Abstract

本发明公开了一种兼容多种智能打印机的方法及系统，在移动设备中安装打印机兼容APP，智能打印机配套的打印机APP的Androi dMan i fest中响应一个固定的act i on，需要打印时，打印机兼容APP将需要打印内容发送至服务器端，服务器端生成PDF文档后将下载链接返回至打印机兼容APP。打印机兼容APP下载PDF文档至本地，当检测到有打印机APP响应了该固定的act i on时，将该PDF文档的存放路径发送至打印机APP，打印机APP控制智能打印机完成打印。本发明将不仅可以不受第三方打印机的技术限制，而且很容易进行广泛兼容，且第三方打印机品牌进行兼容的难度和成本很低，只需要在配套的打印机APP的Androi dMan i fest中响应一个指定的act i on即可。

Description

一种兼容多种智能打印机的方法及系统
技术领域
本发明涉及打印技术领域，具体涉及一种兼容多种智能打印机的方法及系统。
背景技术
在教育领域，越来越多的家长为了孩子的教育，购买了打印机设备。近两年，在教育学习领域中，一种新型的热敏打印机悄然兴起，此设备使用简单、无需加墨。但市场上的打印机品牌众多，打印机的支持协议也不尽相同，如何在一个APP中兼容多种智能打印机成了一个难题。目前常见的方法是在APP中加入多个打印机的SDK，一一对每个品牌的打印机进行兼容，但这种方法费事费力，每增加一个兼容品牌，就要修改一次APP，非常不方便。
发明内容
针对现有技术的不足，本发明旨在提供一种兼容多种智能打印机的方法及系统。
为了实现上述目的，本发明采用如下技术方案：
一种兼容多种智能打印机的方法，具体过程为：
S1、首先在移动设备上安装打印机兼容APP，同时安装所购买的智能打印机配套的打印机APP，所述打印机APP的AndroidManifest中响应一个固定的action；
S2、用户将要打印的内容通过打印机兼容APP发送到服务器端，服务器端根据打印尺寸对要打印的内容进行排版并生成一个PDF文档，然后将该PDF文档的下载链接返回至打印机兼容APP；
S3、所述打印机兼容APP检测移动设备中是否有打印机APP响应了所述固定的action，如果有，打印机兼容APP在移动设备的显示界面上显示打印按钮；
S4、用户点击打印按钮后，所述打印兼容APP按照PDF文档的下载链接将PDF文档下载到移动设备本地，再调用响应了所述固定的action的打印机APP并向其传递PDF文档的存放路径；
S5、所述打印机APP收到PDF文档的存放路径后，自行控制对应的智能打印机进行打印。
本发明还提供一种实现上述方法的系统，包括：
打印机兼容APP：安装在移动设备中；用于将用户要打印的内容发送到服务器端；用于在收到服务器端返回的PDF文档的下载链接后检测移动设备中是否有打印机APP响应了固定的action，如果有，打印机兼容APP在移动设备的显示界面上显示打印按钮；用于在用户点击打印按钮后，按照PDF文档的下载链接将PDF文档下载到移动设备本地，再调用响应了所述固定的action的打印机APP并向其传递PDF文档的存放路径；
服务器端：用于根据打印尺寸对用户要打印的内容进行排版并生成一个PDF文档，然后将该PDF文档的下载链接返回至打印机兼容APP；
打印机APP：其AndroidManifest中响应一个指定的action，用于在接收到来自打印机兼容APP的PDF文档的存放路径后控制对应的智能打印机完成打印。
本发明的有益效果在于：本发明不仅可以不受第三方打印机的技术限制，而且很容易进行广泛兼容，且第三方打印机品牌进行兼容的难度和成本很低，只需要在配套的打印机APP的AndroidManifest中响应一个指定的action即可。
具体实施方式
以下将对本发明作进一步的描述，需要说明的是，本实施例以本技术方案为前提，给出了详细的实施方式和具体的操作过程，但本发明的保护范围并不限于本实施例。
实施例1
本实施例提供一种兼容多种智能打印机的方法，具体过程为：
S1、首先在移动设备上安装打印机兼容APP，同时安装所购买的智能打印机配套的打印机APP，所述打印机APP的AndroidManifest中响应一个固定的acti on。
具体地，本实施例中，所有想兼容本实施例打印方法的打印机APP都需要在AndroidManifest中隐式响应一个固定的action为"com.readboy.printer.pdf"。
S2、用户将要打印的内容通过打印机兼容APP发送到服务器端，服务器端根据打印尺寸(A4纸或热敏纸)对要打印的内容进行排版并生成一个PDF文档，然后将该PDF文档的下载链接返回至打印机兼容APP；
S3、所述打印机兼容APP检测移动设备中是否有打印机APP响应了所述固定的action，如果有，打印机兼容APP在移动设备的显示界面上显示打印按钮；
S4、用户点击打印按钮后，所述打印兼容APP按照PDF文档的下载链接将PDF文档下载到移动设备本地，再调用响应了所述固定的action的打印机APP并向其传递PDF文档的存放路径；
S5、所述打印机APP收到PDF文档的存放路径后，自行控制对应的智能打印机进行打印。
通过对现有的各种A4纸打印机和热敏打印机的实现原理和技术进行分析，发现虽然各种打印机差异较大，但都能支持PDF文档的打印，本实施例方法基于该共同点对多种智能打印机进行兼容，不仅可以不受第三方打印机的技术限制，而且很容易进行广泛兼容，且第三方打印机品牌进行兼容的难度和成本很低，只需要在配套的打印机APP的AndroidManifest中响应一个指定的action即可。
实施例2
本实施例提供一种实现上述方法的系统，包括：
打印机兼容APP：安装在移动设备中；用于将用户要打印的内容发送到服务器端；用于在收到服务器端返回的PDF文档的下载链接后检测移动设备中是否有打印机APP响应了固定的action，如果有，打印机兼容APP在移动设备的显示界面上显示打印按钮；用于在用户点击打印按钮后，按照PDF文档的下载链接将PDF文档下载到移动设备本地，再调用响应了所述固定的action的打印机APP并向其传递PDF文档的存放路径；
服务器端：用于根据打印尺寸对用户要打印的内容进行排版并生成一个PDF文档，然后将该PDF文档的下载链接返回至打印机兼容APP；
打印机APP：其AndroidManifest中响应一个指定的action，用于在接收到来自打印机兼容APP的PDF文档的存放路径后控制对应的智能打印机完成打印。
对于本领域的技术人员来说，可以根据以上的技术方案和构思，给出各种相应的改变和变形，而所有的这些改变和变形，都应该包括在本发明权利要求的保护范围之内。
