ABSTRACT:
A keyboard for a computer system is provided. The keyboard comprises a housing having an upper surface defining an opening for a plurality of keys, a printer assembly positioned on a print media transport path within the housing, a print media entry slot defined in a first side of the housing, a print media ejection slot defined in a second side of the housing opposite the first side, a printer controller circuit positioned within the housing; and a serial bus for communicating with the computer system. The serial bus is operatively connected to the printer controller circuit. In use, print commands are received by the printer controller circuit from the computer system via the serial bus.
