title: Print to a Dot-Matrix Printer directly from VB.NET
body: <p>i am finishing a program i am writing and i have to create a printing to an Epson LQ-300+ Dot-Matrix. The printing has to print some text in some specific parts of the paper (Amount,name etc)
  Can anyone point me to the right direction or post me an example since i was not able to find something in order to send directly the ASCII characters to the printer via LPT1.
  Thank you.</p>
