The StarPRNT SDK Sample is a precompiled Sample App built from the Star Micronics Mobile SDK available from "Star Global Support Site". Here, you will also find the source code for this App, as well as full programming information for the range of Star POS printers.

The Star Micronics SDK makes it easy for the software developer to build on the range of functions included as standard, as well as the sample receipt templates.
