Hi,
As a new service to customers in my store I am trying to set up a process to automatically capture printed label and or receipt data to a database. I have noticed you have Hook printer and some other solutions which may be exactly what I need.
Windows 7/8 system
Prints labels to zebra label printer
Prints receipts to oki dot matrix printer
I wish to capture all of this data preferably to a spreadsheet or other database format.
Can you help with any of your products please?
