A fully punchcard programmable dot matrix printer contraption. Includes programming instructions for the adventurous.

Version 1.5 - Now 4 Times Faster!

I added tensioners and idlers for the chain and switched from a mechanical clamping method to a magically appearing
stop gate. This allowed the chain to move more smoothly and quickly through the reader. A longer wheelbase keeps
the thing from tipping over with the increased starting and stopping speeds. I also left my debugging billboard intact
for those who want to see under the hood. Enjoy!

The printer is rather SLOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWW. But it does produce very clear, symmetrical, and readable text (unlike many other matrix printers on Algobox).

Other than it being slow, you did a great job on it! :tup:

Note taken. It was 3 in the morning when I finished up and finally got the thing working correctly. It just needed a little more tweaking.

MUCH better now! I also like the status display of the matrix and pins that you added. EXCELLENT JOB! :tup:
