Hi guys,
First of all sorry for my bad English.
I'm starting a new project about printing on a special size paper with a device that already doing it, but it cant print QR code, so I should replace head with another thermal head and somehow program it/head/software(I really don't know) to print some text + QR code.
Head would be vertical in device and paper would pass it horizontally. Paper size is 17cm x 8.5cm. So i need a thermal head with at least 8.5cm length.
I selected "kyocera lea 55080" for this matter. It is 110mm length color thermal head and has 16 pin connector.
Now my question:
-Is there any kind of Arduino board that support this 16 pin print head and all of my needs?
-Is any of you guys has ANY experience with programming a board for printing with computer at ANY rate?
This is my FIRST CONTACT with any king of board for programming.
I really don't know what should I do or where should I begin or even worse "IS THIS FORUM FOR THIS MATTER?"
Thx a lot.
So, I would be grateful for any help from anyone of any kind.
I don't think any Arduino has the SRAM capacity or the processing power for what you want.
You say you have a "device that already doing it" but you have not told us what that is or whether it is using an Arduino.

Google is not able to find any documentation on that printer. Can you please supply a link to a data sheet or other technical document for the printer? that is the first step in engineering your project, not asking for help.
