Attributes: ContractVersionAttribute DualApiPartitionAttribute MarshalingBehaviorAttribute StaticAttribute ThreadingAttribute

Implements: IDisposable

Windows 10 requirements

Device family	Windows 10 (introduced in 10.0.10240.0 - for Xbox, see UWP features that aren't yet supported on Xbox)
API contract	Windows.Foundation.UniversalApiContract (introduced in v1.0)

Remarks

To get a PosPrinter object, use the FromIdAsync or GetDefaultAsync static methods.

See the POS printer sample for an example implementation.

Version history

Windows version	SDK version	Value added
1703	15063	GetDeviceSelector(PosConnectionTypes)
1903	18362	GetFontProperty
1903	18362	SupportedBarcodeSymbologies

Properties

Capabilities	Gets the capabilities of the point-of-service printer.
DeviceId	Gets the identifier of the point-of-service printer.
Status	Gets the current status of the power and availability of the point-of-service printer.
SupportedBarcodeSymbologies	Gets the barcode symbologies that the point-of-service printer supports.
SupportedCharacterSets	Gets the list of character sets that the point-of-service printer supports.
SupportedTypeFaces	Gets the fonts and typefaces that the point-of-service printer supports.

Methods

CheckHealthAsync(UnifiedPosHealthCheckLevel)	Gets the health state of the point-of-service printer asynchronously.
ClaimPrinterAsync()	Claims the point-of-service printer for use, and gets an instance of the ClaimedPosPrinter class for the point-of-service printer.
Close()	Close the POS printer session. For C++ and JavaScript, use Close(). For C# and Visual Basic, use Dispose().
Dispose()	Performs application-defined tasks associated with freeing, releasing, or resetting unmanaged resources.
FromIdAsync(String)	Creates a PosPrinter object for point-of-service printer with the specified DeviceInformation.Id.
GetDefaultAsync()	Gets the default paired or locally-connected printer.
GetDeviceSelector()	Gets an Advanced Query Syntax (AQS) string that you can use to list the available point-of-service printers.
GetDeviceSelector(PosConnectionTypes)	Gets an Advanced Query Syntax (AQS) string that you can use to list the point-of-service printers available over the specified connection types
GetFontProperty(String)	Gets the specified font property from the point-of-service printers.
GetStatisticsAsync(IEnumerable<String>)	Gets the specified statistics from the point-of-service printer.

Events

StatusUpdated

Occurs when the status of the power or availability of the point-of-service printer changes.
