@electron_greg@oldbytes.space maybe just a different tv adaptor, same functionality but alternate layout, eg, change of component supplier over the life of the product.

With windows it would print whatever text there was in whatever you sent it, so it worked fine with eg. Word documents. Looking for similar functionality.
Currently thinking of setting up a small windows server to act as a print driver, and sending prints to that from the apples. Not sure if that would work…

@CLondoner92 that’s good news but a bit of a shame about the google thing when https://bustimes.org/map does it already.
@Codeberg@social.anoxinon.de I’ve been trying to create my first codeberg repo today but just keep getting 500 server timeout errors.
So then i tried to raise an issue. Guess what happened when i clicked submit - yes, a 500 timeout error!
Any ideas please?
(In settings/account, i see “Activated” beside my email address, so assume i’ve created my account right.)

@bonkers@nerdculture.de yes, this is true. You can cat a text file to the port it’s attached to and i believe this is what most people do in this situation. I’m wanting to treat it like any other printer that you can send a document to from your normal text editor. (I don’t know enough about apple/linux to know if you can intercept that output, strip the escape codes from it and pipe it to the lpr port which could be another possible solution… )
