This shield allows you to connect a HP C6602 inkjet cartridge to your Arduino turning it into a 96dpi print platform. It only uses 5 pins which can be jumper selected to avoid other shields. It is designed with a Arduino Mega footprint but fully supports both the Arduino and the Arduino Mega. It uses all through-hole components to make assembly easy even for beginners. Features Compatible with Arduino and Arduino Mega Uses only 5 user selectable pins Stackable (up to 11 Inkshields on Ardunio, 15 on Mega) On-board 20V boost converter for inkjet head Accepts 9-12V input via optional power connector or from the Arduino Vin Auxiliary input header offers support for other microcontrollers Auxiliary output header supports an extension cable to the inkjet head Power and Pulse activity LEDs ISCP header and Reset button All through-hole components This will be the first official release location.
