opos

I would like intercept print instruction from POS sytems, capture the text content(as I need to use this) and send it to the printer. And would also like to use a program with OPOS standards, so that it will work with all kinds of POS system. I looked into MS POS .Net and and samples from MONORECS and still not clear on how to accomplish this.

If some body can shed some light on how to achieve this, setting up a test system, where can I learn more about this and give some directions that will be great.
