Print Bridge

This project enables seamless communication between a laboratory incubator and a thermal printer for instant printing of logs, reports, or alerts. The system collects data stored in csv or plkx format from the incubator’s USB/serial interface, processes it automatically, and prints it immediately without manual intervention. It ensures smooth data transfer, fast printing, and reliable operation in laboratory environments.

Key Features:

✅ Multi-Format Data Support – Reads and interprets Excel (.xlsx) and PDF files exported from the incubator without any manual conversion.
✅ Auto USB Data Extraction – Automatically detects the incubator’s USB drive or serial data stream and retrieves files in real time.
✅ Instant Thermal Printing – Processes the extracted file and prints critical records immediately through a connected thermal printer.
✅ Serial/USB Communication Interface – Supports USB host, RS-232, and TTL serial communication based on the incubator’s output type.
✅ Real-Time Processing – Converts and formats data instantly for thermal printing, eliminating delays and ensuring fast results.
✅ Dual Power Compatibility – Operates using power supplied from the incubator’s USB port or via an external 5V/12V adapter for stable and continuous use.
✅ Compact Embedded Design – Built on a reliable embedded platform (Raspberry Pi / Orange Pi / PIC / ARM), offering efficient operation in a small footprint.
✅ Continuous 24/7 Operation – Engineered for round-the-clock performance in laboratory and industrial environments.
