Build an "Internet of Things" connected mini printer that performs dynamic tasks at your command. This interactive weekend project features a beautifully designed laser-cut case, effortlessly blending style and functionality.
Once assembled, the mini printer connects wirelessly to access and print Internet data onto 2 1/4" wide receipt paper. Operated by a Raspberry Pi computer, this project harnesses the power of a mini Linux system. Use our example Python code for diverse printouts like daily weather forecasts, sudoku puzzles, images, and Twitter-based content.
All code is proudly open-source, perfect for tailored printer software development. The project is suited for those familiar with Raspberry Pi setups with minimal soldering and assembly required. The kit includes essentials like the mini receipt printer, BPA-free 50-foot receipt paper, a 5V 4A power adapter, and a 16GB card with NOOBS 3.1, excluding the Raspberry Pi itself.
Compatible with variations such as Raspberry Pi Zero, Zero W, B+, 2, or Pi 3, we recommend using a Pi 3 or Pi Zero W for integrated WiFi convenience. For Pi Zero users, a 2x20 header is needed to solder and connect components. Experience the thrill of IoT exploration with this innovative, accessible project, complete with comprehensive build tutorials.
