AEVI Printer Driver API

This API allows developers to quickly and easily create a driver for any manufacturer of POS style printer which will in turn enable it to be used by value-added-application developers who are developing applications for AEVI enabled devices.

Prerequisites

This API is an entry point to the AEVI Printer Driver Service. In order to use this API sucessfully on a device the AEVI printing service application must be installed along with your printer driver application that will handle the actual print process with the physical devices.

Binaries

In your main gradle.build you'll need to include our public bintray in your main repositories section.

    repositories {
        maven {
            url "http://dl.bintray.com/aevi/aevi-uk"
        }
    }

And then add to your dependencies section

compile 'com.aevi.print:printer-driver-api:1.0.0'

DemoPrinterDriver

The DemoPrinterDriver application contained here is an example printer driver implementing this API. This driver will print to the standard Android PrintManager, in a real example you would replace the Android PrintManager with calls to the manufacturer specific API/SDK for the physical printer device.
