I'm trying to print a receipt using android and Bluetooth printer. I've managed to print text normally and using ESC/POS command for some of the texts. However I can't figure out how to print a table-like structure like:

I've tried to use reverse-feed but the printer doesn't seems to support it (I tried with a few commands but didn't work). Currently the only way I can think of is to calculate the length of each number and add space between them to look like a table. Is there a way to do this by using ESC/ POS command?

@jht It's been a long time since I've worked on this project, but I think I ended up having to add space to the characters to make them appear as a table instead of using any command. This was because I can't find any command that would work as I needed. – rabbit87 Sep 16 '17 at 12:03

Maybe you can generate an image and print image? I am also having same issue and I think I'll end up with doing that. – Ejaz Karim May 06 '18 at 12:26
i guess there will be quality issues with printing an image vs printing a string directly... – Shoaeb Mar 17 '21 at 03:40
