The software is not ported yet to any LPC platform.

The biggest issue with porting is that they do not have an EEPROM, which is normally used by Aprinter to store configuration values. To allow configuration storage, it would make sense to use the SD card with a FAT filesystem - which is not implemented in any way in Aprinter at the moment. Currently the only way to use an SD card is to print from directly, without a filesystem.

On the other hand if one is to manually wire an SPI EEPROM, then it is a much easier porting target. Of course functionality would still be limited by the design of Aprinter (raw SD print only).
