I have a thermal printer(ESC/POS) already configured on my linux machine and using the terminal command (as root) I can make it print:

echo "Hello!" > /dev/usb/lp0

However, doing the same procedure in golang nothing happens:

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "os"
)

func main() {
   fmt.Println("Hello Would!")

   f, err := os.Open("/dev/usb/lp0")

   if err != nil {
       panic(err)
   }

   defer f.Close()

   f.Write([]byte("Hello world!"))
}

What am I doing wrong?
