Thank you for your replay. I Successfully interfaced this printer using SPI

[quote userid="73165" url="~/f/nordic-q-a/42486/ftp-628-mcl101-103-interface-with-nrf52832/165698"]I looked at the datasheet [/quote]

From that, the part number Darshansm5549 gave - FTP-628 MCL101/103 - seems to be just the bare mechanism.

It looks like Fujitsu expect you to buy one of their Interface Boards to provide a Serial, Parallel, or USB connection.

Darshansm5549 - if you want to interface directly to the mechanism, then you are going to have to contact Fujitsu direct for the necessary interface details. This is nothing to do with Nordic.

In general, how to interface anything to anything else: www.8052mcu.com/.../160143

Hi,

I looked at the datasheet of the printer and it doesn't seem that it supports SPI. Why do you want to use SPI between the printer and the nRF52? Are you using the DK or just the IC itself? A converter would be necessary if you're just using the IC.

What support, exactly, do you need?

Have you looked at the nRF52832 documentation and examples to understand how its SPI peripheral works?
