the issue.

The model of the printer is: MP-4200 TH.

I'm trying to install using

Code: Select all

printer = usb
and Static IP.

Thanks in advance.
