I never knew printers could be so... programmable.

Isn't that a scanner? Seen something similiar before but this was definitely a good rendering of the tune. Props.

Whatever. To quote Bart Simpson: I can do that; I just don't want to.
But seriously, though, this guy has a lot of time on his hands and that was badass.

It's actually a CNC machine, despite what the video title says. There's another video of the same machine playing the Super Mario Bros. theme, but this Zelda tune is MUCH better.
That was awesome. Thanks for the link... No pun intended...

This is not the first time I've heard of this. Paul Slocum acutally created a way to use a dot matrix printer as a musical instrument (http://www.qotile.net/dotmatrix.html)
There's also some models of scanner that have an easter egg where they play music using their stepper motor. The video for it is easily found on YouTube, but I'm just a bit too lazy to put it up here.

Yeah, I knew about this years back when I bought a Tree Wave CD from him at the Oklahoma Videogame Expo. Pretty cool. So this whole "laser printer playing Zelda music" doesn't impress me too much. Seen it already.

You guys are a tough crowd if you didn't find that impressive at all.

Hey, I liked it. I'd just seen it done before. I did say this was a good rendition though :D
