Hoping your printer using COM1 or LPT1, just open the port and write the bytes. Have a look at the following namespace:
System.IO.Ports
.............................
Me .m_com = My.Computer.Ports.OpenSerialPort(Me.m_portName, Me.m_baudRate, Me.m_parity, Me.m_dataBits, Me.m_stopBits) Me.m_com.Write("Your String")
...................................
Good luck,
