 +This is a general purpose thermal printer with no specific project in mind yet.
 +
 +You can communicate with it via USB, using [ESC/POS](https://download4.epson.biz/sec_pubs/pos/reference_en/escpos/index.html). There's a good guide for setting it up [here](https://mike42.me/blog/2015-03-getting-a-usb-receipt-printer-working-on-linux).
 +
 +## Printing images
 +
 +You can use [png2pos](https://github.com/mikersee/png2pos) (currently installed on the lab computer) to print images. The output can be directly piped to `/dev/usb/lp0`.
