NiimBridge: reconstructing the NIIMBOT D110_M print protocol
NiimBridge reconstructs the NIIMBOT D110_M printer's Bluetooth print exchange from HCI captures of the vendor Android app. Its Kotlin driver implements packet framing, checksums, row encoding, transport, and print-state handling; a separate SDK and diagnostic app expose printing and packet inspection. The author reports byte-identical packet comparisons for two captured jobs.
