The aim of this project is to make latte printer, I used 1 printers and 1 scanner , it prints one line a time, all what I have done is hacking the sensors of the printer and I used Arduino Uno to send different values to printer's micro-controller created custom shield to control stepper motor and do other taskes ... ,simply I fooled the printer, make it print with no papers :)
