This is cool. Please make it so its not just for news and developer friendly so it can print any content on demand using api. Tried to use a "memobird" printer for similar purpose but couldn't get any support for their API.
You can write your own script to do this. It's a few lines of scripting to query whatever APIs you want, and then output to /dev/usb0 or wherever the printer is hooked up. Seems a bit unnecessary to add an extra API wrapper just to do that
You can test this right now by running `echo "Hello, world!" > /dev/usb0`, assuming a printer is connected to that USB port of your Unix-based device.
Interesting.i have always known usb0 exists but didnt think this would work. Now i am wondering what the equivalent command to print using bluetooth printers is.
