Printing directly to a thermal printer using ESC/POS Commands executed in C# with an interface of TCP/IP

问题


I was working on implementing ESC/POS(Epson Standard Code for Point of Sale) on a Kitchen printer(Aclas KP71M).
I have a user interface the the POS user enters its string in to the user interface and the strings entered by the user will be sent to the printer and the printer prints the data.
The printer interface with the host computer using Ethernet(100M) using TCP/IP connection.
I have managed to embed each of the necessary commands in to a C# method and I also take some sample code on server/client C# connection and tried to include that in to my connection.
The problem I am facing right now is that my code seems to start the connection but it freezes right away without doing nothing and stopped the connection.I would be very grateful if any one can correct me, or show me where the problem is, or give me some idea on how to proceed?
Here is the code.

Answering this question in case anyone else comes along with the same q. This is what worked for me:

Socket clientSock = new Socket(AddressFamily.InterNetwork, SocketType.Stream, ProtocolType.Tcp);
clientSock.NoDelay = true;
IPAddress ip = IPAddress.Parse("192.168.0.18");
IPEndPoint remoteEP = new IPEndPoint(ip, 9100);
clientSock.Connect(remoteEP);
Encoding enc = Encoding.ASCII;

// Line feed hexadecimal values
byte[] bEsc = new byte[4];
bEsc[0] = 0x0A;
bEsc[1] = 0x0A;
bEsc[2] = 0x0A;
bEsc[3] = 0x0A;

// Send the bytes over 
clientSock.Send(bEsc);

// Sends an ESC/POS command to the printer to cut the paper
