Wrapper around unix lp commands used to send file to a printer, manage connected printers and see print queue.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

Usage

Basic Usage

Print a file using the default printer.

<?php
(new \TheNodi\PrinterWrapper\PrinterManager())->printFile('/path/to/file.txt');

List all printers

<?php
(new \TheNodi\PrinterWrapper\PrinterManager())->printers();
// => Printer[]

Page Settings

Print a page in landscape mode.

<?php
(new \TheNodi\PrinterWrapper\PrinterManager())
    ->landscape()
    ->printFile('/path/to/file.txt');

Print a letter.

<?php
(new \TheNodi\PrinterWrapper\PrinterManager())
    ->media(\TheNodi\PrinterWrapper\Printer::MEDIA_LETTER)
    ->printFile('/path/to/file.txt');

Print a document two-sided.

<?php
(new \TheNodi\PrinterWrapper\PrinterManager())

If you need to pass a custom option to the lp command use the setOption method.

<?php
(new \TheNodi\PrinterWrapper\PrinterManager())
    ->setOption('only-name')
    ->setOption('name', 'value')
    ->printFile('/path/to/file.txt');
// => lp -o only-name -o name=value ...
