How to print some strings from S71215 to a Epson TM-U220 printer

I'm working with a S7-1215 CPU and need to send some strings (40 Characters every line, 4 lines) to a printer EPSON TM-U220 with Ethernet interface. Printer supports protocols: TCP, UDP, ICMP, IP, LP/LPR, TCP socket Port I've never used any of these protocols and I have not needed to print from a PLC. This is my first time. Can you help me to solve this "problem"? Thanks in advance!

That's the easiest way, check the below link where u can find the sample program. /tf/WW/en/Posts/46768 Try & revert back if there s any issues. Regards, Nelliyan.G

Hello figalamx, Have a look at How do you program the TSEND_C and TRCV_C instructions for open user communication over the integrated PROFINET interface of the S7-1200 CPU? This is common for TCP, UDP and also ISO on TCP.
