Mike42 ESCPOS - Print 4 png files in one line

When I want to print 4 PNG files (100x100) via Mik42/ESCPOS. It printed each PNG file on each line. Is there any method to print all four PNG files in one line?

$printer -> setJustification(Printer::JUSTIFY_LEFT);
$printer -> graphics($HC1,false);
$printer -> graphics($HC1,false);
$printer -> graphics($HC1,false);
$printer -> graphics($HC1,false);
Solution

  • One of the following can be considered.

    1. Create one image data by arranging four image data in one horizontal line and print it.
    2. Set the page mode by combining the raw ESC/POS command data, repeat the print start position with the raw ESC/POS command data after the graphics print function of escpos-php, and finally the raw ESC/POS command, performs actual printing and page mode end.
