Have the user enter the name of the printer they are using as a part of the setup to a variable/property.

Don't hard code the name or the printer in your app.

Example: set printer to name eval('pcPrinter') works for me. here pcPrinter is the name I pass.



>For me, there is a draw back when it comes to the end user, they might used or buy different brand of receipt printers...If I coded like what you said, let say in my release version I use the "Set print to name Epson", but the end user buy themselves a Star Micronics Receipt printers.. then I have to change my Codes or rename the printer name in Windows which is im trying to avoid.
