Design of Control System for Inkjet Printer

Abstract

The ink jet printer not only focused on the professions such as beer, drink and the mineral water, but also start to develop in electric, non-staple foodstuff, cigarette and the battery industries. This thesis is primarily designed for ink jet printer control system. The design is to make PC104 receive the security code from Network, spurt the code and save the f ile after transmitting to the ink jet printer. We transmit the file to the manufacturers to ensure the accuracy of the security code, It is helpful for users to inquire about information, ensure the authenticity of goods and prevent shoddy goods.In this thesis, we use Visual Basic to achieve t serial communications, network communication, data exchanging and file storage. We use VB serial communication components-MSComm to transmit data; use the Winsock controller for net communication, to establish communication with remote computer through TCP; use VB Timer controller to ensure the normal connection of net and achieve the set for file’s memory. Because the PC104 has characteristics of small, cheap and embedded. Jet printing tasks which is ordered by system are accomplished successful by the PC104 controller in this thesis.
