我有一个使用“打印到文件”生成的 PCL 文件。
在 C# 中以编程方式打印此文件的最佳方法是什么？
（当然，鉴于我要打印的打印机支持 PCL。）
我知道我可以通过从提示中调用来打印：
copy filename.pcl //location/printername
所以我想我也可以以编程方式（使用复制）做同样的事情......我想知道是否有更清洁的方法来做到这一点，比如使用 PrintDocument。
请注意，当我使用 PrintDocument 时：
var pd = new PrintDocument
{
DocumentName = @"filename.pcl";
PrinterSettings = {PrinterName = @"\\location\printername"}
};
pd.Print();
我总是打印空白页。
很抱歉这么晚才回答这个问题，但我有一些代码可以完成这项工作。原来不是我写的。我从另一个程序员的帮助站点收到了代码，但我不记得是哪一个了。它工作得很好。这是创建 dll 的项目。要自己做，请选择 Create:/Project/Class Library（在项目类型下选择 Visual C#）。

Marshal.FreeCoTaskMem(pBytes);
return true;
}
}
}
现在，要使用此代码，请将生成的 dll 添加为项目的引用，然后根据需要调用函数。这是我今天使用的一些代码：
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using System.IO;
namespace PclFontTest
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
string szPrinterName = @"\\printserver\LaserJet 2420";
StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(@"C:\Fonts\US20HP.FNT");
string line = (char)27 + "*c32545D";
line += sr.ReadToEnd();
line += (char)27 + "*c5F";
PrintRaw.RawFilePrint.SendStringToPrinter(szPrinterName, line);
}
}
}
该程序从文件中读取 PCL 字体。它用代码包装字体，为其分配一个 32545 的字体 ID，然后调用 dll 函数 SendStringToPrinter。
这篇文章适用于 Visual Basic，但我认为它很容易理解以便能够将其应用到 C# 中。否则，我很乐意为您解决任何有问题的部分。
如果打印机在网络上，这里有一个有趣的例子来说明如何直接与它对话。如果您只是将 PCL 的字节发送到打印机，不确定它是否也有效。
我们对每个 DLL 导入使用以下方法：
[DllImport("winspool.Drv", EntryPoint = "OpenPrinterA", SetLastError = true, CharSet = CharSet.Ansi, ExactSpelling = true, CallingConvention = CallingConvention.StdCall)]
public static extern bool OpenPrinter([MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPStr)] string szPrinter, out IntPtr hPrinter, IntPtr pd);
[DllImport("winspool.Drv", EntryPoint = "ClosePrinter", SetLastError = true, ExactSpelling = true, CallingConvention = CallingConvention.StdCall)]
public static extern bool ClosePrinter(IntPtr hPrinter);
[DllImport("winspool.Drv", EntryPoint = "StartDocPrinterA", SetLastError = true, CharSet = CharSet.Ansi, ExactSpelling = true, CallingConvention = CallingConvention.StdCall)]
public static extern bool StartDocPrinter(IntPtr hPrinter, Int32 level, [In, MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPStruct)] RawPrinter di);
[DllImport("winspool.Drv", EntryPoint = "EndDocPrinter", SetLastError = true, ExactSpelling = true, CallingConvention = CallingConvention.StdCall)]
public static extern bool EndDocPrinter(IntPtr hPrinter);
[DllImport("winspool.Drv", EntryPoint = "StartPagePrinter", SetLastError = true, ExactSpelling = true, CallingConvention = CallingConvention.StdCall)]
public static extern bool StartPagePrinter(IntPtr hPrinter);
[DllImport("winspool.Drv", EntryPoint = "EndPagePrinter", SetLastError = true, ExactSpelling = true, CallingConvention = CallingConvention.StdCall)]
public static extern bool EndPagePrinter(IntPtr hPrinter);
[DllImport("winspool.Drv", EntryPoint = "WritePrinter", SetLastError = true, ExactSpelling = true, CallingConvention = CallingConvention.StdCall)]
public static extern bool WritePrinter(IntPtr hPrinter, IntPtr pBytes, Int32 dwCount, out Int32 dwWritten);
