Chapter 10 - Serial Interface

 

 

Ready/Busy

This is the hardware flow control for the serial interface on the DR printers. By raising/lowering the voltage level on Pin 20 of the RS232 port, the printer notifies the host when it is ready to receive data. Pin 40 (RS) and Pin 20 (DR) are the important signals on the printer for this method of flow control. The host must be capable of supporting this flow control method for it to function properly. The selection of 1 item or multi items print buffer can be set by DIP switch.

Data stream (ESC + “A” ~ ESC + “Z”) from host might not be fully received by printer under the following conditions:

Printer is in printing process during Single Job Buffer Mode.

Printer is engaged with error condition.
