Thermal printer driver install kaise kare: Windows 10 aur 11.

Zyada tar billing software, chahe desktop wala GST software ho ya browser mein chalne wala, bill ko waise hi print karta hai jaise Word ek page print karta hai. Page Windows ke printer queue mein jaata hai, aur queue ko driver chahiye jo us page ko printer ki bhasha mein badle. Driver nahi, toh printer list mein hi nahi dikhega, ya bill A4 size ka banke jaayega.

Windows ka apna built-in driver sirf Mopria-certified printers ke liye hai, aur sasta 58 ya 80 mm thermal printer aam taur pe us list mein nahi hota. Isliye company ka driver hi normal raasta hai. Driver ka naam aksar POS-58, POS-80 ya POS-80C jaisa hota hai.

Google pe "printer driver download" likhe toh pehla page driver wali sites se bhara hota hai. Unka installer purana, galat model ka, ya extra software ke saath aa sakta hai. Microsoft khud kehta hai: driver company ki site se le. Neeche har company ka official page hai, 23 Sept 2026 ko khol ke check kiya.

Aapki company list mein nahi hai? Printer ke box mein aayi CD dekhe, ya dealer se driver maange. Printer USB pe COM port ki tarah dikhta hai toh uske andar ka USB-serial chip ka driver chahiye, jaise WCH ka CH340/CH341 driver (official page).

Installer pe "Windows can't verify the publisher" aa sakta hai. Chhoti companies ke driver mein yeh common hai. Bas installer company ki apni site se aaya ho. Windows ki driver signature wali security setting band na kare.

Raasta 1: company ka installer (pehle yahi try kare)

1. Download ki hui file pe right-click kare, Run as administrator.
2. Model chune aur port chune (agla section dekhe).
3. Kuch companies bolti hain ki pehle driver install kare, phir USB cable lagaye. Star yahi bolta hai, toh installer khatam hone tak cable na lagaye.
4. Epson ka APD6 installer port type poochta hai (Serial, Parallel, USB, Ethernet) aur USB ke liye apna port banata hai. Printer ka cover khula ho ya paper khatam ho, toh USB driver add nahi hota.

Raasta 2: download mein sirf .inf files hain

1. Windows 11: Settings → Bluetooth & devices → Printers & scanners → Add device. Windows 10: Settings → Devices → Printers & scanners → Add a printer or scanner.
2. Printer list mein nahi aata toh The printer that I want isn't listed ke saamne Add a new device manually dabaye.
3. Add a local printer or network printer with manual settings chune, port chune.
4. Have Disk dabaye, download wala folder khole aur .inf file chune. Model select kare, naam de aur Finish chune.

Driver sahi hai par port galat, toh printer chup baitha rahega. Printer kaise juda hai, uske hisaab se port chune:

Kal chal raha tha, aaj nahi? Kisi ne USB cable doosre socket mein laga diya hoga. Printer properties → Ports mein doosra USB00x tick kare aur test page nikale. Cable ek hi socket mein rakhe, scene khatam. Counter pe Bluetooth sabse kamzor link hai: USB ya LAN chune.

Settings → Printers & scanners → apna printer → Printer properties → General tab → Print Test Page. Test page ek lambi slip pe nikalta hai.

• Page nikla: driver aur port dono theek. Ab billing software mein yahi printer chune.
• Kuch nahi nikla: port badal ke dekhe, printer ka cover aur paper check kare. Queue mein job atka hai toh printer Offline ya atka hua wala guide padhe.
• Ajeeb symbols ya Chinese jaise characters: driver ya emulation galat hai. Printer garbage print kar raha hai dekhe.

Printer properties → Printing Preferences → Advanced (ya Paper/Quality) mein paper size apne roll ke hisaab se chune. Har driver ka naam alag hota hai: Star isse "72mm x Receipt" bolta hai, POS-80 driver 80 mm width aur lambi page length dikhate hain, 58 mm driver 58 mm. Jo naam aapka driver 80 ya 58 mm roll ke liye dikhata hai, wahi chune.

Default banane ke liye Printers & scanners mein Let Windows manage my default printer band kare, phir thermal printer pe Set as default. Browser wali billing aur Chrome ka kiosk printing default printer pe hi bhejte hain, toh yeh zaroori hai.

Bill browser se chhota ya aadha aa raha hai? Driver ke baad Chrome ki settings bhi chahiye: Chrome se thermal bill theek size mein.

POS-80 type drivers mein cutter aur drawer ke options Printing Preferences mein, ya printer properties ke Device Settings tab mein hote hain. Naam driver ke hisaab se thode alag hote hain: cutter ke liye "cut at document end" jaisa, drawer ke liye "open before printing" ya "after printing". Billing software driver se print karta hai, toh inko on karna hi aksar poora fix hai.

• Cut hi nahi hota: bahut saare 58 mm printers mein cutter hota hi nahi, bas tear bar. Detail: printer paper cut nahi karta.
• Drawer nahi khulta: drawer ki cable printer ke DK port (RJ11) mein jaani chahiye, computer mein nahi. Phir driver mein drawer option on kare.

Windows ke andar ek Generic / Text Only driver aata hai. Add printer ke manual steps mein company "Generic" aur printer "Generic / Text Only" chune. Yeh plain text aage bhej deta hai, aur agar billing software khud printer ki ESC/POS commands bhejta hai toh woh bhi.

• Chalega: jab aapka billing software khud ESC/POS bhejta hai. Kai desktop POS programs yahi karte hain.
• Nahi chalega: browser billing ya jo bhi software "page" print karta hai. Logo, graphics aur auto-cut nahi aayenge, aur ₹ ka symbol bhi aksar nahi.

Toh pehle company ka driver. Generic / Text Only tab, jab kuch aur na mile.

Windows protected print mode. Microsoft ke mutabik is mode ko on karne par third-party driver use karne wale printer remove ho jaate hain. Mopria-compatible printer ko Windows Ready Print se dobara install kare. Non-compatible printer ke liye mode band karna security aur compatibility ka trade-off hai: office policy ho toh IT se baat kare. Mode band karne ke baad printer khud wapas nahi aata; manually reinstall karna padta hai. Microsoft ka current protected-print guide step-by-step details deta hai.

Windows Update ko pehle check kare, par exact model na mile toh wait na kare. Microsoft third-party printer drivers ko phase out kar raha hai, lekin har thermal printer ke liye universal “kabhi nahi milega” rule sahi nahi hai. Add device model ko pehchan le toh use kare; warna exact-model package company ki official site se le.

"Driver is unavailable" dikhe toh printer hataye, apne Windows ke 64-bit type ka driver company ki site se dobara le aur install kare.

Upar ke saare steps isliye hain kyunki aapka software Windows ke driver ke through print karta hai. EasyKOT Desktop App aisa nahi hai. Woh network (port 9100) aur USB thermal printer se seedha baat karne ke liye bana hai: na maker ka driver, na port ka chakkar, na paper size ka dropdown.

Desktop App mein Settings → Printers & KDS khole aur Detect printers dabaye (ya guided raasta, Set up a new printer). Desktop App khud chaar round mein printer dhoondhta hai, aur screen pe dikhata hai ki abhi kya chal raha hai:

1. “Checking this computer’s USB and Bluetooth ports…”
2. “Trying the printers’ factory addresses…”: naye printer apni company ke fixed address pe aate hain (jaise Xprinter 192.168.123.100, Rongta 192.168.1.87, TVS 192.168.0.31). Desktop App seedha wahi try karta hai, saath mein router ka address.
3. “Asking the network which printers are here…”
4. “Sweeping the Wi-Fi for anything on port 9100…”

Har printer ke neeche likha hota hai ki Desktop App ko kyun lagta hai yeh printer hai, jaise “Answered a receipt-printer command — this is a printer”. Apna printer chune, 80mm ya 58mm chune, Print a test slip dabaye. Bas.

Detect printers ka result: network pe printer mila, wajah ke saath. Koi driver install nahi kiya.

• USB printer: Windows pe Desktop App Windows ka apna built-in USB printing driver use karta hai, maker ka driver nahi chahiye.
• Printer pehle se Windows mein installed hai? Add manually mein Windows printer (driver queue — no live status) chune. Chalega, par is raaste pe paper khatam ya cover khula Desktop App ko nahi dikhta. Network ya USB behtar hai.
• Bill pehle save, print baad mein. Printer band ho toh bhi sale nahi jaati: print queue mein 5 minute tak khud retry karta hai. Phir bhi nahi hua toh ruk jaata hai, Print ka wait karta hai.
• Check printer 5 cheezein ek saath dekhta hai: power & network, cover, bhasha, health aur test slip.

Check printer: 5 check, har ek ka seedha result.

Seedhi baat: abhi koi printer model hamare yahan certified nahi hai. Asli printer pe hamara record USB print ka hai (Mac Desktop App, 17 Sept 2026). Isliye hum "yeh brand chalta hai" nahi bolte. Aapke printer ka proof 10 second ki test slip hai. Poore steps: thermal printer ko EasyKOT se connect kare. Desktop App yahan se download kare.
