Hi Erik, I dont know about your printer but I used LT-286 previously with a PLC , It is easy to use, i think there is no graphics available , By the way The only problem i had, it was not working without a high current supplying power supply, during startup it drew large current and reset everytime. I used a high current power supply to operate it. erikc wrote: > Hi all.
