# Usage

You can load the ROM onto a flash cart or in an emulator. The key mapping is as follows:

- D-Pad to choose a character from the map

- A selects the current character

- B deletes the last character

- SELECT sets the color scheme (black on white or white on black) and rotation

- START prints the current string

If your printer is properly connected, the printer icon will show a checkmark symbol.

# Compilation

The ROM can be compiled with [GBDK 2020](https://github.com/gbdk-2020/gbdk-2020). The repository contains a Makefile for Linux and Windows with WSL that will work if you clone it in the gbdk folder. For convenience, a compiled ROM is provided in the [releases](https://github.com/reini1305/gb_bannerprinter/releases).
