1.2. OPOS Control Outline
1) OPOS Control Configuration Drawing
OPOS Control co
nforms to ActiveX specifications and provides Property, Method, and Event to
application. Control cannot be seen on UI in application execution. Only application, which uses it,
requests to process through Method and Property. Application receives processing result through
Method return value, parameter, Property, and Event. This OPOS Control is implemented as
in-process server.

Chapter 8 "Using Multiple Printers."
* In case of LD670, OPOS Driver doesn’t support drawer connection.
* In case of LAN Interface, OPOS Driver doesn’t support drawer connection.
*This OCX works with Thread Model of STA(Single, Thread or Apartment). To work with
several processes, the setting value of "Apartment" in Registry should be set as "1".
*Regarding LAN interface, Network Connection corresponds to 10Base-T, 100Base-T.

s on OPOS specifications]
All the interfaces of OPOS POS Printer Device are provided, but there are the following
a. It does not support property setting concerning journal printing and journal.
b. It does not support property setting concerning slip printing and slip.
c. It does not support functions of Italic, custom color, shading printing, and cartridge.
d. It does not support change of receipt printing character font. (Printing font change)
e. The following methods always return OPOS_E_ILLEGAL(106) after enabling.
(Limitation of Cable disconnection and connection)
There are conditions for disconnection and connection of LAN cable under printer
"enable" status:
1)When LAN cable is disconnected from PC, printer cannot support any actions. When the
cable is disconnected during "enable" status, OCX may fail to be "enable" even though the
application restarts.
2)When LAN cable is disconnected from Printer, and while OCX and printer is connecting,
printer cannot support any actions even if "disable" is sent. If "disable" is sent in above
situation, even though the application is restarted, OCX may fail to enable.
When the LAN cable is disconnected, connect the LAN cable again, and switch off and on
the power of Printer.

implementation of exclusive processing for the critical sections is required for accessing
the property and executing the method in order to avoid the method and property are

the several processes do "Open" OCX (LAN Interface) at the same time, unexpected
results may happen.
4) Setting of Apartment ="1" with connecting LAN interface cable
Apartment is set as "
In this case, the number of printers (LAN interface) should be guaranteed that one process
should be less than one unit. If more than 2 printers per one process were used, unexpected
results might occur. The following chart shows the examples of the case that Apartment
