im using aloha 5.3.36 i need to arabic language everytime im doing receipt printing, i need a translation for each item.
 
If you are able to type Arabic into Aloha, then the issue will be with the printers. Make sure Arabic is a supported font.

If it is, look to change your printer settings.
Install the advanced Printer driver for Epson or what ever brand you are using. Add the local printer. Then share it. In Aloha change the printer from a local with com port to windows printer with shared name. In doing so the drivers that control the printing will be on the local machine with support for Arabic and not not raw data as it is being sent now.

AlohaRoss thank you for your reply, what i did is i install arabic language, i change the regional setting to saudi, im using windows xp with sp3, in notepad i can type arabic but in aloha no its showing like ascii.. im using epson tm 88v
 
Any update regarding to this issue?

I'm using Aloha version 6.2 and Receipt printer is Epson TM-T88V.
I tried to apply the Arabic font in aloha manager but it's showing special characters only
Already installed arabic font and added arabic language,

OS is windows XP
 
If you can make it show up in Aloha you should be able to follow my steps to print on the printer. I have not done Arabic but I have done this with Thai Language
