Controller for a modular printer and image capture arrangement
First Claim
1. A controller for a modular printer and image capture arrangement, the controller comprising a bus;
- micro-controller circuitry connected to the bus;
an input interface connected to the bus and configured to permit at least data from an image capture device to be written to the bus;
a memory connected to the bus and configured to store program data and at least the image data; and
a printhead interface connected to the bus and configured to permit print data to be written to a pagewidth printhead.

Abstract
A controller for a modular printer and image capture arrangement includes a bus. Micro-controller circuitry is connected to the bus. An input interface is connected to the bus and is configured to permit at least data from an image capture device to be written to the bus. A memory is connected to the bus and is configured to store program data and at least the image data. A printhead interface is connected to the bus and configured to permit print data to be written to a pagewidth printhead.
