The Retro-Printer has long been used with the Atari range of computers. However when asked by a recent customer, we realised that it was not too clear on how to set this up.
When used with an Atari, we found that certain characters in a text printout were being repeated.
The solution is to change the setting in /root/config/printer_delay
Use a value of 50.
This delay affects the timing of the handshaking signals - with the default value of 5, it appears that the Atari sometimes misses the ACK signal and resends the same byte.
