I'm a noobie so I need help with installing a USB printer that isn't in the preset list of manufactures. I opted for a cheap printer vs a $300.00+ dymo/zebra since I won't be using it often as it's only being used for a Pibooth setup.
I downloaded the printer driver file from the Offnova site and installed the printer with the ppd file. The printer shows up in my available printers but when I run a print test, it will only advance the paper. It doesn't print anything.
The driver file does have a cups folder and has raster files which I remember seeing a command for a raster file when I installed the Zijiang driver for a thermal receipt printer. Not sure if I need to do something with that?
Printer: Offnova 4B-2054N
Printer comes up as: 4BARCODE-4B-2054N
Pi I am using: Raspberry Pi 3B+
Hopefully I've provided enough info. If anyone can help me figure this out, I'd really appreciate it!
Thank you!
