Interfacing fujitsu thermal printer(ftp628mcl103) with at91sam7s256 controller".

[anilment]

hi every one.

I'm doing a project on "Interfacing fujitsu thermal printer(ftp628mcl103) with at91sam7s256 controller".

I have read the working of TPH(thermal printer head).In this,suppose we want to send a character 'A' that to be printed. Normally the controller will consider
the hex equivalent=65(or in binary 0110 0101).But according to TPH working,
we'll just get the four dots of those particular heated elements(logic 1 feilds in the binary equivalent) . my question is "how the character 'A' gets printed".


waiting for your reply.

The head prints dot matrix character, line by line, and is segmented.

Thank you for your support andre_teprom.

i have another query.

what size of matrix should i consider for printing characters(A to Z, 0 to 9 and other special characters like %,* etc. and how many lines should i take and how can i measure the character width.

waiting for your reply.

hi everyone.

long back i posted a query regarding ftp628mcl103 thermal printer interfacing with at91sam7s256 controller.Now,i can able to print the data on the thermal paper using serial interface.

my current problem is regarding software(coding) part. Actually this printer has got 384 heater elements.i can able to manage of printing 24 characters of size 16*16(i.e., i'm initializing a array of size 24 and accepting only those 24 characters). my question is how should i write the code in such a way that if i increase the size of the array to 100 , it should manage printing the 100 characters (i.e., 24 characters on each line and it should go to next line after printing every 24 characters).

I'll be so thankful if any one reply me about this, since i need to submit my project in this week.

Thanks in advance.

Hi anilment,
I am doing the same thing but My controller is different I am using STM32F4 series. Can you send me your code for reference at m.vish88@yahoo.com or upload here.
thanks in advance.

Hi Anilment!

I have been assigned a task by the supervisor for the interface of any thermal printer with AVR microcontroller. I am very good in microcontroller programming but I dont know that from where to start reading related literature.
As far as your problem is concerned i.e. you want to shift to new line after 24 characters, you can send the command of new line to the printer after every 24 increments of index pointer of the array.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I need to interface Fujitsu628MCL103 mechanism with STM32 micro controller.
I have hard time in interfacing it to my STM32.
If any of you interfaced with any of the micro controller,could you please share the code.
Thank you in advance
