TM4C1233H6PM: Where can get EVB of Thermal Printer Reference Design

Can I buy EVB?

Perhaps - should 'interest here' prove strong enough!      In learning that the vendor follows their (usual) practice of producing a 'reasonably' complete design package - yet 'minus' the pcb - my small Tech firm may be able to answer a, 'reasonably sized' need...    (i.e. it makes little sense to 'Tool Up' and produce 10-20 boards - our 'other' opportunities FAR EXCEED that!)     Answering such a request is 'outside' our usual practices - yet if one 'reads on' - it will become clear, 'How & Why' we just may be able to 'Produce & Provide' such 'Thermal Printer EVBs.'

It is expected that our effort would be, 'Price Advantaged' to the purchaser - as we could (optionally) include (both) the exact Seiko Thermal Printer (specified) & a variety of   'first class' - Thermally Sensitive/Printable Materials.    

Through my firm's, 'volume purchasing'  of the:

• Printed Circuit Boards
• Seiko Thermal Printers
• Proper Printable Materials

even, 'One-Off' - individual users - can achieve notable savings.    It may also be possible for my firm to, 'Pre-Purchase & Supply'  the major components - in a 'Kit Form.'    (for user assembly - which is 'as intended' - by (any) Reference Design.)     Again - 'ALL of this rests upon the 'degree of market's REAL interest' - in such a Thermal Printer/Project and/or Product.

For some time now - and (surprising to us) interest has been nicely growing in 'Thermal Printers.'       My small Tech firm has been considering 'partnering' with another firm - to produce a, 'More Expansive' version of the 'Thermal Printer Driver/Controller' board - which has (just) been noted here.

Our board differs from the one poster referenced in that:

• a variety of 'different Thermal Printers' are accommodated - our design accepts printers far wider than 48mm!   (poster's spec)
• a small graphic LCD (or OLED) may be optionally used in place of the 'PC' - to send 'Print Data' to the Thermal Printer & 'Confirm data's correctness.'
• power is provided by a custom 'Li-Ion' Battery Pack - able to run the printer for hours - AND 'Charge' one's cell-phone/similar devices!
• Well sought - additional 'unique' applications are also included - we prefer to reveal these (only) under NDA & to 'serious' customers
• it is expected that our 'purchase volume' will enable notable 'discounts' - (both) for the Thermal Printer & Multiple Types of 'Thermal Sensitive (Printed) Materials.'

It is likely that (some) of the above can be 'integrated' w/in the existing board design.   (Most likely via the addition of an additional board or two - and added, custom software.)

If interested - kindly respond via the forum's 'PM' - we never 'advertise' here - and in fact have simply responded to a poster's request - in which his 'board search' has, 'Failed to produce' the desired result...   (i.e. an actual pcb)
