4.1 Method of Printing to the UB-E02

The UB-E02 has lpr protocol as its general print protocol. It is easy to print by using the lpr protocol because the printing is also supported by the operating system.

However, the command statuses sent by the printer are ignored because the printing by lpr applies only to the output of the printer.

The UB-E02 supports direct printing by TCP PORT9100. It is possible to control the printer directly by an application with the ESC/POS commands through writing and reading to the TCP PORT9100.
