Hello, I have interfaced a centronics dot matrix printer with the 8051 controller. I am able to print the text on it. Now I have a application in which I have to print a graph using its graphics mode on to it. How can we print a graph using the dot matrix printer through a microcontroller. Also, what is the ASCII code for the form feed (FF) character? Regards, Mohit
Form feed - 0Ch Line feed - 0Ah Carriage return - 0Dh on some printers you need to send both CR & LF, or ther is usually a switch setting that interprets a CR as a CR & LF.
