Thermal Printer Controller

Unlike typical printer controllers, a single chip—an LPC2138 microcontroller—runs the Thermal Printer Controller. External memory isn’t required. A well-designed acceleration control system enables the printer to be run at full speed despite the limited amount of RAM used for the image buffer.
