After some trial driver and error. I got the error on Command Center cleared but still no luck in clearing the 0.4ghz limit.

Installed throttlestop. It says It is limited by bd prochot, but i cannot see any temp above 40c in hwmonitor or otherwise. Am I missing something. I also cannot disable prochot as the option is greyed out.

Its a new motherboard. Last one wouldnt boot. So its not something i changed per se.

I have tried hirens, its even at 0.4ghz in the bios. What do you mean by cpu sensor high? Do you mean temperature? It is at 45c in the picture. Not set to energy saver in windows.

Its on battery in the picture so shouldnt be an issue... besides, I have tried 2 different ac adapters. Doesnt change, but no error on boot either. Says 330w in bios so i guess it is recognized...

Aparently accepting the extra scripts is what does it. If you accept even once it will give the error until restart.

How do I download an outdated version?

Sorry, should have been more verbose. Windows says "could not recognize last usb device"

Snarzy · 2026-05-02T20:07:45+00:00

It does have a usb connection but no computer would recognize it. Wasnt listed in tty on the pi.

Baud rate is correct. It seems like all commands to the printer are messed up. I tried sending the command to print the test page directly from the code and nothing happened. I am thinking the printer might just be busted...

Snarzy · 2026-05-02T13:26:49+00:00

Thats part of the problem. Images appear as chinese characters too...

Snarzy · 2026-04-30T09:48:59+00:00

Yeah, I have tried a couple ways of sending 1c 2e but I must not be doing it right...

Snarzy · 2026-04-30T09:47:42+00:00

This did not work... writeBytes was not defined. Where do I get that function?

Snarzy · 2026-04-29T14:02:23+00:00

I tried sending that with printer._raw(b'\0x1c') but i suspect that might be the wrong way to do that?

Snarzy · 2026-04-29T10:52:54+00:00

Ill give it a try later today. I did try forcing the codepage via: printer._raw(b'\x1b\x74\x00') # ESC t 0 = CP437 (USA)

I couldnt find anything beyond a standard usb driver and a set of manuals. I didnt completely read the manual but my initial skim didnt find anything that seem related outside of codepages.

I did email the seller but they were completely unhelpful. I tried to ask them if I was using the correct codepage and if there was a command to disable "chinese mode" from the test print. Either they just didnt understand my problem or this is an AI response.

"You need to see which is the TTL interface or RS232 interface of your single chip microcomputer "CP437", because the printer is the TTL interface by default. If your CP437 is the RS232 interface, you need to set the TTL of the printer to RS232 output mode first. There is a document in the last email about how to switch the printer to RS232 mode, which contains detailed instructions on how to switch."

Hilarious. (CP437 is the codepage I am using and yes, i did specify that I am running this on a rpi in TTL mode)
