I'm creating point of sales web based application using PHP. this application must can print to thermal printer. I use Star SP700. I'm already install printer driver and testing with "printer test page", and its works.

I tried using Mike42/escpos and following instruction from documentation

    require_once APPPATH.'vendor/autoload.php';
    use Mike42\Escpos\Printer;
    use Mike42\Escpos\PrintConnectors\FilePrintConnector;
    use Mike42\Escpos\PrintConnectors\WindowsPrintConnector;

    $connector = new FilePrintConnector("php://stdout");
    $printer = new Printer($connector);
    $printer -> text("Hello World!\n");
    $printer -> cut();
    $printer -> close();

but this script giving me a blank page and not printing anything (on screen and printer). I'm using windows 10. how can fix this problem ? I expect my PHP script can print to thermal printer.

Is the setting mode different? How about changing the printer mode and device driver according to the manual or setting tool? Software Installation Manual – kunif

use Mike42\Escpos\PrintConnectors\WindowsPrintConnector;
use Mike42\Escpos\CapabilityProfile;
$profile = CapabilityProfile::load("SP2000")
$connector = new WindowsPrintConnector("smb://computer/printer");
$printer = new Printer($connector, $profile);
