Hi Mathieu, Hi all after all searchung the papers, reading about pins and ESC/P, i got the printer now, so i could start to test. and it could be parallel, usb or serial. I would prefer serial, but if there are better solutions....?
could you give me a glue how to start? i could not find out how to print lets say "hello world" from PD. is it just to send the asciis to the printer, or do i need hex? sorry for beeing so supernude ;-) thank you in advance markus > On Wed, 4 Mar 2009, bra...@subnet.at wrote: >> On 3 Mar 2009, ma...@artengine.ca wrote: >>> I know nothing about this printer in particular, but if it's a new >>> machine >>> with a RS232 port, I suspect that it's because of systems that still >>> use >>> the old Epson protocol: >> yes it is a new one.
