Notes:
When the remaining space in the receive buffer drops to 16 bytes, the printer status becomes "buffer
full" and it remains "buffer full" until the space in the receive buffer increases to 26 bytes.
The printer ignores the data received when the remaining space in the receive buffer is 0 bytes.
20 DTR Output 1) When DTR/DSR control is selected, this signal indicates whether
the printer is busy. SPACE indicates that the printer is ready to
receive data, and MARK indicates that the printer is busy. The busy
condition can be changed by using DIP SW 2-1 as follows:
2) When XON/XOFF control is selected:
The signal indicates whether the printer is correctly connected and
is ready to receive data. SPACE indicates that the printer is ready to
receive data. The signal is always SPACE except in the following
cases:
• During the period from when the power is turned on to when
the printer is ready to receive data
• During the self-test
25 INIT Input Changing the DIP switch setting enables this signal to be used as a
reset signal for the printer.
The printer is reset when the signal remains SPACE for 1 ms or more.
XON/XOFF transmit timing When XON/XOFF control is selected, the printer
transmits XON or XOFF signals as follows. Transmit
timing differs depending on the DIP SW2-1 setting.
