Re: [AVR-Chat] Thermal printer questions

2006-03-27 by James Hatley

Hello,

Maybe it is too obvious or you have tried it but...

How about calling the local Seiko representative and ask for some help
getting a data sheet? Most reps are pretty good about helping you out.

We have used Seiko displays and their datasheets are buried sometimes in
strange web sites. Try to get some help from them.
