Hi everyone,

we are developing services for retailers and one of them requires us to capture the print of the receipt to the thermal printer. The receipt would need to be printed by the thermal printer anyway though and we would just forward the contents (preferably in XPS) to our web service. Also the print ui does not show in the point of sale system.

How would we do this? Do we need to write our own driver that has a single filter pipeline that sends the xps file to our web service and then only forwards to the normal driver?

I read that there is also the possibility to modify the ini of other drivers/devices where we could add our filter to the pipeline as an upper filter? How would that work?

Thanks in advance :)
