Printing ASCII Art with an Arduino and a Vintage Printer
I found a vintage Diconix ink jet printer for $4 at the thrift store. Let's print ASCII art with it, using an Arduino nano, and a few odds and ends!
Did you know that before computers, ASCII art was known as typewriter art, and it dates back to at least 1867? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII_art#Typewriter_art
