ePaper M42
4.2" - e-Ink Display
- Overview
- Commands
- On-Module Code
e-Ink (ePaper) displays only need power to update the screen. But then power can be disconnected and the display will retain the graphics with zero power requirements.
This display works via the graphics internal services with 2x pixel multiplier, giving the user 200x150 pixels.

Peek under the hood
The script below is this module's driver — it teaches the hardware how to respond to the commands listed above. It ships pre-loaded from the factory; most users never need to open it.
