I am able to connect to printer. The issue m facing is - it is printing byte Array. Please have to look in the code, in bulktransfer i am sending byte array. I have a pDF file saved.Sorry for the trials that are commented. Thank you in advance. Any help is appreciated. package com.net.atos.printusb;
