Our SDK accepts an Android Bitmap object, which is not a BMP file (it's an uncompressed in-memory representation of the image data).

You can print any image that can be decoded to an Android Bitmap. That includes JPG and PNG, or any way you choose to manually construct the Bitmap object including drawing to a Canvas and converting to the Bitmap.

It requires a Bitmap object, which you pass into PrintImage. https://github.com/clover/remote-pay-...

You can read more about creating Bitmap object here: https://developer.android.com/referen...

Hi Sam

I tried jpg image with following code.

Bitmap printImage = new Bitmap("d:\receipt.jpg"); cloverConnector.PrintImage(printImage);

But nothing printing. Anything wrong with this code?

I can't able to print image from remote-pay-windows clover SDk1.0 application.

The bitmap object will need to be an Android Bitmap object. I've changed my answers to reflect this. Apologizes for the confusion.

I am getting following error while using PrintImage method with Bitmap(sample.bmp) "The Clover transport layer can see the USB device, but encountered an error when attempting to send it a message. Try Physically disconnecting/reconnecting the Clover device"

Kindly do the needful. thanks
