i already able to print text using kotlin to thermal printer, but im still dont know how to print image to thermal printer in kotlin. please give me sample printing image to thermal printer in kotlin.i already search for the topics, but it written in java, i doesnt know java very much thanks for the help

Using Thermal Printer repo references, I managed to print image to Bluetooth thermal printer. Make sure to use a proper black and white image to print.
Here is the piece of code I used to make a java class
--BitmapHelper.java.
public class BitmapHelper {
private static String[] binaryArray = { "0000", "0001", "0010", "0011",
"0100", "0101", "0110", "0111", "1000", "1001", "1010", "1011",
"1100", "1101", "1110", "1111" };
public static byte[] decodeBitmap(Bitmap bmp){
//Bitmap bmp = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bitmap, 50, 50, false);
int maxWidth = 350;
int bmpWidth = bmp.getWidth();
int bmpHeight = bmp.getHeight();
if(bmpWidth > maxWidth){
float aspectRatio = bmp.getWidth() /
(float) bmp.getHeight();
bmpWidth = maxWidth;
bmpHeight = Math.round(bmpWidth / aspectRatio);
bmp = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bmp, bmpWidth, bmpHeight, false);
}
List<String> list = new ArrayList<>(); //binaryString list
StringBuffer sb;
int zeroCount = bmpWidth % 8;
StringBuilder zeroStr = new StringBuilder();
if (zeroCount > 0) {
for (int i = 0; i < (8 - zeroCount); i++) {
zeroStr.append("0");
}
}
for (int i = 0; i < bmpHeight; i++) {
sb = new StringBuffer();
for (int j = 0; j < bmpWidth; j++) {
int color = bmp.getPixel(j, i);
int r = (color >> 16) & 0xff;
int g = (color >> 8) & 0xff;
int b = color & 0xff;
// if color close to white，bit='0', else bit='1'
if (r > 160 && g > 160 && b > 160)
sb.append("0");
else
sb.append("1");
}
if (zeroCount > 0) {
sb.append(zeroStr);
}
list.add(sb.toString());
}
List<String> bmpHexList = binaryListToHexStringList(list);
String commandHexString = "1D763000";
String widthHexString = Integer
.toHexString(bmpWidth % 8 == 0 ? bmpWidth / 8
: (bmpWidth / 8 + 1));
if (widthHexString.length() > 2) {
Log.e("decodeBitmap error", " width is too large");
return null;
} else if (widthHexString.length() == 1) {
widthHexString = "0" + widthHexString;
}
widthHexString = widthHexString + "00";
String heightHexString = Integer.toHexString(bmpHeight);
if (heightHexString.length() > 2) {
Log.e("decodeBitmap error", " height is too large");
return null;
} else if (heightHexString.length() == 1) {
heightHexString = "0" + heightHexString;
}
heightHexString = heightHexString + "00";
List<String> commandList = new ArrayList<>();
commandList.add(commandHexString+widthHexString+heightHexString);
commandList.addAll(bmpHexList);
return hexList2Byte(commandList);
}
private static List<String> binaryListToHexStringList(List<String> list) {
List<String> hexList = new ArrayList<String>();
for (String binaryStr : list) {
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
for (int i = 0; i < binaryStr.length(); i += 8) {
String str = binaryStr.substring(i, i + 8);
String hexString = myBinaryStrToHexString(str);
sb.append(hexString);
}
hexList.add(sb.toString());
}
return hexList;
}
private static String myBinaryStrToHexString(String binaryStr) {
StringBuilder hex = new StringBuilder();
String f4 = binaryStr.substring(0, 4);
String b4 = binaryStr.substring(4, 8);
String hexStr = "0123456789ABCDEF";
for (int i = 0; i < binaryArray.length; i++) {
if (f4.equals(binaryArray[i]))
hex.append(hexStr.substring(i, i + 1));
}
for (int i = 0; i < binaryArray.length; i++) {
if (b4.equals(binaryArray[i]))
hex.append(hexStr.substring(i, i + 1));
}
return hex.toString();
}
private static byte[] hexList2Byte(List<String> list) {
List<byte[]> commandList = new ArrayList<byte[]>();
for (String hexStr : list) {
commandList.add(hexStringToBytes(hexStr));
}
return sysCopy(commandList);
}
private static byte[] hexStringToBytes(String hexString) {
if (hexString == null || hexString.equals("")) {
return null;
}
hexString = hexString.toUpperCase();
int length = hexString.length() / 2;
char[] hexChars = hexString.toCharArray();
byte[] d = new byte[length];
for (int i = 0; i < length; i++) {
int pos = i * 2;
d[i] = (byte) (charToByte(hexChars[pos]) << 4 | charToByte(hexChars[pos + 1]));
}
return d;
}
private static byte[] sysCopy(List<byte[]> srcArrays) {
int len = 0;
for (byte[] srcArray : srcArrays) {
len += srcArray.length;
}
byte[] destArray = new byte[len];
int destLen = 0;
for (byte[] srcArray : srcArrays) {
System.arraycopy(srcArray, 0, destArray, destLen, srcArray.length);
destLen += srcArray.length;
}
return destArray;
}
private static byte charToByte(char c) {
return (byte) "0123456789ABCDEF".indexOf(c);
}
}
Then I use it in the print activity:
private fun p2(){
val convertBmp : Bitmap
convertBmp = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(),com.example.ronibluetooth.R.drawable.poly)
val decodeBmp = BitmapHelper.decodeBitmap(convertBmp)
val scope = CoroutineScope(Dispatchers.IO)
scope.launch {
try {
val os =mBluetoothSocket.outputStream
os.write(decodeBmp,0,decodeBmp.size)
}
catch (e: Exception) {
Log.e("PrintActivity", "Exe ", e)
}
}
}
