USB Printer #52

Closed mungle closed 8 years ago

mungle commented 8 years ago

Hello! I get this tiny printer from adafruit (https://www.adafruit.com/products/2751) that have USB connection too but I'm unable to make it works with your project... I edited the /boot/cmdline.txt line changing kgdboc=ttyAMA0,19200 to kgdboc=ttyUSB0,19200 but it didn't works! Any help?

Solved editing the pi-printer.rb In the first lines you can find ttyAMA0. Change to ttyUSB0. Scrolling down you can find def serial here change the serial number

You should also be able to provide your custom serial port file descriptor as an argument to Printer.new here. :)
