Create Hot folder Printer Program & driver using Software developers kit, DLL, Visual C++ 6.0
$500-700 USD
Paid on delivery
I have many Mitsibushi CP9810DW printers. They are photo printers that print out 4x6" photos and cut the paper off a roll of 6" wide paper.
I have obtained the SDK (software developers kit)
I prefer working with people in the USA However I will consider people outside the USA if they have high speed internet and can remotely log into my pc using a program like teamviewer.
I am looking to use the mitsibushi 9810 printer with a custom made
c++ hot folder printing program. However I want the printer to do 2x6"
strips and 4x6" capability. I have spoken to Mitsubishi and they have given
me the SDK for this machine (see attached zip file) I have a lot of these
printers so I'm thinking a software solution would probably be cheaper than
upgrading all of them.
They have told me the following:
the hotfolder printing C++ software would have to create a direct custom
driver without windows printer support
there is a folder with a USB update program that
converts the usb printing support to a mitsibushi printer port
Since the SDK is only for custom integration with a program I could not use
a program that uses standard printer support like photoshop;.it will not
see the printer.
This sdk is for developing a printer driver which will replace standard
windows printer driver.
There is a sample application (c++6) that will help programmer to see how
it works. The PDF file on page 34 shows the "cut5" needs to be selected for
the printer to cut strips in half.
I would also like the option if possible to have a super long strip FOUR
4x6" prints that are only cut once leaving a 16" x 6"long strip.. I'm not
sure if the SDK supports this.
The program you make would basically monitor a folder for new JPEG iamges.
Once a new image appears it would create a bitmap file and send it to the
mitsibushi printer to be cut in half making 2 strips each 2x6" in size
(bottom option page 34, #5)
The second option would be to create a HUGE 6x16" piece of paper, not sure
if SDK supports this. Downloading the exsisiting driver would be of no use since this project requires you to work with the SDK.
