I want to communicate with printer by using ruby language. i am using 
socket programming to communicate with printer. my printer ip is 
"192.168.24.687" and port number is "20000".

Below is the code that i am using to communicate with printer


require 'socket'
sock = TCPSocket.new('192.168.24.687', 20000)
sock.write 'MARK START'
sock.close


In the above code i am sending "MARK START" command to the printer which 
will turn printer ON , but it's not working. with above code i am able to 
established connection with remote server but not able to send "MARK START" 
command.

But the same is working with putty. with putty i am using connection type 
as "raw" and connecting to the printer.After connection is successful i can 
send command "MARK START" to putty and able to turn on printer.

I want to know why my code is not able to send "MARK START" command to 
printer??
