need to use **broken link removed** with a PIC 18 Series controller. 18F452 or 18F4550. The printer (Chinese) data/Command set says it is EPSON POS. Here is the datasheet. I can understand the connections for the serial port to be connected to the printer also . But Apart from TX, RX and GND, I would like to know which other lines in the DB9 connector of the printer should be controlled from PIC to execute all printer commands.
Also I am new to printing. I will be having a log of data in my Controller Board. (It is in a EEPROM Which I can load into MCU RAM). But How to create this format and all for printing, I have no idea. Can I get some examples to start from? Basically I need to Print some data in a table form. Columns and raw lines are not needed.
Thanks
