Does Crystal Reports print labels to a thermal printer

We have a thermal printer, with the product description information. We need to generate the labels from the database. Wondering if this can be done via Crystal Reports. We currently have Crystal R XI.
THanks

Type of printer should not be problem. Say why don't you send a simple one page print command and test..

Success

We printed to the SATO barcode printer successfully. Once you change Printer Properties (File>Page Setup> Printer) and locate the SATO, the report automatically changes margins to the settings of the printer. We had to change the offsets a little to massage the text into the right area of the sticker, otherwise it worked.
