this was amazing on the stream
By the way, I added the source code in the NFO if you want to check how this thing is programmed :)
Some information: You switch the printer to "graphic" mode by sending the code 18, back to text with the code 17.
In graphic mode you use some prefixed commands to do things:
I -> Set the origin point
H -> Go back to the origin
Sn -> Set the character size (from 0 to 63)
Cn -> Set the color (from 0 to 3)
Ln -> Set the line type (from 0 for full to 15 for dashed)
M, D, R, J -> Used to move or draw in relative or absolute coordinates
The printer has a 0.2mm accuracy on 480 "pixels" in width on the paper, and all the move commands accept coordinates in the -999 to +999 range.
And yes it's slow as a snail, it needs to move the carriage to the left hand side to access the barrel selector gear to select the next color.
I did not really try to optimize pen movements, ideally one should do a short path computing algorithm starting with black, then switch to blue, then green and finally red :)

lol
Yes!
like
so rad!
this is the future of the demoscene \o/
LOL :)
:)
It was enjoyable on the videostream.
More like this!!
The cup of coffee is sure an important coding tool!
Baah: I'm glad somebody noticed :)
Cool :) And yes, no $c0de without $c0ff33!
I think this is a bit too slow to be really interesting. Also, next time, you should probably make thicker lines, because it was really hard to see anything on the bigscreen. :-)
Doubling the lines would have make it twice as slow :)
oldschool computer screen technologies here.
WTF?! ;-)
Crazy stuff! Like it!
