Nadler <craig@nadler.us> - - - -GENERAL -======= - -This driver may be used if you are writing printer firmware using Linux as -the embedded OS. This driver has nothing to do with using a printer with -your Linux host system. - -You will need a USB device controller and a Linux driver for it that accepts -a gadget / "device class" driver using the Linux USB Gadget API. After the -USB device controller driver is loaded then load the printer gadget driver. -This will present a printer interface to the USB Host that your USB Device -port is connected to. - -This driver is structured for printer firmware that runs in user mode. The -user mode printer firmware will read and write data from the kernel mode -printer gadget driver using a device file. The printer returns a printer status -byte when the USB HOST sends a device request to get the printer status. The -user space firmware can read or write this status byte using a device file -/dev/g_printer . Both blocking and non-blocking read/write calls are supported. - - - - -HOWTO USE THIS DRIVER -===================== - -To load the USB device controller driver and the printer gadget driver. The -following example uses the Netchip 2280 USB device controller driver: - -modprobe net2280 -modprobe g_printer - - -The follow command line parameter can be used when loading the printer gadget -(ex: modprobe g_printer idVendor=0x0525 idProduct=0xa4a8 ): - -idVendor - This is the Vendor ID used in the device descriptor. The default is - the Netchip vendor id 0x0525. YOU MUST CHANGE TO YOUR OWN VENDOR ID - BEFORE RELEASING A PRODUCT. If you plan to release a product and don't - already have a Vendor ID please see www.usb.org for details on how to - get one. - -idProduct - This is the Product ID used in the device descriptor. The default - is 0xa4a8, you should change this to an ID that's not used by any of - your other USB products if you have any. It would be a good idea to - start numbering your products starting with say 0x0001. - -bcdDevice - This is the version number of your product. It would be a good idea - to put your firmware version here. - -iManufacturer - A string containing the name of the Vendor. - -iProduct - A string containing the Product Name. - -iSerialNum - A string containing the Serial Number. This should be changed for - each unit of your product. - -iPNPstring - The PNP ID string used for this printer. You will want to set - either on the command line or hard code the PNP ID string used for - your printer product. - -qlen - The number of 8k buffers to use per endpoint. The default is 10, you - should tune this for your product. You may also want to tune the - size of each buffer for your product. - - - - -USING THE EXAMPLE CODE -====================== - -This example code talks to stdout, instead of a print engine. - -To compile the test code below: - -1) save it to a file called prn_example.c -2) compile the code with the follow command: - gcc prn_example.c -o prn_example - - - -To read printer data from the host to stdout: - - # prn_example -read_data - - -To write printer data from a file (data_file) to the host: - - # cat data_file | prn_example -write_data - - -To get the current printer status for the gadget driver: - - # prn_example -get_status - - Printer status is: - Printer is NOT Selected - Paper is Out - Printer OK - - -To set printer to Selected/On-line: - - # prn_example -selected - - -To set printer to Not Selected/Off-line: - - # prn_example -not_selected - - -To set paper status to paper out: - - # prn_example -paper_out - - -To set paper status to paper loaded: - - # prn_example -paper_loaded - - -To set error status to printer OK: - - # prn_example -no_error - - -To set error status to ERROR: - - # prn_example -error - - - - -EXAMPLE CODE -============ - - -#include <stdio.h> -#include <stdlib.h> -#include <fcntl.h> -#include <linux/poll.h> -#include <sys/ioctl.h> -#include <linux/usb/g_printer.h> - -#define PRINTER_FILE "/dev/g_printer" -#define BUF_SIZE 512 - - -/* - * 'usage()' - Show program usage. - */ - -static void -usage(const char *option) /* I - Option string or NULL */ -{ - if (option) { - fprintf(stderr,"prn_example: Unknown option \"%s\"!\n", - option);
