Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers Printing 5 raw characters to a printer Post 302085505 by Friğrik on Thursday 17th of August 2006 03:57:05 PM

Solved.

The problem was not anything about the printer setup. I wasn't using the -oraw parameter (which makes it a raw command). This is the solution then:

Open drawer: echo -e "\033\160\060\067\171" | lpr -P Skuffa -oraw
Receipt cutter: echo -e "\033\155" | lpr -P Skuffa -oraw

Thank you for your help.
