Communication avec Virtual Printer Port to USB

Question

Bonjour,
Je cherche à envoyer un flux sur un port virtuel USB.
Lorsque vous connectez une imprimante sur un port USB, ça vous crée un port USB001 (Virtual printer port to USB).
Je veux pouvoir envoyer un flux sur ce port. Ce flux est envoyé à une imprimante thermique.
Si l'imprimante est sur un port COM ou LPT1, pas de problème j'utilise la méthode CreateFile de kernel32.dll mais avec USB001, ça ne marche pas.
Avez vous une idée ou un driver USB particulier à utiliser?
Merci.

Bonjour,
Ca remonte à quasi 5 ans maintenant :)
Je n'ai pas trouvé de solution à l'époque. Je suis donc passé par le nom de l'imprimante.
