I have error like " ionic.bundle.js:26794 Error: [$injector:unpr] Unknown provider: $BTPrinterProvider <- $BTPrinter <- printBt "

anyone can help me how to use it

My Code

.controller('printBt',['$scope', '$BTPrinter' ,function($scope, $BTPrinter) {

$scope.printbtes = function(){
var doc ="tes";
$BTPrinter.connect().then(function(res) {
console.log("success");
console.log(data);
},function(err){
console.log("Error");
console.log(err);
}, "PrinterName")
}

}])

Could somebody please let me know, why it's not working with my Ionic project? I just created a test project to test the plugin.

https://github.com/OliverTr54/bletest.git

I did some alerts to figure out, if the function is started or not, but after the first alert - executing the BTPrinter.... I get no other alert anymore, neither on success or error :( What am I doing wrong?

I use Ionic 3:

global packages:

    @ionic/cli-utils : 1.4.0
    Cordova CLI      : 7.0.1
    Ionic CLI        : 3.4.0

    Cordova Platforms               : none

    ios-sim    : not installed
    npm        : 3.10.10

I currently test my development by using Ionic View.

When the BTPrinter is offline or BtPrinter is far away from phone device, below function's error callback is late. How can I decrease that time limit?

BTPrinter.connect(function(data){
alert("success");
},function(err){
alert("error");
}, "PrinterName");

I'm printing in spanish and this character ¡, is not used in english, so how would i make it happen? it shows a weird subindexed Tand a weird í instead.

I was taking a look at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5396560/how-do-i-convert-special-utf-8-chars-to-their-iso-8859-1-equivalent-using-javasc thinking it's an encoding issue.

Hi, I'm developing a phonegap app with js and i need to print a logo and barcode. Are you working on this? or do you know any plugin that works and has image print support?

Once I connect printer and give print command, getting "service discovery failed". What could be the fix?

           function list()
    	{
    		try
    		{
    			window.BTPrinter.list(function(data){
		        alert("Success");
		        alert(data); //list of printer in data array
		    },function(err){
		        alert("Error");
		        alert(err);
		    })
    		}
    		catch(e)
    		{
    			alert(e.message)
    		}
    		
    	}

Hi,

I need a confirmation about following printer model . Do they work with this library ? or if any other printer.

1. SP-X501B is a thermal printer . SP-X501B

2. AGPtEK® 58mm Mini Bluetooth/USB Pocket POS Thermal Receipt Printer for Android IOS . Here

I need to use any one of above printer to print the order (Restaurant Management ).

In my project I needed a reliable isConnected() function, to test connection status and reconnect if needed, and as a workaround, I used this function that tries to print and, if not connected, tries to connect and print again. Thus, the connection to the device is made automatically. Tested on a cheap chinese bluetooth printer connected to an android device.

safePrint() {
  let device = 'MTP-3';
  let text = 'safe print ok\n\n';

  this.safe_print_msg = 'printing text...';

  setTimeout(() => {
    BTPrinter.printText(data => {
      this.safe_print_msg = 'print ok, already connected!';
    }, err => {

      this.safe_print_msg = 'print ERROR, connecting...';
      setTimeout(() => {
        BTPrinter.connect(data => {

          this.safe_print_msg = this.msg = 'connected, printing again...';
          setTimeout(() => {
            BTPrinter.printText(data => {
              this.safe_print_msg = 'print ok';
            }, err => {
              this.safe_print_msg = 'print_ERROR';
            }, text);
          }, 0);

        }, err => {
          this.safe_print_msg = this.msg = 'connect ERROR';
        }, device);
      }, 0);

    }, text);
  }, 0);
}

I can't use code , you have sample code.
Thank you
max

Kindly tell me how to print multiple lines. I've used \n but the printer simply ignores any text after the first \n it sees.

Thank you

Hello!

I can get a list of connected blueetoth devices with BTPrinter.list, but I don't know how to select one and use it for printing. I understand that I have to use BTPrinter.printText function, but I suppose this must know which printer to use.

Hi I have this error: ** Error Print! bad base-64 **
I use that print image method in this plugin, this is my code:
function printerDocument(printParam) {

	var tes='<div><img src="'+printParam.logo+'"/></div><br>';
     
	
		
	BTPrinter.connect(function (data) {
		
		console.log("Connected...");
		console.log(data);
		BTPrinter.print(function (data) {
			console.log("Success");
			console.log(data)
			BTPrinter.disconnect(function (data) {
				console.log("Success disconnected");
				console.log(data)
			}, function (err) {
				console.log("Error");
				console.log(err)
			}, "WOOSIM");
		}, function (err) {
			console.log("Error Print!");
			console.log(err)
		},tes);
	}, function (err) {
		console.log("Error Connecting!!");
		console.log(err);
	}, "WOOSIM");

printParam.logo is a base64 image

Just Doesn't want to print ?

<script>
        function disconnect(){
   BTPrinter.disconnect(function(data){
console.log("Success");
console.log(data);

},function(err){
console.log("Error");
console.log(err);
}, "C065120505");
}

Hey guys. I've been playing with this plugin since last night and faces some problem along the way. My initial setup connects to my bluetooth printer and send data to printer but doesnt print the text with no error log. Succeding test will also fail with error:read failed socket might blah blah.

Here's my solution, and this might help you as well.

1. I dive into the SDK and sourcecode included with my printer and found out that the printer accepts GBK bytes so I set that to the BluetoothPrinter.java (line 261) should be mmOutputStream.write(msg.getBytes("GBK"));
2. right below this line you have to flush the outputstream, like so: mmOutputStream.flush();
   that will solve the read failed error socket on succeding test.

I'll report back when i found something new, but right now my printer is working.
Thanks srehanuddin for the awesome plugin..one star for you brother.

I install the plugin at command line,But I don't know how to import it to ionic2 project

In the current state connection management is very difficult, the only connection things we have is connect, disconnect, and with a parameter also disconnect all.

However there's no way to tell if you're already connected, currently i have to try and catch a disconnect operation no matter what, even if it's the first connection (just to be safe).

In most parts of my code i have catch blocks that trigger a disconnect, connect again and retry the current operation.

As some of you could notice, this leads to some overhead because i have to call some functions many times even if it is not necessary, and yet errors still occurs.

Say i print, some times the connection breaks or something like that, then it tells me some errors, sometimes trying to print again fix the issue, other times i have to shut down the printer, close the app and open again in order to get rid of the issue.

Is it possible to create a function to check if the connection is OK?, not just open but that the data is actually being received by the printer (valid connection)?

I have been trying to use this plugin for some time now with little success.

Here is my controller

angular.module('starter.controllers', ['ionic', 'starter.controllers','ngCordova'])

.controller('PrintCtrl', function($scope, BTPrinter) {

BTPrinter.list(function(data){
console.log("Success");
console.log(data); //list of printer in data array
},function(err){
console.log("Error");
console.log(err);
})

})

I keep on getting this error message

Unknown provider: BTPrinterProvider <- BTPrinter <- PrintCtrl

Help!

How can use this plugin in config.xml file not by Using the Cordova CLI and NPM?
I added this line into my config.xml but got an error message on adobe phonegap builder;
<gap:plugin name="Cordova-Plugin-Bluetooth-Printer" source="npm" />

error message:

Error - The following plugin, plugin version or a dependancy of this plugin is not on npm: Cordova-Plugin-Bluetooth-Printer

Hai guys

I found a problem when connect to get the message 'println needs a message'

Please help
thank you

Hello,

My code:

Thank you!
