Thermal Printer & Netduino print quality issue

28 April 2013 - 03:40 AM

Hey there,

 

I purchased a thermal printer from adafruit a while back, and set it up with my netduino (plus 2), only to find the quality of the prints were not of the standard I had been expecting. I tried to problem solve, but was using the code provided in the netduino toolbox by Stefan exactly as it is documented, so I contacted adafruit to have a replacement sent out under the assumption that it was a hardware issue, which they did. The quality of the prints from this second printer are no better than the first.

 

Examples and further detail can be seen here http://forums.adafru...=182822#p182822

 

As this seems now to be a netduino specific/setup issue, I thought I'd consult the netduino forums as the adafruit forums are more hardware/product specific and they seem more equipped to help out with arduino related stuff.

 

Has anyone run into this issue, and if so, anyone know how to solve? The quality of my prints don't even seem to match up with those of the example netduino setup found here: http://netmftoolbox....pported devices

 

Thanks for any help, have a good day


Pass data to N+2 via ethernet?

27 April 2013 - 10:23 AM

Hi!

 

I'm new here, have a netduino that's been lying around, waiting to do something cool with it, and was wondering what the best solution is to pass data via ethernet to my Netduino (Netduino Plus 2). Simple HTTP stack or alike?

 

I'm looking to run one of those little thermal printers (Adafruit) off of it and send shopping lists and such to it to print from a pc based app (vb.net because that's my go-to language for fun and tinkering), so I'd basically like to be able to pass a couple strings to the board for processing from a sub, maybe be able to get the IP address of the client at a stretch.

 

Can anyone point me towards a library that could be helpful? Thanks for your time, have a good day.
