- f0cus10 2mo agoi have a label printer that's in the same boat. I wonder how many tokens this convo was
- trollbridge 2mo agoI did a similar project for another make of printer, but used DS Flash and GPT-5.6-Sol, so it was effectively free ($2-$3 of Flash and maybe 5% of a monthly Max sub, so $10?)
- asveikau 2mo agoIt didn't write a driver. It used a linux driver. You don't need an LLM.
- altmanaltman 2mo agosomeone already burned those tokens for you: https://github.com/farafonoff/Brother-DCP-T230-MacOS-driver https://github.com/farafonoff/Brother-DCP-T230-MacOS-driver
- thrownaway561 2mo agoI don't see anywhere in the post or the repo how much it cost him to do this in tokens.
- kuberwastaken 2mo ago~4-5% of my monthly max usage so like ~$10
- TacticalCoder 2mo ago> my Brother dcp-t230 also doesn't have macos drivers and it's a usb only printer. Same thing here brother: DCP-L2510D (laser printer + scanner). Wife is on MacOS and cannot print/scan from there, so I'm the scanman.
- qurren 2mo ago> if i ever get some tokens to burn The real trick is to have the AI do something that makes its own money, then tokens are effectively free. People who are complaining about token costs aren't trying.
