CPython Library for thermal printers like the QR701 or Adafruit Mini Thermal Receipt Printer. Developed as a C Extension for Python.
As this is my first real project developed mainly in C++, I am very much happy for feedback and help.
This project can be build using the supplied setup.py file:
python setup.py install
See example.py for a working example.
socat PTY,link=./serial-port,raw,echo=1 -A portion of this code is heavily inspired by mbedded.ninja's blog post about Linux Serial Ports Using C/C++ and the Adafruit Thermal Printer Library for Arduino.
