[Solved] Suport needed for my first lcdsmartie project

Post by TheOnlyOneMetalGod »

My display will not display the text correct. Need suport to solve this issue.
Display is connected with LPT1 port (ca 7 feet cable).

Update:

Shorted down the cable to ca 1,5 feet ( 40cm) and the text i displayed almost correct. I suspect that this problem is caused by EMI.
I've also tried diferent refresh-rates but that does'nt have any impact on this problem it seems...
