[Dave] has a game kid Printer as well as likes the Mario-themed Easter egg that prints while holding the feed button during power-up. When he heard that Microchip provided us some Fubarino boards for our Easter Egg Contest, this hardware promptly pertained to mind as well as he set out to add a Hackaday Easter egg to the printer.
To tinker with the hardware, [Dave] developed on the work of [Furrtek]—featured right here a few years ago—which simplified the process of printing directly from an Arduino board. linking the TX as well as RX lines of the Arduino triggers the new Easter egg. He demonstrates printing both of the hidden messages in the video below.
