Printer Firmware Framework

Our constant endeavour to provide solutions that offer value to customers has resulted in the development of a printer firmware framework for receipt and label printer markets. This unique framework is based on architecture that is completely OS & Hardware independent.

The framework has modular Bar code & Font Engines and currently supports over 28 Bar code types including Linear & 2D types with more than 120 commands from ZPLII & SPPR200 commands sets.

This printer firmware framework is proven on an ARM9 CPU platform with Linux 2.6.2x as the base kernel. It has been tested for performance & functionality using 2 to 4" impact printer mechanisms like SPPR200 & SRP770 with ZPLII & SPPR200 command sets emulation with print speeds of up to 310mm/S.

Some of the key benefits of our printer firmware framework solution are:

  • Easily portable to any new RTOS environment such as VxWorks, Integrity, etc.
  • Easily portable to any new CPU / MCU platform of choice with very minimal engineering effort
  • Excellent support for addition of new command sets and/or adaptations to any new command sets
