.NET Printing ESC/code to printer

Locked

Hi,
I need to convert our label program from vb6 to .NET. It prints ESC codes to a EPSON TM-L60II printer. We use it for barcode and other printers.
I can’t find a way to print directly to the printer in .NET, VB2008?
Does anybody know how to do this?

printer e.g. LPT1 / COM1

I found this

Looks to me if you twiddle with create file, and knock up a class to write to a stream you should be away.

Have n’t tried it though, last time If did this sort of thing was Delphi on NT4 way way back when.

Thanks
