Hello ,
I write as same this example but I have a problem the printer only text but pdf not print.

To print a PDF, you need a printer that can print graphics. Most can, but you also need to know how to send pictures. This flutter_esc_pos* package can communicate to ESC/POS printers, but not all of them are compatible.

I have tried it. Image is printing perfectly. But when I am printing any text, it's just printing a blank page. I have tried with multiple fonts.
