Just wanted to let you guys know that the retroprinter is amazing!
We use it to make pdf report from an industrial weight.

Got the module with the inverse wiring on bottom row, switched pin 21 to pin 15 on the db25 connector and it worked ;)

Thanks for creating such an well developed solution.

Glad to hear it. A few more details about the industrial weight (scales?) you are using it with and maybe a sample PDF would be nice - it might help find others who have the same equipment find out about the Retro-Printer. :D

That is interesting - are the columns not lined up on a proper printout?
