HP Inkjet Printer Attachment

This item is no longer carried by P'lax. Anyone have one that they would sell?

I am setting up an acceleration study for students and need a way to mark the location of the bot at regular time intervals. I think by running the Boe-Bot on white paper and printing a dot every 100 mSec I should have a record of location every 100 mSec. Form that get velocity and acceleration.

In case you can't get me through forum, email john at kauffmans dot org.

Thanks.

    No guarantees John, but tonight I'll look in my "old supplies" box and see if I have any left.
    You're talking about the print-head holder, right?

    Matt, he'll probably need the control board too. And maybe the mounting hardware pieces as well.

    I need the whole kit so I can squirt a dot every 100mSec as the BoeBot accelerates across a paper.
    Thanks.

    Hello John -
    Sorry it took so long. The only thing I could find was one slightly modified print-head holder. Now that being said, the driver circuit to "squirt a dot" is pretty simple (you don't need the full board that Parallax used to sell).
    Let me know if you're interested.
    -Matt
