Hello pauloreis and welcome to UCF! You should introduce yourself.

Hmm, that is an interesting idea. As far as I know (I may be wrong), the CFX-9850 only has BASIC, no C. If that is correct, then I don't think your idea will work as the BASIC serial port functions are pretty much nil.

Hi i have updated my information and i am 29 yrs old. And yes i think you are correct: CFX9850 only uses BASIC but do you think it is possible anyway? I am saying this because CFX 9850 can be linked to a computer and also to old CASIO LABEL PRINTER. If possible can you tell me more what you mean by Serial port are nil?

Well, Casio-BASIC as far as I know only supports serial port access for the EA-200. Now, I may be wrong, since you mentioned a printer? But if you wanted to make it work with a modern printer you may have to use an Arduino or RaspberryPi to interpret the serial commands and change them to something the printer can understand.

I was thinking about using ARDUINO too but for that i dont need my calculator.

I really aprecciate your reply
