Digital Assistant & Networked Thermal Priter

After posting on their forum, they promptly got back to me to let me know how to reset and print a test page.

Plug in power and hold feed button at the same time

Printer works fine now.

Thermal printer has seemed to have given up on life, and doesnt really feed or print anymore, sent a message to adafruit to see if there is anything about it that is serviceable.. luckily 30$ for a knew one isnt too bad.

I got all my own code up and running on the new 64gb sd.

My weather api is failing and I haven't tracked the issue yet.

I installed Jasper and now am trying to satisfy all the dependencies.

Stuck with trying to get openfst and phonetisaurus....

Jasper install was a fail due to lack of space, ordered new 64gig SDcard to my surprise, when dd'ing the original 8gig to the new card, i found i couldnt expand the file system. One full day later i gave up and started from scratch, is moving quickly and i am updating the instructions and this "blog" as a whole. lesson learned, if you have a permanent or semi-permanent project dont use the NOOBS install, you cannot expand the file system later.
