I am developing one Printer App with Blue Bamboo printer. I want to Print one Image through it but I am unable to convert it to unsigned char array as they provide in sample code. How can I do this? Here is a sample code which they provide. 

 unsigned char buffer3[796]={

  • Take a look at [this answer](http://stackoverflow.com/a/6476959/90172). And it really depends on what data format your printer is expecting. – Hvordan har du det Jan 07 '13 at 07:12
  • It takes only in the mentioned formate. Thats why I want to convert my image to unsigned char array. – parth vasavada Jan 07 '13 at 07:19
  • Just googled `0x55 , 0x66 , 0x77 , 0x88 , 0x44 , 0x1B , 0x58 , 0x31`, seems there's an [exact duplicate question](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7036868/how-to-print-image-with-bluebamboo-device-using-objective-c), and [this one](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14093143/how-do-i-convert-a-hex-array-into-a-uiimage) is probably what you need. – Hvordan har du det Jan 07 '13 at 07:35
  • yes you are right Rox but unfortunately it is for MAC OS **NSBitmapImageRep** and **TIFFRepresentation** is not working in iOS. – parth vasavada Jan 07 '13 at 09:17
