So I'm trying to set-up a wifi thermal printer and want to be able to do a url or a 'form' data entry.
My webserver works and this works as well http://192.168.1.100/?TEXT=123
However I'm getting this error
Here is my code.
I'm not sure if I need the mdns thing (not quite sure what it is, I assume it's an easier way to access the webpage without knowing the ip.
So I am assuming its the thermal printer as when going over 32 characters is usually an automatic crash.
e.g. http://192.168.1.100/?TEXT=123456789012 ... 4567890123
If I turn comment out the printer aspect, it works =/
any ideas how to fix this? I'm not sure if its a buffer issue or something... I was thinking that cutting the input into small chunks and print in chunks might fix this, but not sure how to do it.
Thanks in advance.
