PrintBall™ - First Tests

The PrintBall is like an Ink-Jet printer using a PaintBall Gun as printhead. The gun is mounted on a custom made pan & tilt unit which is connected to a Max/Msp based software through an Atmel chip [programmed in Basic]. The software allow the users to load and analyze images. The resolution of the image and the space between the point [definition the image] can be adjusted.
Because the document is printed from a central point the number of steps by points send to the pan & tilt, which is moved by two stepper motors, one for each axes horizontal and vertical, determine the space between each point.

Try CYM in order, you can definitly decrease the dot pitch I think and accelerate the raster.
