I got my hands on an old e-ink price tag and want to repurpose this display.

Unfortunately, I can't really figure out, what this type of connector/bus is called. To me it looks like a standard issue ribbon cable.

There are some "universal" e-paper drivers (for example this one: https://www.ebay.de/itm/353141399922), but I have absolutely no idea, how to find out, if that's the right connector.

The device is made by Imagotag, if that helps.

Edit: I added a picture of the panel: https://feddit.de/pictrs/image/42ee4f60-231a-4c42-9a66-6c369134c49c.jpeg

None of the "markings" returned any results and the QR code couldn't be decoded by my phone.

I don't have model number and there are zero indications to who manufactured it. I added a picture of the backside. That's everything readable on the panel. Nothing else.
