OpenSource драйвер терминального принтера Custom VKP80 для Windows и Linux

Мой драйвер дает низкоуровневую обвязку 87 функций чекового терминального принтера Custom VKP80. При этом в этой версии мне были не нужны и остались нереализованными в связи со сжатыми сроками разработки всего пять операций принтера.

Драйвер позволяет работать с термопринтером VKP80 в основном не обращаясь к документации на принтер, а пользуясь непосредственно Intellisense-подсказкой Visual Studio.Это переносимый код, пригодный для использования в Windows и Linux по технологии MONO.

На этом уровне не реализована также подробная обработка статусов принтера - байты статуса вам придется обработать самостоятельно в вышестоящем классе, наследующем эту низкоуровневую обвязку примерно так:


   1:   Public Class VKP80_Status
   2:          Inherits VKP80_CMD
   3:   
   4:   Public Enum VKP80_Status
   5:          PaperEnd = &H10
   6:          ....
   7:      End Enum
   8:   
   9:      Dim Stat1() As Byte = VKP80_CMD.CMDstatus_Transmit_status(1)
  10:      If Stat1(0) Xor VKP80_Status.PaperEnd Then
  11:          ....

Возможно, я в будущем опубликую версию с оставшимися пятью командами и обработкой состояния сенсоров принтера и статусов принтера.
