Hi Mathieu, Hi all
after all searchung the papers, reading about pins and ESC/P, i got the printer now, so i could start to test. and it could be parallel, usb or serial. I would prefer serial, but if there are better solutions....?
could you give me a glue how to start? i could not find out how to print lets say "hello world" from PD. is it just to send the asciis to the printer, or do i need hex? sorry for beeing so supernude ;-)
thank you in advance markus

I know nothing about this printer in particular, but if it's a new machine with a RS232 port, I suspect that it's because of systems that still use the old Epson protocol:
yes it is a new one. And now I will check the papers
yes I understood that it's a new one, I just mean "for any new machines with a RS232 port, it's probably because of systems that still use the old Epson protocol". I say that so that you understand my reasoning. You could use that idea to pick different hardware if you need to or if you find any other reason why anything else would be better.
