I'm developing a web system for financial control, you need to print invoices on a thermal / fiscal printer.

Would it be possible to integrate this device with the browser or will I be forced to develop a desktop application for this?

Depending on your infrastructure, you can have your Web application interact directly with your fiscal printer from your server. This requires access to the printer.

In this way you eliminate individual settings for each machine that will use your application; only your server will need to have the driver for the device.

Thenamespace System.Drawing.Printing has classes that can meet your need. Follow an example on MSDN . / p>

It is possible, just define a print layout and send the document like any other, to the printer of the equipment, whether thermal or not, who manages the printer is the machine, you will only generate a kind of report, where it goes be formatted in the format of the note you use.
